Answer:

The slope is 5/-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is y1-y2 over m1-m2 (rise over run). The first ordered pair is -2 (m1) and 11 (y1). We then subtract the second ordered pair (4 (m2) and -4 (y2)) from the first.

11 - (-4) = 11 + 4 = 15

-2 - 4 = -6

Remember, slope is rise over run (y over x), so the slope is 15/-6. Now, we must simplify. 15/-6 = 5/-2

Dean went wrong because he thought that slope was run over rise (x over y). If he had switched the two numbers, his answer would have been correct.

(SAT Prep) If the lengths of two sides of a triangle are 5 and 9 which would be length of the third side?
julia-pushkina [17]

The length of third side of triangle is 4 or 14.

According to the statement

we have given that the two sides of the triangle which are 5 and 9 and we have to find the length of the third side of triangle.

So, For this purpose, we know that the

If we had a triangle with sides a, b and c, then we can say

b-a < c < b+a

where b is larger than 'a'. This is the triangle inequality theorem

In this case, a = 5 and b = 9 so,

b-a < c < b+a

9-5 < c < 9+5

4 < c < 14

Telling us that c is some number between 4 and 14, not including either endpoint. If c is a whole number, then c could be any value from this set.

And

We see that the numbers 4 and 14 are in this set. The values 2 and 7 are not in the set.

So, The length of third side of triangle is 4 or 14.

This is the term in a polynomial without a variable. <br> Example: -6 in the expression 2x + 3y - 6
coldgirl [10]
It is called a constant.
Remember a "variable" means that the value of that term can change depending on the value of the "x" or "y". Since (in this case), -6 does not have a variable attached, it will not change, it will remain CONSTANT.
