What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (7, -4) and (7, 0)? Write your answer in the simplest form.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

The slop is undefined

i.e. $m=\infty$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the slope formula

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

As the points are (7, -4) and (7, 0)

Here:

(x₁, y₁) = (7, -4)

(x₂, y₂) = (7, 0)

$\mathrm{When\:}y_1\ne \:y_2\mathrm{\:and\:}\:x_1=x_2\mathrm{\:the\:slope\:is\:}\infty$

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$=\frac{\left(0-\left(-4\right)\right)}{\left(7-7\right)}$

$=\frac{0-\left(-4\right)}{0}$

$=\infty$

Therefore, the slop is undefined i.e. $m=\infty$

Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y = 3x-7 that

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:The equation of the line parallel to (3x - y = 7) passes through the point (-5, -3) is y = 3x + 2 and this can be determined by using the one-point slope form.

How does 2π/4 simplify to π/4?

lana [24]

It doesn't
remember that
(x/g) times (y/z)=(x time y)/(g times z) so
2pi/4=(2 times pi)/(4 times 1) so
2pi/4=2/4 times pi/1=1/2 times pi/1=pi/2

If s pool holds 22,000 gallon how long will it take to fill a pool at a rate of 400 gallon per minute round to the nearest tenth

worty [1.4K]

T=volume÷rate
this will cancel out gal and leave min

22000 gal ÷ 400 gal/min

55 min

Angle ABC measures 140°. Angle DBC bisects ∠ABC. Angle EBC bisects ∠DBC. What is the measure of ∠EBC?

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$\angle{EBC}=35\textdegree$

An angle bisector divides the angle measure into two equal parts. In triangle ABC, B is the point at which the angle lies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Picture segment BD drawn from point B of tri.ABC where it connects to segment AC, creating point D. Now picture E drawn on the newly created segment DC where it connects to point B and down to point C. Here's a drawing to better show this:

It's bisecting the bisected angle ABC. So, 140/2 = 70, and 70/2 = 35.
