What is the slope of the line that contains the points (–5, 6) and (14, –7)?

1 answer:

$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&&(~ -5 &,& 6~) 
% (c,d)
&&(~ 14 &,& -7~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-7-6}{14-(-5)}\implies \cfrac{-7-6}{14+5}\implies \cfrac{-13}{19}$

Using the definitions of odd and even functions, explain why y= sin x+1 is neither odd nor even.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is symmetric with respect to the origin therefore it is on odd function. The graph is symmetric to the y- axis therefore it is an even function. The majority of functions are neither odd nor even, however, sine and tangent are odd functions and cosine is an even function.

In kite ABCD, AB = BC and CD = DA. AB = (3x + 4), BC = x + 8, CD = y + 7, and DA = 2y + 5, find the perimeter of the kite

lana [24]

3x + 4 = x+ 8 > 3x - x = 2x > 2x + 4 = 8 > 8 - 4 = 4 > 2x / 2 crosses out > 4 / 2 = 2 > x=2
2y + 5 = y + 7 > 2y - y = y > y+ 5 = 7 > 7-5= 2 > y=2

the perimeter of the kite is 4
