A. B. and C. are incorrect expressions for the slope.
m (slope) = rise/run = y2-y1/x2-x1 = change in the independent variable relative to the change in dependent variable
y is the independent variable and x is the dependent variable
Since he descended 12 meters, we subtract this from the overall height of Mount Ka'ala, so then we are only calculating how high ABOVE the sea level it is.
1232 - 12 = 1220
The height of Mount Ka'ala is therefore 1,220 meters.
To calculate how much a fifth of Mount Ka'ala is (since the ranger station is 2/5's up), we would divide this number by 5
1220 ÷ 5 = 244
Since ONE fifth of the height is 244 meters, TWO fifths would be double that amount.
244 x 2 = 488
488 meters.
The ranger station is 488m above sea level.
Answer:
The answer is ( - 8, 8) in point form or in x = -8 , y= 8 in equation form.
Answer:
x ≈ - 6.74, 0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x - 5 = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )
x² + 6x = 5
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 5 + 9
(x + 3)² = 14 ( take square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ±
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 
Then
x = - 3 -
≈ - 6.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
x = - 3 +
≈ 0.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
Answer:
I think it's the third answer.
