Mathematics

Answer:

2 / 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the rise over the run.

In this case, the rise is 2 - (-6) = 2 + 6 = 8.

The run is 4 - (-16) = 4 + 16 = 20.

So, the slope is 8 / 20 = 4 / 10 = 2 / 5.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

the slope of the line that goes through (4,2) and (-16,-6) is 2/5

m= 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the slope we use the ∆y/∆x which is really the change in y over the change in x.

so all you have to do is find your y's and X's.

your y's are -6 and 2

your X's are -16 and 4

now in order to find the change in y and x you subtract your y's and x'x

the formula for this is:

∆y/∆x = y1-y2/x1-x2= (m aka the slope)

y1 is -6

and y2 is 2

-6 - 2 = -8

now do the X's

X1 is -16

and X2 is 4

-16 - 4 = -20

put that in fraction form and it's -8/-20

simplify that you get 2/5

What is the angle measure of 2x+1°
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

25 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Haha, awesome! Just did a problem like this!

All angles add up to 180, so set it up like this:

2x + 1 + 5x + 5 + 90 = 18

Combine like terms.

7x + 96 = 180

7x = 84

x = 12

Plug x back into 2x + 1

2(12) + 1

24 + 1

= 25 degrees

While we're at it...

5(12) + 5

60 + 5

= 65 degrees (for the other angle)

25 + 65 + 90 = 180

Math checks out & we're good to go!

Hope this helped. :) <3

ioda

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dentist's Office = 5/6 of an hour. An hours is 60 minutes

therefore he spent 5/6 x 60 = 50 minutes at the Dentist

1/10 of those 50 minutes were spent in the waiting room that is 1/10 x 50 = 5 minutes

Therefore Sam Spent 45 minutes at the Dentist office
