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

HELP PLEASE!!
pogonyaev

Answer:

You need to have both the opposite and adjacent side of the right angled triangle. Tan = Opp/Adj

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangents are pretty much everywhere. A good example is maybe a slide at the playground. You’d need the tangent to figure out the angle of the slide and how it is.

The radius from the center of a circle to the point of tangency point shows that it would be perpendicular to the tangent line considering that anything with a radius is circular and the tangent line is… a line, making it impossible to be parallel.
