Answer:

The answer is

<h2>-  \frac{1}{9}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1}  \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(10, 8) and (1, 9)

The slope is

m =  \frac{9 - 8}{1 - 10}  =  \frac{1}{ - 9}  \\  =  -  \frac{1}{9}

We have the final answer as

-  \frac{1}{9}  \\

Hope this helps you

Lim x tends to π÷2 , then what is the value of (tanx + cotx) ÷ ( tanx - cotx)​
KiRa [710]

(tan(<em>x</em>) + cot(<em>x</em>)) / (tan(<em>x</em>) - cot(<em>x</em>)) = (tan²(<em>x</em>) + 1) / (tan²(<em>x</em>) - 1)

… = (sin²(<em>x</em>) + cos²(<em>x</em>)) / (sin²(<em>x</em>) - cos²(<em>x</em>))

… = -1/cos(2<em>x</em>)

Then as <em>x</em> approaches <em>π</em>/2, the limit is -1/cos(2•<em>π</em>/2) = -sec(<em>π</em>) = 1.

The value of a car is $20,000. It loses 10.7% of its value every year . Find the approximate monthly decrease in value . Round y
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

$178.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of a car is $20,000

The car loses 10.7% of its value yearly

Since there are 12 months in a year then 10.7% can be represented as

10.7%/12

= 0.8916%

Therefore the approximate monthly decrease in value can be calculated as follows

= $20,000×0.8916/100

= $20,000×0.008916

= $178.3

Hence the approximate monthly decrease in value is $178.3

I have a series of 2 questions.
Margarita [4]
1)
I:y=3x-4
II:9x-3y=14


substitute y into II:
9x-3*(3x-4)=14
9x-9x+12=14
12=14

this is obviously not equal so there is no solution, the lines are parallel

2)
I:y=4x+6
II:5x-y=6

substitute y into II:
5x-(4x+6)=6
5x-4x-6=6
x=12
substiute x into II:
5*12-y=6
-y=6-60
-y=-54
y=54

the solution is (12,54)
