Rate of change of line that passes through the given points is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of vertical and horiontal changes is called the rate of change of a line. It is called slope which is denoted by m.

The formula for slope when (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the points on line is given by:

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\$

Given

(x1,y1) = (-6,-6)

(x2,y2) = (-2,-2)

Putting the values in the formula

$m = \frac{-2-(-6)}{-2-(-6)}\\=\frac{-2+6}{-2+6}\\=\frac{4}{4}\\= 1$

Rate of change of line that passes through the given points is 1

Find the area of a square if its sides measure 2 2/3m

olga55 [171]

Answer:

$7\dfrac{1}{9}\ m^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length of the square side is a units, then the area of the square is

$A=a^2\ un^2.$

In your case, the side length is

$a=2\dfrac{2}{3}\ m,$

then the area is

$A=2\dfrac{2}{3}\cdot 2\dfrac{2}{3}\\ \\ \\A=\dfrac{2\cdot 3+2}{3}\cdot \dfrac{2\cdot 3+2}{3}\\ \\ \\A=\dfrac{8}{3}\cdot \dfrac{8}{3}\\ \\ \\A=\dfrac{64}{9}\\ \\ \\A=7\dfrac{1}{9}\ m^2$

Someone please help me to find the answer to this geography problem please explain

Kisachek [45]

First, we must know what the two variables in the equation y=mx+b really means.

The M represents slope while the B represents the Y-intercept.

With that out of the way, take a look at your top equation, y = 3/2x + ?. If you noticed the question mark is in the spot of the B (Y-intercept), we can simply find this by finding where on the graph does the line intercept the Y-axis.

Triangle B shows the Y-intercept to be -7, this means that the hypotenuse intercepts the Y-axis at (0 , -7).

If we were to find the (what I like to call) the interception point of triangle A's hypotenuse and the Y-axis, we find our missing variable.

Just looking at the graph, we can count and visually determine that the Y-intercept of the hypotenuse is (0 , 1).

Therefore, we can say: The equation of A's hypotenuse is:
y = 3/2x + 1

Hope I could help you out!
