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

-8(8v + 1) - 2 = -394

Bess [88]

Answer:

v = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for v:

-8 (8 v + 1) - 2 = -394

-8 (8 v + 1) = -64 v - 8:

-64 v - 8 - 2 = -394

Grouping like terms, -64 v - 8 - 2 = -64 v + (-8 - 2):

-64 v + (-8 - 2) = -394

-8 - 2 = -10:

-10 - 64 v = -394

Add 10 to both sides:

(10 - 10) - 64 v = 10 - 394

10 - 10 = 0:

-64 v = 10 - 394

10 - 394 = -384:

-64 v = -384

Divide both sides of -64 v = -384 by -64:

(-64 v)/(-64) = (-384)/(-64)

(-64)/(-64) = 1:

v = (-384)/(-64)

The gcd of -384 and -64 is -64, so (-384)/(-64) = (-64×6)/(-64×1) = (-64)/(-64)×6 = 6:

Answer: v = 6

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

A. 3.66 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using trigonometry, we know that ...

BC = DC·tan(30°)

AC = DC·tan(45°)

AB = AC -BC = DC(tan(45°) -tan(30°))

AB = 5√3·(1 -√3/3) = 5(√3 -1)

AB ≈ 3.66 . . . feet
