How to use the slope formula to find the slope of a line please help me!!!!!!!

Answer:

Sweetie, it's easy. Let me explain.

The slope formula is (y2 - y1) (x2 - x1) you find the slope by putting the rise over the run. For example, if the point goes up 2 and right 3 your slope would be (2,3) and let's just say your next coordinate is (4,5) you would take the y, 5, from the second coordinate and subtract it by the y from the first coordinate, 3. So you would have 2 and you do the same with the x values. So your slope would be 3/2. Hope I helped at all.

Solve each system by graphing:<br><br> 4x + 6y = -12<br> 2x + 3y = 6
Helga [31]

Answer: For the system given, there is no solution.

The slopes are the same for both equations, so the lines are parallel. With no intersection, there is no solution.

It may be easier to graph the system if you change the equations to slope intercept form  y = mx + b

That locates the y-intercept, <em><u>b</u></em> and you can use the slope, <em><u>m</u></em> to plot additional points to draw the lines.

The attachment shows the graph of this system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:  Isolate y on the left

<u>First equation:</u>

4x + 6y = -12 Subtract 4x from both sides

6y = -4x -12   Divide both sides by 6

y = -4x/6 -12/6   Simplify

y = -2x/3 - 2   The y-intercept is -2, <u>the slope is -2/3</u>

<u>Second equation:</u>

2x + 3y = 6  Subtract 2x from both sides

3y = –2x + 6 . Divide both sides by 3

y = –2x/3 + 6/3  Simplify

y = –2x/3 +2   The y-intercept is -2, <u>the slope is -2/3  </u>

At this point we see that the slopes are the same, so the lines are parallel.

A rectangular field 50 meters in width and 120 meters in length is divided into two fields by a diagonal line. What is the lengt
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

E. 300

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle split in half diagonally yields 2 right triangles.

((For this problem, you are probably supposed to use the pythagorean theorem to find the diagonal length, and then calculate perimeter (length of fence around triangular field). In other words:

(sqrt( (50m)^2 + (120m)^2 )) + 50m + 120m)

))

By definition, the hypotenuse (diagonal) is the longest side.

This means that it must be longer than 120m.

If you add the 2 sides (50m + 120m), you get 170m.

Since the third side has to be longer than 120m, the answer _must_ be over 290m (170m + 120m).

300m is the only answer that fits.
