Hey!

The formula for finding slope is: $\frac {y_2-y_1} {x_2-x_1}$ or $\frac{difference\ in\ y}{difference\ in\ x }$

y₂ = 9

y₁ = 6

9 - 6 = 3

x₂ = -3

x₁ = -9

(-9) - (-3) = 6

<em>That gives you: 3/6 = -1/2</em>

$\framebox{Slope = $\dfrac{1}{2}$}}$

Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2 - x1)

Slope = (9 - 6)/(-3- (-9)) = 3/6 = 1/2

Answer: 1/2

Every round in a competition costs 30 diamonds and you get 10 shards. How many diamonds will it cost you to reach 1,024 shards?

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

3,090 diamonds

Step-by-step explanation:

To get 10 shards, you need to spend 30 diamonds.

First thing we need to find, how many rounds you need to play to get 1,024 shards if in each round you win 10 shards?

1,024/10 = 102,4

But you can not play 102.4 rounds, you only can play whole numbers, so we need to round it to the next whole number (not the previous one, because in that case, we would get less than 1,024 shards)

Then you need to play 103 rounds.

And each round costs 30 diamonds, then the total number of diamonds that you need is:

103*30 diamonds = 3,090 diamonds

15 POINTS!!!!!!! What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form? Line on a coordinate plane. Line runs through points

suter [353]

Answer:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x+4$ is the equation of line in slope intercept form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line runs through points begin ordered pair negative 3 comma 0 end ordered pair and begin ordered pair 0 comma 4.

First ordered pair: (-3,0)

Second ordered pair: (0,4)

We have two points and need to find equation of line in slope intercept form

$\text{Slope (m)}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\text{Slope (m)}=\dfrac{4-0}{0-(-3)}=\dfrac{4}{3}$

y-intercept, when x=0 , (0,4)

Equation of line in slope intercept form:

y=mx+b

where, $m=\frac{4}{3}$ and b=4

Required equation:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x+4$

Thus, $y=\frac{4}{3}x+4$ is the equation of line in slope intercept form.

If a car with an average speed of 40 miles per hour drives for 45 minutes how far will it have gone

REY [17]

Answer: $30\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed of the car is 40 miles per hour:

$V=40\ \frac{mi}{h}$

The car drives for 45 minutes:

$t=45\ min$

Since 1 hours has 60 minutes, we can convert the time from minutes to hours:

$(45\ min)(\frac{1\ h}{60\ min})=0.75\ h$

Knowing these values, we can use the following formula for calculate the distace "d":

$d=V*t$

Therefore, substituting values into the formula, we get:

$d=(40\ \frac{mi}{h})(0.75\ h)\\\\d=30\ mi$
