What is the slope of the line that passes through (8,4) and (6,7)?

1 answer:

4 0

$slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\ 
(x_1,y_1)=(8,4)\\ 
(x_2,y_2)=(6,7)\\\\
 slope=\frac{7-4}{6-8}=\frac{3}{-2}=-\frac{3}{2}\\\\
Slope\ is\ equal\ to\ -\frac{3}{2}.

Which expression represents the greatest common factor (GCF) of 70 and 112? A. 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 B. 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 C. 2 x 7 D. 2 x 2

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{C. \ \ GCF = 2 * 7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Firstly, we'll do prime factorization of these numbers.</u>

70 = 2 × 5 × 7

112 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 7

<u>So, The Greatest Common Factor can be written as:</u>

GCF = 2 × 7 <u>[Since Only one 2 and one 7 is common]</u>

<u></u>

Hope this helped!

Please find the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM with vertices J(6, 10), K(10, 6), L(8, 2), and M(2, 2). Thank y

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM = $\mathbf{ = 3 \sqrt{5} }$ i.e 6.708 units on the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached below; we can see a graphical representation showing the mid-segment of the trapezoid JKLM. The mid-segment is located at the line parallel to the sides of the trapezoid. However; these mid-segments are X and Y found on the line JK and LM respectively from the graph.

Using the expression for midpoints between two points to determine the exact length of the mid-segment ; we have:

$\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} }$
