Answer:

Option D. Slope is 1 if the line is vertical

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

Part A) Slope is a measure of the steepness of the line

The statement is true

Because, the steepness of a line is measured by the absolute value of the slope.

Part B) Slope is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change

The statement is true

Because the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change

Part C) Slope is zero if the line is horizontal

The statement is true

Because If the line is horizontal, the y-coordinate of two points is the same

therefore

The vertical change is equal to zero

Part D) Slope is 1 if the line is vertical

The statement is Not true

Because, if the line is vertical the slope is undefined

What is the equation of this line in standard form? 8x−7y=−25 8x−9y=23 8x−9y=−23 9x−8y=23 Number graph ranging from negative fiv

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The equation of line is:

$8x-9y=-23$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a graph is a that passes through two points:

$(-4,-1)$ and $(\dfrac{1}{2},3)$

We know that the equation of line passing through two points:

$(a,b)$ and $(c,d)$ is given by:

$y-b=\dfrac{d-b}{b-a}\times (x-a)$

Here we have:

$(a,b)=(-4,-1)$ and $(c,d)=(\dfrac{1}{2},3)$

Hence, the equation of line is:

$y-(-1)=\dfrac{3-(-1)}{\dfrac{1}{2}-(-4)}\times (x-(-4))\\\\y+1=\dfrac{3+1}{\dfrac{1}{2}+4}\times (x+4)\\\\y+1=\dfrac{4}{\dfrac{9}{2}}\times (x+4)\\\\y+1=\dfrac{4\times 2}{9}\times (x+4)\\\\y+1=\dfrac{8}{9}\times (x+4)\\\\9\times (y+1)=8\times (x+4)\\\\9y+9=8x+8\times 4\\\\9y+9=8x+32\\\\8x-9y=9-32\\\\8x-9y=-23$

Hence the equation of line is:

$8x-9y=-23$

At noon, the minute and the hour hands of a clock overlap. In how long will they again overlap?

kati45 [8]

Answer:

Okay. At noon, the hour and minute hand overlap. First, let’s calculate the speed of the hands.

The minute hand rotates once around the clock every hour. It goes 360 degrees in 60 minutes, so it rotates 360/60 or 6 degrees per minute. The hour hand goes once around the clock every 12 hours. Because there are 60 minutes in an hour, it goes 360 degrees 12*60 or 720 minutes. This means it travels at a speed of 360/720 or 0.5 degrees per minute.

Once the clock starts, the minute hand goes ahead and rotates ahead of the hour hand. At 1:00, the minute hand is at 12, and the hour hand is ahead at 1. This is where we will start our calculations.

Now, we have a variable, m, which is the minutes that have passed since the clock started. So, our minute hand speed is 6m, and our hour hand speed is 0.5m. However, because the hour hand is at one, it is at 30 degrees. (360/12 * 1.) This means our equation is 6m = 0.5m+30.

Now, we calculate.

6m = 0.5m+30

5.5m = 30

m = 30/5.5

m = 5.45

So at 5.45 minutes, the minute hand is at the hour hand. However, because one hour has passed since we started, we have to add on one hour.

So, our final total is 1 hour 5 minutes and 27 seconds.
