Okay you use this equation for point-slope form. m=y2-y1 / x2-x1
m is what most have agreed to be the variable for slope so that’s what I’ll use.
So with the two points you have you have 2 x’s and 2 y’s. All you have to do is just assign (give) a 1 or a 2 to each point, you’re basically labeling them to make it easier on you later. You NEED to make sure that for one point you put down both the x and the y for the same number. You can’t have x1 and y2 for the same point.

Now that we got that out of the way, let’s label them. (-5,4) —> (x1,y1)
(1,6) —> (x2,y2).

Now go through with the equation 6-4 = 2

1-(-5) which is really just 1+5=6

2/6 which simplified to 1/3

So m=1/3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by change in the ordinate divided by change in the abscissa.= Y2-Y1/X2-X1

=6-4/1+5= 2/6= 1/3

Which represents a quadratic function ?

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

$\boxed{\boxed{B.\ f(x)=\dfrac{3}{4}x^2+2x-5}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic function-

It is a function that can be represented by an equation of the form $f = ax^2 + bx + c$ , where $a\neq 0$

In a quadratic function, the greatest power of the variable is 2.

As in the first option the highest power is 3, so it is not a quadratic function.

Even though the power of x is 2 in the third option, but as it is in the denominator, so the overall power of x becomes -2. Hence it is not a quadratic function.

As the coefficient of $x^2$ is 0 in case of fourth option, so it is not a quadratic function.

Equation in option 2 satisfies all the conditions of quadratic function, hence it is the quadratic function.

What is the value of x?

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

x = 22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{BH}{DH} = \frac{HM}{HT} \\ \frac{6}{15 + 6} = \frac{9}{9 + x} \\ \frac{6}{21} = \frac{9}{9 + x} \\ 6(9 + x) = 9 \times 21 \\ 54 + 6x = 189 \\ 6x = 189 - 54 \\ 6x = 135 \\ x = \frac{135}{6} \\ x = 22.5$

I need help with number 3 and 5

shepuryov [24]

3 is no cuz obtuse angle is >90 degrees, all the angles together must equal 180 degrees, and if you try it, you get no. 5 is 25% of 45, which is $11.25.

2x+16=7+2x <br>how do you solve if the variable is the same on both sides of the equation

jeka94

First subtract the 7 from both sides and that would equal 2x+9=2x then subtract 2x and the answer is 9
