Mathematics

Deffense [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Denote that line: y = ax + b

Line passes (-2, 7) and (2,-5):

=> -2a + b =7

=>  2a + b = -5

Add both side of above equations:

=> 2b = 2

=> b = 1

=> a = (-5 - 1)/2 = -3

=> Slope a = -3

Hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP!!! <br><br> Which equation represents this ellipse?
Alona [7]

Answer:

y²/25+x²/4=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for an ellipse is either categorized as

x²/c² + y²/d² = 1 . In such an equation, the vertices on the x axis are categorized by (±c,0) and the vertices on the y axis are (0, ±d)

In the ellipse shown, the vertices/endpoints on the x axis are (-2,0) and (2,0). This means that c is equal to 2. Similarly, on the y axis, the endpoints are (5,0) and (-5,0), so d=5.

Our equation is therefore x²/2²+y²/5²=1 = x²/4+y²/25=1

Our answer is therefore the fourth option, or

y²/25+x²/4=1

Convert a recipe that serves 6 and calls for 3/4 cups of sugar to one that serves 20.
djyliett [7]

Answer:

5/2cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If a recipe serves 6 and calls for 3/4cups, arecipe that serves 20, will call for (20×3/4)/6 cups. Mathematically;

6recipe = 3/4cups

20recipe = x

Cross multiplying we have;

6x = 20×3/4

6x = 15

x = 15/6

x = 5/2

This means a recipe that serves 20 will call for 5/2cups
