For this case we have that the slope of a line is given by:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}$

Where $(x_ {1}, y_ {1})\ and\ (x_ {2}, y_ {2})$ are two points that belong to the line.

Then, having the following points:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) = (4,3)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) = (2,7)\\m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}\\m = \frac {7-3} {2-4}\\m = \frac {4} {- 2}\\m = -2$

Thus, the slope is given by $m = -2$

Answer:

$m = -2$

Option B

Use a graph in a (-2π, 2π, π/2) by (-3, 3, 1) viewing rectangle to complete the identity.

yaroslaw [1]

First, notice that:

$2\tan (\frac{x}{2})=2\cdot(\pm\sqrt[]{\frac{1-cosx}{1+\cos x})}$

And in the denominator we have:

$1+\tan ^2(\frac{x}{2})=1+\frac{1-\cos x}{1+\cos x}=\frac{1+cosx+1-\cos x}{1+cosx}=\frac{2}{1+\cos x}$

then, we have on the original expression:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{2\tan(\frac{x}{2})}{1+\tan^2(\frac{x}{2})}=\frac{2\cdot\pm\sqrt[]{\frac{1-\cos x}{1+cosx}}}{\frac{2}{1+\cos x}}=\frac{2\cdot(\pm\sqrt[]{1-cosx})\cdot(1+\cos x)}{2\cdot(\sqrt[]{1+cosx})} \\ =(\sqrt[]{1-\cos x})\cdot(\sqrt[]{1+\cos x})=\sqrt[]{(1-\cos x)(1+\cos x)} \\ =\sqrt[]{1-\cos^2x}=\sqrt[]{\sin^2x}=\sin x \end{gathered}$

therefore, the identity equals to sinx

N+3/4=1/4 solve for n

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

N = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are adding in this, so we need to do the opposite to both sides, to get N by itself.

N + 3/4 - 3/4 = 1/4 - 3/4

N = -2/4 or, simplified, -1/2
