A triangle is the best because it is sturdy. There is no "wiggle room" for the triangle to transform into another shape.

Line ab contains the points a(-2,3) and b(4,5). Line ab has a slope that is

gayaneshka [121]

Given two points $A = (A_x, A_y),\ B = (B_x,B_y)$ , the slope of the line passing through the two points is

$m = \dfrac{A_y-B_y}{A_x-B_x}$

So, in your case, you have

$m = \dfrac{3-5}{-2-4} = \dfrac{-2}{-6} = \dfrac{1}{3}$

In March, there will be two conferences: one for math and one for history. So far, 7 people have signed up for the math conferen

otez555 [7]

Answer:

After 4 days, the number of people attending both conferences be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Maths conference:

Number of people already signed = 7

Number of people who sign up each day = 2

Thus, the number of people who will sign up for maths conference in x days will be given by the linear function:

$f(x) = 7+2x$

History conference:

Number of people already signed =11

Number of people who sign up each day = 1

Thus, the number of people who will sign up for maths conference in x days will be given by the linear function:

$g(x) =11+x$

Both conference will have same number of people when

$f(x) = g(x)\\\Rightarrow 7 + 2x = 11+x\\\Rightarrow x = 4$

Thus, after 4 days, the number of people attending both conferences be the same.

A convex hexagon has exterior angles of 39°, 47°, 42°, 59°, and 64°. What is the measure of an exterior angle at the

meriva

Answer: $109^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angles of a polygon add to 360 degrees, so the sixth angle measures $360-39-47-42-59-64=\boxed{109^{\circ}}$

3. Siti and Mary shared $35 in the ratio 4:3.<br> How much money did Siti receive?

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will change the ratio so that we are finding how much money Siti receives to the total amount of money.

$4:3 \rightarrow 4:(3+4)=4:7$

Now we can solve for how much money Siti receives using a proportion.

$\frac{4}{7} = \frac{\mbox{money Siti receives}}{35}$

We can see that the denominator increases 5 times, so the numerator must increase 5 times too. This means Siti receives $20.
