The answer would be 7. The brackets mean absolute value but the answer isn’t negative anyways.

In slope intercept form, write the equation for the line that passes through the point (2,3) and the point (7,13).

tatuchka [14]

First, Use the slope equation to find the slope of the line passing thru these two points:

m=rise/run

Here, the rise is 13-3, or 10, and the run is 7-2, or 5. Thus, the slope, m, is 10/5, or 2: m=2.

We want the slope-intercept form, so let's begin with its general form:

y=mx+b. Substitute the slope 2 for m: y=2x+b. Now choose either of the given points. Arbitrarily I am choosing (2,3). Then x=2 and y=3.

Substituting these values into y=2x+b: 3 = 2(2) + b, or b= 3 -4, or b = -1.

Then the equation of this line, in slope-intercept form, is y = 2x - 1.

Find an equation of the circle that has center (-4,3) and passes through (6,-4).

kumpel [21]

Answer:

$(x+4)^2+(y-3)^2=149$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$ where $(h,k)$ is the center of the circle and $r$ is the radius of the circle.

Given that $(h,k)\rightarrow(-4,3)$ and it passes $(6,-4)$ , their distance between each other must the radius of the circle, so we can use the distance formula to find the radius:
