The points (-1,2) and (4,y) have a slope of -4/5. what is the y-coordinate of the point (4,y)

Mathematics

Nastasia [14]3 years ago

Answer:

y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1,2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, y)

m = \frac{y-2}{4+1}, hence

\frac{y-2}{5} = - \frac{4}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5(y - 2) = - 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y - 2 = - 4 ( add 2 to both sides )

y = - 2

coordinates of point are (4, - 2)

12 x+ 12=
12 x= -12
x= -1
So first you take what is outside the "( )" and you multiply it with what's in the "( )" so that gave us 12 because 2*6= 12.

12 divided by 8/9 = ?
Oduvanchick [21]
The answer would be 13 1/2 because you turn the 12 into a fraction then change the division sign into a multiplication sign and find the reciprocal of 8/9 which is 9/8 you could now divide 12/1 divided by 9/8 you could cross simply then dove to get 27/2 and in the end you get 13 1/2 if you turn the improper fraction into a mixed number.

Which of the following correctly uses absolute value to show the distance between −50 and 12?
Softa [21]

Answer:

 62 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of a number A is the positive distance between 0 and the number A (you can think this distance as the distance measured with a ruler from 0 to the number). For example:

|-2|=2 ,  |25|=25,  |-3|=3, |-25.3|=25.3

Note that the absolte value is always positive.

The distance between two numbers P,Q in the real line is the absolute value of the difference between the two points:

Hence, the distnce between P=-50 and Q=12 is equal to
