Answer: The slope is $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope can be calculated with the following formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Then, knowing that the line passes through the points (2,1) and (-1,-1), we can substitute the coordinates into the formula.

In this case:

$y_2=-1\\y_1=1\\x_2=-1\\x_1=2$

Therefore, the slope of the line that passes through the points (2,1) and (-1,-1) is:

$m=\frac{-1-1}{-1-2}\\\\m=\frac{-2}{-3}\\\\m=\frac{2}{3}$

Answer:

(x, y) = (-5, 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

You have done the first two steps.

7x +2(3 -3x) = 1 . . . . . equation with y substituted

7x +6 -6x = 1 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

x = -5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 6 from both sides, collect terms

y = 3 -3(-5) . . . . . . . . use the substitution equation to find y

y = 18

The solution is (x, y) = (-5, 18).

Where v is the final velocity (in m/s), u is the initial velocity (in m/s), a is the acceleration (in m/s²) and s is the distanc

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The final velocity v is 21.74 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\textrm{initial velocity} = u = 9\ m/s\\\textrm{acceleration} = a = 7\ m/s^{2}\\\textrm{distance} = s = 28\ m$

To find:

$\textrm{final velocity} = v = ?$

Solution:

As we know the third equation of motion is represented as

$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2\times a\times s\\$

Substituting the values u, a and s in the above equation we get

$v^{2} = 9^{2} + 2\times 7\times 28\\ =81 + 392\\=473\\$

$v =\±\sqrt{473} \\v =\sqrt{473} \ \textrm{as acceleration is positive v is also positive}\\v = 21.74\ m/s$

Answer:

okay let's start

Step-by-step explanation:

$use \: sine \: rule \\ \frac{x}{ \sin(31) } = \frac{42}{ \sin(59) } \: \: taking \: angle \: at \: c \: as \: 90 \\ x = \frac{ 42 \sin(31)}{ \sin(59)} \\ x = 25.236146$
