Answer:

The slope is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

or change in y / change in x.

First, you plug in your numbers. I will use (2, 7) as (x1, y1)

(1-7)/(5-2)

Next, simplify.

(-6)/(3)

or

-2

And that's your slope!

Answer:

Can not be determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

In ΔHFS and ΔIFS,

Side HS ≅ Side HI [Given]

∠HFS ≅ ∠IFS [Given]

Side FS ≅ Side FS [Reflexive property]

But there is no property of SSA (Side-side-angles for the congruence of two triangles)

Therefore, answer is "can not be determined".

Help me find the solution set for 8x-3=2(x-1/2)
daser333 [38]
8x -3 = 2(x-1/2)
⇒ 8x -3= 2x -2*(1/2)
⇒ 8x -3 = 2x -1
⇒ 8x -2x= -1+ 3
⇒ 6x = 2
⇒ x= 2/6
⇒ x= 1/3

The final answer is x= 1/3~
