Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the equation of a line in point slope form is expressed as

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where

m represents the slope. The formula for determining slope is

Slope = (y2 - y1) /(x2 -;x1)

Where

y2 represents final value of y = 2

y1 represents initial value of y = 12

x2 represents final value of x = 3

x1 represents initial value of x = 1

Therefore,

Slope = (2 - 12)/(3 - 1) = - 10/2 = -5

Therefore, the point slope form would be

y - 12 = - 5(x - 1)

The equation for the slope-intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where c = intercept

To determine c, we would substitute m = - 5, x = 1 and y = 12 into y = mx + c. It becomes

12 = - 5 × 1 + c = - 5 + c

c = 12 + 5 = 17

The equation becomes

y = - 5x + 17

Answer:

The answer to your question is  a)      y - 2 = -5(x - 3)  

                                                      b)     y = -5x + 17  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (1, 12)

B (3, 2)

Process

1.- Find the slope

Formula

m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Substitution

m = \frac{2 - 12}{3 - 1} = \frac{-10}{2} = - 5

2.- Find the equation in point slope form

Equation

                             y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitution and equation

                           y - 2 = -5(x - 3)

3.- Find the slope-intercept form

Expand the point slope form

                           y - 2 = -5x + 15

Simplify

                           y = -5x + 15 + 2

Equation

                          y = -5x + 17

-1/4b + 1/2 = 5/6<br>Find b​
QveST [7]

Answer:

b = -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract the 1/2 over

-1/4b+1/2=5/6

5/6-1/2

To get a common denominator of 6, multipy 1/2 by 3

5/6-1/2(3)

5/6-3/6=2/6

-1/4b=2/6

Next, multiply by the reciprocal of -1/4, or -4

(-4)-1/4b=2/6(-4)

b=-4/3

Question 1 of 10
trapecia [35]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 queens out of 52 cards in a deck. Therefore, if each card has the same probability of getting chosen, you have a 4/52 = 0.077 chance of drawing a queen because there are (4 favorable outcomes/queens) / (52 total outcomes)

59 and/or 60. Determine if the triangles are similar. If they are similar, find the scale factor from ABC to JKL.
navik [9.2K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  59) not similar

  60)

Step-by-step explanation:

59) The ratios of the side lengths shown cannot be reduced. They are different, so the triangles are not similar.

  7:8:12 ≠ 6:7:11

__

60) The side length ratios both reduce to 8:7:10, so the triangles are similar.

  ∆ABC ~ ∆JKL

The scale factor is LJ/CA = 25/20 = 5/4. (Multiplying ABC by 5/4 will give JKL.)
