Since you know that point Y and point Z are equal distance form point F, you will need to know the distance between point Y, -1, and the distance between point X, -7. So, the total distance, after subtracting -1 from -7, is -6. So, you will then subtract another -6 from -7, to get -13, which is the coordinate of point Z.
2/3 times 7 wholes is the same was 7 because 1 whole is 1.
What would you do it multiply the numerator and numerator so the would be 2x7. Then we would multiply the denominators. 3x1=1. Therefore the answer is 14/3.
Answer: m = -1
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem we're asked to find the slope of the line that contains the points (-2,5) and (6,-3).
Using our slope formula, we take the <em>second y</em> minus <em>the first y</em> which in this case is -3 - 5 over our<em> second x </em>minus <em>our first x </em>which in this case is 6 - -2.
-3 - 5 simplifies to -8 and remember that minus a negative can be thought of as plus a positive so 6 - (-2) can be thought of as 6 + (+2) which is 8.
Now we have -8/8. Notice that our slope can be simplified one step further so we have <em>m = -1</em>.
The variable that's used to represent slope is <em>m</em>.
