The formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the point-slope form of the equation of a line where m is the slope of the line and (x, y) and

(x1, y1) are points of the line. Solve the equation for m, and find the slope of a line that includes the points (4, -2) and (5, 0).

Answer:

The slope of a line that includes the points (4, -2) and (5, 0) is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the point-slope form of the equation of a line where m is the slope of a line.

The line must include the points (4, -2) and (5, 0). So, being:

  • (x,y)= (4,-2)
  • (x1,y1)= (5, 0)

and replacing in the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

-2-0=m(4-5)

You solve the equation for m and get:

-2=m*(-1)

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

m=2

Ezra is filling bottles of water to hand out during a race. Each bottle of water holds 16 ounces and he has 4,005 ounces of filt
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

So just by the question, we are aware that when we divide 4,005 ounces by 16, it is not going to be a pretty number - there are going to be some left over in the form of a fraction.

First we must find out how many of these bottles can be completely filled until there is only the small fraction left that is not able to fill up a bottle. So let's divide:

\frac{4,005}{16}=250.3125

And now we know that 250 bottles will be filled completely. To find the amount of ounces left over, let's see how many ounces 250 bottles is:

250*16=4,000

There are 4,000 ounces in 250 bottles. So we need to subtract our initial amount from this known amount:

4,005-4,000=5

So there are only 5 ounces of water remaining after 250 bottles are completely filled. To put this into a fraction of the original amount, we just divide by the initial amount (4,005):

\frac{5}{4,005} =\frac{1}{801}

If the question is asking for the remainder in terms of a bottle, we just divide these 5 ounces by the 16 ounces it would take to fill this bottle:

\frac{5}{16}

Hay dos veces la cantidad de manzanas que naranjas en un puesto de frutas. Después de que se vendieron 15 naranjas, hay tres vec
Elan Coil [88]

There are 45 oranges and 90 apples in the beginning.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of orange be 'b'

Let the no. of apples be 'a'

Given that,

2b = a

3(b-15) = a

3b - 45 = a

3b - 45 = 2b

3b - 2b = 45

b = 45

2b = a

2(45) = a

a = 90

There are 45 oranges and 90 apples in the beginning.

Identify the slope and y-intercept of the line x+2y=−2.
Reil [10]

Answer:

slope: -1/2

Y-intercept: -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Get Y by itself by subtracting x on both sides

2y= -x -2

Now divide both sides by 2 to cancel the two connected to the y:

Y = -1/2x -2/2

So y= -1/2x -1

Y=mx+b so m is the slope and b represents the y-intercept
