Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope you first need to pick to points where the line crosses a corner.

Slope= $\frac{Rise}{Run}$

I'm using the points (0,-2) and (-1,1). You can either count up and over for the slope or use the slope equation

$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

y2=second y point

y1=first y point

x2=second x point

x1=first x point

$\frac{1-(-2)}{-1-0}$ Now you just solve

$\frac{3}{-1}$ or -3

katrin [286]

Answer:

Inverse functions Inverse Functions If f is a one-to-one function with domain A and range B, we can de ne an inverse function f 1 (with domain B ) by the rule f 1(y) = x if and only if f(x) = y: This is a sound de nition of a function, precisely because each value of y in the domain of f 1 has exactly one x in A associated to it by the rule y = f(x).

The following set of coordinates most specifically represents which figure? (−5, 6), (−1, 8), (3, 6), (−1, 4) (6 points) Paralle

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Rhombus

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are A(−5, 6), B(−1, 8), C(3, 6), D(−1, 4).

We use the distance formula to find the length of AB.

$|AB|=\sqrt{(-1--5)^2+(8-6)^2}$

$|AB|=\sqrt{16+4}$

$|AB|=\sqrt{20}$

The length of AD is

$|AD|=\sqrt{(-1--5)^2+(6-4)^2}$

$|AD|=\sqrt{16+4}$

$|AD|=\sqrt{20}$

The length of BC is:

$|BC|=\sqrt{(-1-3)^2+(8-6)^2}$

$|BC|=\sqrt{16+4}$

$|BC|=\sqrt{20}$

The length of CD is

$|CD|=\sqrt{(-1-3)^2+(6-4)^2}$

$|CD|=\sqrt{16+4}$

$|CD|=\sqrt{20}$

Since all sides are congruent the quadrilateral could be a rhombus or a square.

Slope of AB $=\frac{8-6}{-1--5}=\frac{1}{2}$

Slope of BC $=\frac{8-6}{-1-3}=-\frac{1}{2}$

Since the slopes of the adjacent sides are not negative reciprocals of each other, the quadrilateral cannot be a square. It is a rhombus

Deffense [45]

Answer:

$K=-2J+28$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{k2-k1}{j2-j1}$

we have the points

(2,24) and (6,16)

substitute in the formula

$m=\frac{16-24}{6-2}$

$m=\frac{-8}{4}$

$m-2$

step 2

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$K=mJ+b$

we have

$m=-2$

$b=28$ ----> the k-intercept is the point (0,28) see the graph

substitute

$K=-2J+28$

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The coach can choose a lineup of 11 players in 6,047,981,701,347 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the varsity soccer team has 20 players, and three of the players are trained to be goalies while the remaining 17 can play any position, and only 11 players can be on the field at once, and the coach wants to make sure there is exactly one goalie on the field, to determine how many ways can the coach choose a lineup of 11 players if exactly 1 player must be a goalie the following calculation has to be made:

3 x 17 ^ 10 = X

3 x 2,015,993,900,449 = X

6,047,981,701,347 = X

Therefore, the coach can choose a lineup of 11 players in 6,047,981,701,347 different ways.
