Identify the slope of the line shown in the graph below:

1 answer:

4 0

I believe the slope of any vertical line is "undefined" because slope= rise(change in y values)/ run(change in x values).

Therefore, the slope for a horizontal line is
m= 0/(x2-x1).

However, for a vertical line the x-values are the values that are not changing. So, m= (y2-y1)/0. It is not possible to divide anything by zero. So, the slope of a vertical line is reported as m= undefined.

Any questions?

If u = <-7, 6> and v = <-4, 17>, which vector can be added to u + 3v to get the unit vector <1, 0> as the resu

ivann1987 [24]

With u = <-7, 6> and v = <-4, 17>, we have

u + 3v = <-7, 6> + 3 <-4, 17> = <-7, 6> + <-12, 51> = <-19, 57>

We want to find a vector w such that

u + 3v + w = <1, 0>

Subtract u + 3v from both sides to get

w = <1, 0> - (u + 3v) = <1, 0> - <-19, 57>

w = <20, -57>

-2 2/3 divided by 4/3

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

$Rule(s): a\frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot c + b}{c}, \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}, \frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}}=\frac{a\cdot \:d}{b\cdot \:c} \\2\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\cdot 3+2}{3}\\=\frac{8}{3}\\=\frac{-\frac{8}{3}}{\frac{4}{3}}\\=-\frac{\frac{8}{3}}{\frac{4}{3}}\\=\frac{-8\cdot \:3}{3\cdot \:4}\\= \frac{-24}{12}\\= -2$
