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?

3 = q/11 i need it real quick

makkiz [27]

Answer:

$q=33$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have:

$3=\frac{q}{11}$

Multiply both sides by 11:

$11(3)=(11)\frac{q}{11}$

The right side cancels:

$11(3)=q$

Multiply the left:

$33=q$

Thus, the value of q is 33.

a cup is 6.4 cm tall, not including the 0.6 cm lip. cups are stacked inside one another. select the function that represents the

Alja [10]

Answer: 20

H(c) = 6.4 + 0.6c

6.4 is the constant.

When the height of the cups is 18.4 the function is:

18.4 = 6.4 + 0.6c

Then, you add 6.4 from both sides

18.4 - 6.4 + 6.4 = 6.4 + 0.6c - 6.4 + 6.4

Simplify

18.4 = 6.4 + 0.6c

Switch sides

6.4 + 0.6c = 18.4

Multiply both sides by 10

6.4 x 10 + 0.6c x 10 = 18.4 x 10

Refine

64 + 6c = 184

Subtract 64 from both sides

64 + 6c - 64 = 184 - 64

Simplify

6c = 120

Divide both sides by 6

6c/6 = 120/6

c = 20
