What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-4,8) and (2,-1)

Mathematics
1 answer:
DiKsa [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

y - 8 = (3/2)(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move from (-4, 8) to (2, -1), x increases by 6 (this is the run) and y decreases by 9 (this is the "rise").  Thus, the slope is

m = rise / run = 9/6, or 3/2.

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line, we get:

y - 8 = (3/2)(x + 4)

Find all numbers such that three times the number is greater than eight less than the number.
klio [65]

Answer:

ALL SUCH NUMBERS WHICH ARE GREATER THAN -4 satisfy the given condition.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, assume such number = m

Now, given :

3 times the number = 3 x ( m) = 3 m

8 less than the given number =  m - 8

Now, according to the question:

3 times the number  > 8 less than the given number

or, 3 m > m - 8

or, 3m  - m > m - 8 + m

or, 2  m > - 8

or, m > - 4

Hence, all SUCH NUMBERS WHICH ARE GREATER THAN -4 satisfy the given condition.

A = (pi) * r*2
(pi) = 3.14
r = d/2.....r = 17/2 or 8.5

A = 3.14 * 8.5^2
A = 3.14 * 72.25
A = 226.86 rounds to 226.9 m^2 <==
