Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(x_1, \:y_1) =(-2,\: -5) \:\: \&\:\: (x_2, \:y_2) =(-3,\: 6)\\\\

Slope of line in two point form is given as:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\\\=\frac{6-(-5)}{-3-(-2)}\\\\=\frac{6+5}{-3+2}\\\\=\frac{11}{-1}\\\\\therefore m= -11

Thus slope of given line is - 11.

Answer:

W = 12

L = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

L = L

W = 1/2 L + 4

Perimeter = 56

Formula

2L + 2W = Perimeter

Solution

Sustitute

2L + 2(1/2L + 4) = 56

2L + L + 8 = 56

3L + 8 = 56

3L + 8 - 8 = 56 - 8

3L = 48

3L/3 = 48/3

L = 16

W = 1/2 L + 4

W = 8 + 4

W = 12

Check

2L + 2W = 56

2*16 + 2*12 = 56

32 + 24 = 56

56 = 56 and it checks.

6. Ed drives from Jefferson to Holden, a distance of 250 miles. He then travels on to
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The constant speed with Ed is travelling is 60 mile per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance cover to travel from Jefferson to Holden is (D1) 250 miles

The distance cover to travel from Holden to Paxton is (D2) 50 miles

Total time taken to complete entire journey = T = 5 hours

Let The constant speed of Ed = S mph

Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

Or, Time = \frac{D1}{S}  + \frac{D2}{S}

Or, 5 hour =  \frac{250}{S}  + \frac{50}{S}

Or, 5 × S = 250 + 50

So,  5 × S = 300

∴           S = \frac{300}{5}

I.e         S = 60 mph

Hence , The constant speed with Ed is travelling is 60 mile per hour Answer

A city planner is rerouting traffic in order to work on a stretch of road. The equation of the path of the old route can be desc
earnstyle [38]

Answer: D

Explanation:

The equation of a line in the point slope form is expressed as

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where

m represents slope

x1 and y1 represents coordinates of the point that the line passes.

From the information given, the equation of the path of the old route is

y = 2x/5 - 4

Recall, the equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

By comparing both equations,

slope, m = 2/5

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Given that the new route is to be parallel to the old route and will go through point (Q, P), then

m = 2/5

x1 = Q

y1 = P

The equation of the new route be

y - P = 2/5(x - Q)
