During the trip, the Morales family drove on several different highways. Gabriela and Luis noticed that sometimes the mile marke

rs were increasing, and other times the mile markers were decreasing.
On one highway, Gabriela noticed that they passed mile marker 123 at 1:00. She then saw that they reached mile marker 277at 3:00. Since Mr. Morales was driving at a constant speed, their mile-marker location over time can be represented by a line where the time in hours is the independent variable and the mile marker is the dependent variable. The points (1,123) and (3,277) are two points on this line.

What is the value of the slope of this line?

Enter your answer as the correct value, like this: 42

If your answer is a fraction, use the / symbol. For example, if your answer is 314, enter your answer like this: 3/14

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The slope of the line is 77

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

We know the speed is constant and that the mile-marker location over time can be represented by a line. This means that the equation is linear.

<u>The slope can, therefore, be calculated as follows:</u>

slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

where (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) are two points on the line

We are given that the two points (1, 123) and (3, 277) are two points in the line

<u>Substitute with them in the above equation to get the slope as follows:</u>

slope = \frac{277-123}{3-2}=77

Hope this helps :)

I’m a bit confused on how to solve this problem, and could use some help!
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Okay to start with we know this side isn't congruent to our side with 55 degrees looking at this side we can see that x is not 95 degrees because it is an acute angle so A is crossed out. Next this side isn't congruent like I said so B is crossed out. C is possible but the angle wouldn't be as wide as it is if we had 59 degrees so C is incorrect. Leaving us with D 70 degrees hope this helps and sorry if I got it wrong!

If side AB is parallel to side DC, how are side A'B' and side D'C' related? Explain.
anastassius [24]
Side A’B’ and D’C’ are related because they are both parallel which I think means that they would be the same length

rosa is saving money for a trip. she has already saved $250 and plans to save $40 per week. this situation can be represented by
malfutka [58]

Rosa has saved $490 in 6 weeks.

To find the answer to this, simply plug the number of weeks in for the value of x and solve.

f(x) = 250 + 40x

f(6) = 250 + 40(6)

f(6) = 250 + 240

f(6) = 490

Find the exact value of csc ø, if cos ø= 1/9; 180° less ø less than 270°
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: the first option  - 9/ \sqrt{80}

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

          cosФ = adjacent side / hypotenuse

          -1/9 = adjacent side / hypotenuse

          adjacent side = -1    hypotenuse = 9

          c² = a² + b²

          b² = c² - a²

           b² = 81 - 1

           b = \sqrt{80} \\    b = opposite side

But b is negative because we are in the third quadrant.

          b = -\sqrt{80}

Finally   csc Ф = hypotenuse / opposite side

             csc Ф = - 9 / \sqrt{80}
