So, the first thing we need to know is what is what.

So, A natural number is a whole number

A whole number is an integer

and An integer is a rational number.

Now, since there is a terminating decimal (a decimal that does not go on forever) we know it is a rational number.

Since there is a decimal, it cannot be an integer, therefore

It is a rational number

Select the equation of the line parallel to the equation y = -2x - 7 that passes through the point (3, 1).

sasho [114]

Y = -2x - 7
slope = -2 (parallel shares the same slope, -2)

Option A:
y = -2x + 7
slope = -2

At (3, 1)
y = -2(3) + 7 = 1

What is the length of segment CD question mark

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

CD = two square root of 10 end square root

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of a segment, use the distance formula. Substitute the order pairs for the endpoints of the segment. CD has the end points (-7, -4) and (-1, -2).

$d = \sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2 + (x_2-x_1)^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{(-4--2)^2 + (-7--1)^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{-2^2 + -6^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{4 + 36}\\\\d=\sqrt {40} = 2\sqrt{10}$
