Which pair of points have a slope of -3/5?

Allushta [10]

Answer:

No of these answers has a slope of $\frac{-3}{5}$ . My guess is B becasue its close to $\frac{-3}{5}$ unless the 5 is supposed to be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use the slope formula $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

( $x_{1}$ , $y_{1}$ ), ( $x_{2}$ , $y_{2}$ )

(4, 0), (-2, 10) $\frac{10 - 0 }{-2 - 4 }= \frac{10}{6}$ you have to simplfy, the answer will be $\frac{5}{3}$

(10, -2), (0, 4) $\frac{4 - -2 }{0- 10 }= \frac{6}{-10}$ you have to simplfy, the answer will be $\frac{3}{-5}$

(4, 2), (10, 4) $\frac{4 - 2 }{10 - 4 }= \frac{2}{6}$ you have to simplfy, the answer will be $\frac{1}{3}$

(-4, -10),(0, -2) $\frac{{-2- -10} }{0 - -4 }= \frac{8}{4}$ you have to simplfy, the answer will be $\frac{2}{1} =2$

Find the area of the figure. round your answer to the nearest hundredth

liraira [26]

Answer: 84.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangle is L*W=B*H

14*5=70

To find the area of the half circle we must use the formula pi r^2/2

r=radius

and the radius is 6 because we add 4 and 4 and need to get to 14

because the line below it is 14 and it is a rectangle so the lengths are the same.

Diameter=6

So radius =3

pi (3)^2/2=

9/2 pi + 70=

Patrick has just finished building a pen for his new dog. The pen is 3 feet wider than it is long. He also built a doghouse to p

zalisa [80]

General Idea:

(i) Assign variable for the unknown that we need to find

(ii) Sketch a diagram to help us visualize the problem

(iii) Write the mathematical equation representing the description given.

(iv) Solve the equation by substitution method. Solving means finding the values of the variables which will make both the equation TRUE

Applying the concept:

Given: x represents the length of the pen and y represents the area of the doghouse

Statement 1: "The pen is 3 feet wider than it is long"

$Length \; of\; the \; pen = x\\ Width \; of\; the\; pen=x+3$

------

Statement 2: "He also built a doghouse to put in the pen which has a perimeter that is equal to the area of its base"

$Area \; of\; the\; Dog \; house=y\\ Perimeter \; of\; Dog\; house=y$

------

Statement 3: "After putting the doghouse in the pen, he calculates that the dog will have 178 square feet of space to run around inside the pen."

$Area \; of \; the\; Pen - Area \;of \;the\;Dog \;House=\;Space\;inside\;Pen\\ \\ x \cdot (x+3)-y=178\\ Distributing \;x\;in\;the\;left\;side\;of\;the\;equation\\ \\ x^2+3x-y=178\Rightarrow\; 1^{st}\; Equation\\$

------

Statement 4: "The perimeter of the pen is 3 times greater than the perimeter of the doghouse."

$Perimeter\; of\; the\; Pen=3\; \cdot \; Perimeter\; of\; the\; Dog\; House\\ \\ 2(x \; + \; x+3)=3 \cdot y\\ Combine\; like\; terms\; inside\; the\; parenthesis\\ \\ 2(2x+3)=3y\\ Distribute\; 2\; in\; the\; left\; side\; of\; the\; equation\\ \\ 4x+6=3y\\ Subtract \; 6\; and \; 3y\; on\; both\; sides\; of\; the\; equation\\ \\ 4x+6-3y-6=3y-3y-6\\ Combine\; like\; terms\\ \\ 4x-3y=-6 \Rightarrow \; \; 2^{nd}\; Equation\\$

Conclusion:

The systems of equations that can be used to determine the length and width of the pen and the area of the doghouse is given in Option B.

$178=x^2+3x-y\\ \\ -6=4x-3y$
