Find the slope of the line that contains the points (1,-1) and (-2,8)

1 answer:

4 0

The formula for slope is (y-y1)/(x-x1).
1 = x
-1 = y
-2 = x2
8 = y2

You would plug those into the formula: (-1-(-2))/(-1-8) and that would equal to: 1/(-9).

Solve 7 ( x + 1 ) + 2 = 5x + 15

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x + 1) + 2 = 5x + 15

~Simplify left side

7x + 7 + 2 = 5x + 15

~Combine like terms

7x + 9 = 5x + 15

~Subtract 9 to both sides

7x = 5x + 6

~Subtract 5x to both sides

2x = 6

~Divide 2 to both sides

x = 3

Best of Luck!

Help!! BRAINLIEST TOO!

Answer:

36.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the given data

Required

Which length is closest to 4.2lb

The given data is a linear dataset.

So, we start by calculating the slope (m)

$m =\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Pick any two corresponding points from the table

So, we have:

$(x_1,y_1) = (8,1.21)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (12,1.63)$

So:

$m =\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m =\frac{1.63 - 1.21}{12 - 8}$

$m =\frac{0.42}{4}$

$m =0.105$

The linear equation is then calculated using:

$y = m(x - x_1) + y_1$

This gives:

$y = 0.105 * (x - 8) + 1.21$

Open bracket

$y = 0.105x - 0.84 + 1.21$

$y = 0.105x + 0.37$

To get the length closest to 4.2lb,

we set $y = 4.2$

Then solve for x

So, we have:

$y = 0.105x + 0.37$

$4.2 = 0.105x + 0.37$

Collect like terms

$0.105x= 4.2 - 0.37$

$0.105x= 3.83$

Solve for x

$x= 3.83/0.105$

$x\approx 36.5$

Write two equations. the first equation should express the area of the square (a as a function of the length (l of a side. the s

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

a = l²

v = s³

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width. When that rectangle is a square, the length and width are the same. Here, they are given as "l". Then the area of the square is ...

a = l·l = l²

The volume of a cuboid is the product of its height and the area of its base. A cube of edge length s has a square base of side length s and a height of s. Then its volume will be ...

v = s·(s²) = s³

The two equations you want are ...

• a = l²

• v = s³
