(-3,-5)(2,4)
slope(m) = (4 - (-5) / (2 - (-3) = (4 + 5) / (2 + 3) = 9/5

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 9/5
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
sub
y - 4 = 9/5(x - 1)....this is the correct answer

the student figured the slope wrong....it is 9/5...not -9/5

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is always determined by the names of its angles. If, for any reason, you wanted to label it by its side names(which I don't even think you can do but assuming you wanted to), you dont even have the names for all three sides here. So, it can only be d. A, X, and T are the three angle names for this triangle, so this is triangle ATX or AXT.

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

4x - 5 = x - 1 + 3x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                    4x - 5 = 4x - 1
  2. Subtract 4x on both sides:          -5 ≠ -1

Here we see that -5 does not equal -1.

∴ This equation has no solutions.

Round 299.2131 to the nearest thousands
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the place that is the thousandth place. That would be the 3 then you will look beside the 3 to see if their is a number bigger than five. If there is then you would add whatever number to make the number 10. In this case their is not so you would instead look at the three and replace all the numbers to the right of three ( don’t change three though) and make them zeros. So that will leave you with 299.2130 rounded to the nearest thousandth.
