Answer:

A. -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is rise over run, or y2-y1 / x2-x1.

$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} = \frac{-4-8}{2--1} =\frac{-12}{3} = -4$

The slope is A. -4.

Let's see--does that make sense? A slope of four would be pretty steep, and that matches the graph. It also should be negative because the line goes down and to the right, not up and to the right, so -4 makes sense!

Does anyone know what the vertex is?

Answer:

A vertex (or node) of a graph is one of the objects that are connected together. The connections between the vertices are called edges or links. A graph with 10 vertices (or nodes) and 11 edges (links). For more information about graph vertices, see the network introduction.

Triangles PQR and RST are similar right triangles. Which proportion can be used to show that the slope of LaTeX: \overline{P

alukav5142 [94]

Question:

Triangles PQR and RST are similar right triangles. Which proportion can be used to show that the slope of PR is equal to the slope of RT?

Answer:

$\frac{3 - 7}{-4 - (-7)} = \frac{-5 - 3}{2 - (-4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for complete question

From the attachment, we have that:

$P = (-7,7)$

$Q = (-7,3)$

$R = (-4,3)$

$S = (-4,5)$

$T = (2,-5)$

First, we need to calculate the slope (m) of PQR

Here, we consider P and R

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

Where

$P(x_1,y_1) = (-7,7)$

$R(x_2,y_2) = (-4,3)$

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

$m = \frac{3 - 7}{-4 - (-7)}$ --------- (1)

Next, we calculate the slope (m) of RST

Here, we consider R and T

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

Where

$R(x_1,y_1) = (-4,3)$

$T (x_2,y_2)= (2,-5)$

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

$m = \frac{-5 - 3}{2 - (-4)}$ ---------- (2)

Next, we equate (1) and (2)

$\frac{3 - 7}{-4 - (-7)} = \frac{-5 - 3}{2 - (-4)}$

From the list of given options (see attachment), option A answers the question

What is the range of the function y = |x |? x ≥ 0 y ≥ 0 all real numbers

Ivahew [28]

The range is the set of values for y. Since y=|x|, y is always positive and increases without bound as x approaches +oo. Thus the range is:

y≥0 which can also be expressed as y=[0, +oo)
