A line has a slope of -1 and includes the points 0,-1 t,-8 what is the value of t

1 answer:

5 0

So we will begin with the equation for any slope
it is
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
and we will put each given point in its place
(-8-(-1)) / (t -(0))
then sum up the nominator
-1 = (-7) / t -0
and to find t we have to divide -7 over -1 and add -0 which will give us 7
So the value of t is 7

What is the distance between the point (−10, −2)(−10, −2) and the point (−4, −2)(−4, −2) ?

Gnoma [55]

In this case: x 1 = - 10, y 1 = - 2;
x 2 = - 4 , y 2 = - 2
The distance between the points :
$d = \sqrt{(x 2 - x 1 ) ^{2} + ( y 2 - y 1 ) ^{2} } = \\ =\sqrt{(-4+10) ^{2} +(-2+2) ^{2} } = \\ = \sqrt{6 ^{2}+0 ^{2} } = \sqrt{36}= 6$
Answer: d = 6

If there is 100 students how much would 40% be

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer: 40 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you mmust apply the steps shown below:

1. You know that there is a total of 100 students, then you can say that the 100% is 100 students.

2. Then, to calculate how much would 40% be, you must multiply 100 students by 40% which you rewrite as a decimal by dividing it by 100, as following:

40%/100=0.4

Then 40% of the students would be

100 studens*0.4=40 students
