Hurrrryyyyy plllzzz. Determine the equation of the line that passes through the given points

pashok25 [27]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

y = 2

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

To determine the equation of the line that passes through (10,2) and (-3,2), we need to determine the slope of the line. Then substitute the slope and any given point in point slope form to obtain the equation of the line.

<h3>Finding the Slope of the line:</h3>

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} = \dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

<u>Substitute the coordinates of the given points:</u>

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{2 - 2}{-3 - 10 }$

<u>Simplify the equation to determine the slope:</u>

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{0}{-3 - 10 }$

∴ 0 divided by ANY number is ALWAYS 0.

$\implies \text{Slope} =0$

<h3>Finding the equation of the line:</h3>

Point slope form formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

x₁ and y₁ are the coordinates of any given point.
m is the slope

<u>Substitute the values in the point slope form:</u>

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1} )$

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y - 2 = 0(x - 10)$

<u>Simplify the equation to determine the equation of the line:</u>

∴ Any number multiplied by 0 is 0.

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y - 2 = 0$

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y = 0 + 2$

$\implies \text{Equation of line:} \ y = 2$

Thus, the equation of the line is y = 2.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level

Null hypothesis ; H0 : p = 0.47

Alternative hypothesis : H1 : p ≠ 0.47

Step-by-step explanation:

percentage favoring construction of adjoining community = 47%

level = 0.05

To determine if the 0.05 confidence level is enough to support the major's claim we have to state the Null and alternative hypothesis

Null hypothesis ; H0 : p = 0.47

Alternative hypothesis : H1 : p ≠ 0.47

Answer: power of a power

Step-by-step explanation:

in the expression (x^4)^9, 4 and 9 are powers. 9 is the power of x^4, so you have to multiply 4 by 9 to get x^36. this means it's a power of a power
