Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we can calculate the slope

using the formula below;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Where (x1.y1) = (6,-8)

(x2, y2) = (3,-4)

So inputing these values into the formula, we have

m = (-4-(-8))/(3-6)

m = (-4+8)/-3 = 4/-3 = -4/3

Now, we want to write the equation of the line;

y= -4/3x + c

to get the value of c, we simply need to use any of the points. We use any of the two points by substituting the values of x and y at that point.

Let’s use (3,-4)

That would give ;

-4 = -4/3(3) + c

-4 = -4 + c

This means c = 0

Thus the equation of the line is y = -4/3x

Now to find out if the point (-3,4) is on the line

We only need to substitute the values of x and y here and see ;

Thus;

4 = -4/3(-3)

Sine 4 = 4

We can conclude that the point is on the line in question

Help please ! order the side lengths GH , HI , IG from least to greatest
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

IH < IG < HG

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation remember that angle measurements correspond with sides. So, the largest angle will be opposite of the longest side and the smallest angle will be opposite of the shortest side.

First, you need to find m<I; do this by subtracting 52 and 45 from 180. This means that m<I=83, making it the largest angle. Therefore, the angles, in order of least to greatest, are <G, <H, <I. So, to find the final answer, find the sides opposite of each of the angles. This means the answer is IH < IG < HG.
