What is the equation of this line? Picture included

A straight line needs two pieces of information to be identified, a gradient and a y-intercept (technically any point will do but the y-intercept is particularly convenient if we have it).

The gradient is calculated by taking two points on the line, and dividing the change in y-coordinate by the change in x-coordinate between them. I'm going to take the points (0,-3) and (2,-2).

The change in y-coordinate is (-2) - (-3) = 1

The change in x-coordinate is (2) - (0) = 2.

Gradient = m = 1/2

Next we identify the y-intercept, the value of y when x = 0. This value is -3, and we call it c.

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + c. Slotting in the values for m and c we have ascertained, we find that the equation of this line is:

y = (1/2)x - 3

I hope this helps :)

Is the line through points P(2, –5) and Q(–5, –1) parallel to the line through points R(5, 4) and S(–2, 5)? Explain.
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

the answer is No

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the first line has a slope of -4/7 and the other line has a slope of -1/7. This can be shown in point slope form y-y1=m(x-x1) where m=∆y/∆x.

Through points P and Q, the point slope is represented as -1-(-5)=m(-5-2) ; 4 = -7m ; m = 4/-7. The next two points R and S can be shown in point slope as 5-4=m(-2-5) ; 1 = -7m ; m =1/-7. With the fact that parallel lines must have equal slopes, these two lines cannot be parallel because -4/7≠-1/7

Your friend claims that it is possible to draw a right triangle where the cosine of either angle (theta) is exactly the same val
avanturin [10]

Answer:

B. No

Cos \ \theta\neq Cos (90-\theta)\textdegree

Step-by-step explanation:

-A right angle triangle has two complimentary acute angles and one right angle.

-\theta is usually one of the acute angles and is equivalent to 90º minus it's complimentary acute angle.

-Complimentary angles add up to 90º.

#For complimentary angles:

Sin \ \theta=Cos \ (90-\theta)\textdegree\\\\Cos \ \theta=Sin(90-\theta)\textdegree\\\\\therefore Cos \ \theta\neq Cos (90-\theta)\textdegree

The two acute angles cannot have the same Cosine value.

Hence, she's not correct.
