Answer:

m=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

So our equation to find the slope is:

       y₂-y₁

m=   -------

       x₂-x₁

(1,-4) is our first coordinate pair, which means that we will put them like this:

1=x₁

-4=y₁

(5,-8) is our second coordinate pair, which means that we will put them like this:

5=x₂

-8=y₂

We can substitute these numbers into the original equation:

     -8-(-4)

m= ---------

       5-1

Then we can simplify::

-8+4     -4

------- = ---- =  -1

 4         4

m=-1

Answer: y= -1x+b, or -x+b

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is 1 because you have to plug in the formula, y2-y1/x2-x1.  -8-(-4)/5-1. This is equal to -4/4, which is -1.

Help me wit this pls do now
Anna [14]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

If x represents the number of dimes, then 2x will represent twice the number of dimes. This is the number of quarters, since there are twice as many quarters as dimes.

There are 6 more nickels than dimes, so the number of nickels is 6 more than x. It is (x+6).

If we use the monetary values in cents, then the total of all coins is ...

  25(2x) +10(x) + 5(x+6) = 485 . . . . . . matches choice D

Ivanshal [37]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare the given equation ...

  y = (x -2)^2 +3

to the vertex form ...

  y = (x -h)^2 +k

You can see that h=2 and k=3.

The vertex of the parabola is (h, k) = (2, 3).
