Answer:
5.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use Pyth Theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + b^2 = 8^2
36 + b^2 = 64
b^2 = 28
Sq root of 28 = 5.3
(1, 1) the slope is 2 and slopes can be read the easiest when expressed as a fraction (2/1) when the numerator (2) expresses how many digits you move the point up and the denominator (1) expresses how many points you move right
The easiest way is to graph it based upon the slope (m) and y-intercept (b), in the standard slope-intercept form: y = m (x) + b.
The line above intercepts the y-axis at y = -2, which is b. The slope (m) = rise/run = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1 ); so for the point (-4, 2) to (-6, 4) is:
(4-2)/(-6--4) = 2/(-6+4) = 2/-2 = -1.
So one form of the equation would be:
y = -1x - 2
Now the other form of an equation is point-slope: y-k = m (x-h), where the point is at (h, k)
and if we pick -5 for x (bc 5 it listed in 3 of the answers), the y at x=-5 looks like around +3
so we get: y-k = -1 (x--5)...
y-3 = -(x+5)... therefore D) is the correct answer:
