Answer: The slope of a line is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points on the line.

So we have x1=0,y1=4 and x2=-8 y2=-1 this gives us =(-1-4)/(-8-0) =5/8

I don't know if this helped..

What is the length of the hypotenuse

Liula [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find Hypotenuse: Pythagorean Theroem

a^2+ b^2= c^2

The legs are A and B

The side that is directly across from the Right angle is C

12^2 + 16^2 =C^2

144+256=400

400 = c^2

Square root on both sides to get rid of c^2

The square root of 400 is 20

c=20

24% of students buy there lunch, 190 students bring their lunch from home. How many students are there in total

miv72 [106K]

so we know that 24% of the students buy their lunch at the cafeteria, and 190 students brownbag.

well, 100% - 24% = 76%, so the remainder of the students, the one that is not part of the 24% is 76%, and we know that's 190 of them.

since 190 is 76%, how much is the 24%?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 190&76\\ x&24 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{190}{x}=\cfrac{76}{24}\implies 4560=76x \\\\\\ \cfrac{4560}{76}=x\implies 60=x \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{total amount of students}}{190+60\implies 250}$
