Answer:

<em>y= - x + 4</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is:

y= m ( x - h )+ k

Where m is the slope and (h,k) is a point through which the line passes.

The slope of the line is m=-1 and it passes through (-1,5), thus the equation of the line is:

y=(-1) ( x - (-1) ) + 5

Operating:

y= - ( x + 1 ) + 5

y= - x - 1 + 5

Simplifying:

y= - x + 4

Answer: 259/260 or 0.99615 (depending on which answer format your teacher wants)

There are 10 numbers in the set {0, 1, 2, ..., 9}. There are 26 letters in the set {A, B, C, ..., Z}. Multiply those values: 10*26 = 260. So there are 260 ways to pick a number followed by a letter. One example is 7P.

There is only one way Matthew can get the correct answer, and there are 260 - 1 = 259 ways to get the wrong answer. We divide 259 over 260 to get the probability of getting the incorrect answer, which is 259/260.

If you need this fraction in decimal form, then use a calculator to find that 259/260 = 0.99615 approximately

What is the measure of x?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(x+5) *x = 6^2

x^2 +5x = 36

Subtract 36 from each side

x^2 +5x - 36 = 0

Factor

( x-4) (x+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

x-4 = 0  x+9 =0

x = 4  x=-9

Cannot be negative since that is negative length

x=4
