You can find the slope either by just looking at the line or using the slope formula.
#1: The slope formula is:
Find two points and plug it into the formula
I will use (0, 2) and (1, -1)
(0, 2) = (x₁, y₁)
(1, -1) = (x₂, y₂)
[two negatives cancel each other out and become positive]
m = -3
#2: To find the slope without having to do the work, you use this:
Rise is the number of units you go up(+) or down(-) from each point
Run is the number of units you go to the right from each point
If we start at a defined/obvious point, like (0, 2), find the next point and see how many units it goes up or down and to the right. The next point is (1, -1), so from each point, you go down 3 units and to the right 1 unit. So your slope is -3/1 or -3. You can make sure the slope is right by looking at another point.
Answer:
x = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
5 (x + 20) = 7 x + 30
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
5 x + 100 = 7 x + 30
Subtract 7 x from both sides:
(5 x - 7 x) + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
5 x - 7 x = -2 x:
-2 x + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
7 x - 7 x = 0:
100 - 2 x = 30
Subtract 100 from both sides:
(100 - 100) - 2 x = 30 - 100
100 - 100 = 0:
-2 x = 30 - 100
30 - 100 = -70:
-2 x = -70
Divide both sides of -2 x = -70 by -2:
(-2 x)/(-2) = (-70)/(-2)
(-2)/(-2) = 1:
x = (-70)/(-2)
The gcd of -70 and -2 is -2, so (-70)/(-2) = (-2×35)/(-2×1) = (-2)/(-2)×35 = 35:
Answer: x = 35
Answer:
A. E={
and 
is a multiple of 8}
Step-by-step explanation:
Let represent the set of natural numbers. Then we can write;
.
The set of all natural numbers that are multiples of 8 is then written as;
and is a multiple of 8.
E is the set of natural numbers that are multiples of 8 can then be written in set builder notation as;
E={ and is a multiple of 8}
The correct choice is A
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If a line is parallel to another it must have the same slope
The slope/intercept form of a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b the y intercept
The line y = 2x + 5 has slope 2
So the slope of the line that passes through (2,3) must also have the slope 2
We have
y = 2x + b; Substituting x =2, y =3 in this equation gives us
3 = 2 (2) + b or b = -1
Hence the equation of the line is
y = 2x -1
Cross-check
Substitute for x = 2 ==> y = 2(2) - 1 = 3 which is consistent
P=2l+2w
100=2l+2w
divide both sides by 2
50=l+w
So what two numbers that have a sum of 50 have the largest product?
25*25=625 which makes for a large area, the largest
answer=l=25 w=25
