Answer:

Therefore the Slope of the line is

$Slope=-\dfrac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let,

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 1 , -5)

point B( x₂ , y₂ )≡ (-4 , -2)

To Find:

Slope of Line AB =?

Solution:

Slope of line between Two points is given as

$Slope(AB)=\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

Substituting the values we get

$Slope=\dfrac{-2-(-5)}{-4-1}=\dfrac{3}{-5}$

Therefore the Slope of the line is

$Slope=-\dfrac{3}{5}$

A new car is purchased for $17,000 and over time its value depreciates by one half every 3 years. What is the value of the car 1

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The answer is "$238".

Step-by-step explanation:

Current worth $= \$ 17,000$

depreciates by $\frac{1}{2}$ in 3 years.

time= 19 years

depreciates rate=?

Using formula:

$\to \text{Worth= Current worth}(1- \frac{\text{depreciates rate}}{100})^{time}$

$\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t$

calculates depreciate value in 3 year $= \frac{1}{2} \times 17,000$

$= 8,500$

so,

$A_t=8,500\\\\A_0=17,000\\\\t=3\ years$

$\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t\\\\\to 8,500= 17,000(1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{8,500}{17,000}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{1}{2}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{3}}= (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to 0.793700526 = (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.793700526)\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.8)\\\\\to r= 0.2 \times 100 \\\\\to r= 20 \%$

depreciates rate= 20%

$\to \text{Worth= Current worth}(1- \frac{\text{depreciates rate}}{100})^{time}$

$= \$ 17,000 (1- \frac{20}{100})^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 (1-0.2)^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 (0.8)^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 \times 0.014\\\\= \$ 238$

Select the measures of the angles of a triangle whose angles have measures in the ratio 6:8:10

morpeh [17]

Answer:

45, 60, 75

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the angles are 6:8:10

Multiply by x to get the angle measures

6x, 8x,10x

We know the sum of the angles is 180 for a triangle

6x+8x+10x = 180

Combine like terms

24x = 180

Divide each side by 24

24x/24 = 180/24

x =7.5

Each angle is

6x = 6(7.5) =45

8x = 8(7.5) =60

10x = 10*7.5 = 75

Compare 9.36 and 9.359

Sati [7]

Try this option (this is not the only way!):

1. the rule: if 'number_1' - 'number_2' > 0, then number_1>number_2. If 'number_1'-'number_2'<0, then number_2>number_1.

2. according to the rule above: 9.36-9.359=0.001. 0.001>0, it means, 9.36>9.359.

Which graphs have rotational symmetry? Check all of the boxes that apply.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The correct option are;

On a coordinate plane, a cubic function has an x-intercept of (0, 0)

On a coordinate plane, an oval is in quadrant 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotational symmetry of a shape is a shape that when it is rotated on its axis to a given angle less than one complete revolution, the shape looks exactly like the pre-image or original appearance of the shape

For a cubic function that has x-intercept = (0, 0) we have;

y = f(x) = a·x³ + b·x² + c·x

Has the shape f a fan blade and therefore, looks the sane when rotated when rotated through 180°

The shape of an oval looks the same when rotated through 180°
