Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b (m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 -- > (0 , y))

To find the slope (m), you use the slope formula and plug in 2 points.

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

(x₁ , y₁) = (1 , 20)

(x₂, y₂) = (5 , 10)

m=\frac{10-20}{5-1}=\frac{-10}{4}=-\frac{5}{2}

y=-\frac{5}{2}x+b    To find b, plug in a point into the equation (1,20)

20=-\frac{5}{2}(1)+b    Add 5/2 on both sides

20+\frac{5}{2}=b

\frac{40}{2}+\frac{5}{2}=b

22.5 = b

y=-\frac{5}{2}x+22.5

Your y-intercept is (0, 22.5) or (0, 45/2)

The x-intercept is the x value when y = 0 ---> (x, 0)

To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 in the equation

0 = -5/2x + 22.5

-22.5 = -5/2x     Multiply -2/5 on both sides to get x by itself

9 = x

Your x-intercept is (9, 0)

Which of the following shows the correct value of 50
Orlov [11]

Answer:

None of the options is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to know that he expression a < x < b means that x is greater than a and less than b. So, for finding the correct value let's analyse each option.

A. 4 < 50 < 5

50 is greater than 4 but it is not less than 5, so, option A is incorrect.

B. 7 < 50 < 8

50 is greater than 7 but it is not less than 8, so, option B is incorrect.

C. 8 < 50 < 9

50 is greater than 8 but it is not less than 9, so, option C is incorrect.

D. 10 < 50 < 11

50 is greater than 10 but it is not less than 11, so, option D is incorrect.

Thus, none of the options is correct.

Amanda [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

you put the values in place of the variable names and calculate.

y² + x + y

(-4)² + -3 + -4 = 16 - 3 - 4 = 16 - 7 = 9

In a right triangle, the acute angles measure 2x+50 and 3x degrees
xenn [34]
2x+50 + 3x= 90 degrees
5x +50 = 90
5x =40
x=8

Angle1= 2(8) +50= 66
Angle2= 3(8)=24

66+24+90= 180
