Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \sf{ \frac{4}{3} }}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\star{ \sf{ \: Let \: the \: points \: be \: A \: and \: B}}

\star{ \sf{ \: Let \: a(2,-1)  \: be \: (x1 \:, y1) \: and \: b (5,3)  \: be \: (x2 \:, y2)}}

\underline{ \sf{Finding \: the \: slope \: of \: the \: line}}

\boxed{ \sf{Slope =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} }}

\mapsto{ \sf{Slope =  \frac{3 - ( - 1)}{5 - 2} }}

\mapsto{ \sf{Slope =  \frac{3 + 1}{5 - 2}}}

\mapsto{ \sf{Slope =  \frac{4}{3} }}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Answer:

<em>y=-0.2x+5. Correct choice: A)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Modeling With Equations</u>

Let's call x the number of minutes and y the distance from home. The correct model should meet both conditions:

After 5 minutes, Ye is 4 miles from home. This is the ordered pair (5,4)

After 15 minutes, Ye is 2 miles from home. This is the ordered pair (15,2)

A) y=-0.2x+5. Testing the first point (5,4): y=-0.2*5+5=4. Correct

Testing the second point (15,2): y=-0.2*15+5=2. Correct

This is the correct choice.

B) y=11/7x-27/7. Testing the first point: (5,4) y=11/7*5-27/7=4. Correct

Testing the second point (15,2). y=11/7*15-27/7=138/7. Incorrect

Incorrect choice.

C) This equation is equal to the choice B), thus this one is incorrect.

D) y=5x-0.2. The first point (5,4) yields to:

4=5*5-0.2=24.8 Incorrect.

Answer:

Parallelogram Height = 6 cm * sine (60)

Height = 6 * 0.86603

Height = 5.19618

Parallelogram Area = Height * Side TH

Parallelogram Area = 5.19618 * 8

Parallelogram Area = 41.56944 square cm
