Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot J and K in a coordinate plane, you see that the line formed is a perfectly horizontal line through y = 2.  In order for this triangle to be an isosceles, the third x-coordinate would have to be located midway through the x-coordinates of the base.  The midpoint between the x-coordinates is found by adding the 2 x-coordinates and dividing the sum by 2.  -6+\3 = -3 and -3/2 = -3/2.  So the x-coordinate is -3.2 or -1.5

Answer:

  -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The third vertex of an isosceles triangle is on the perpendicular bisector of the base. Here, the base is on the horizontal line y=2, so the perpendicular bisector will be on the vertical line with the x-value the same as the midpoint of the base.

That x-value is (-6 +3)/2 = -3/2.

A scuba divers dove 950 feet below the surface in 19 minutes what integer represents the average rate of change for this dive?
NeTakaya
"950 feet in 19 minutes" can be expressed as the rate  (950/19) (ft/min), and is negative because the diver is descending (going downward).

Simplifying, -950/19 (ft/min) = -50 (ft/min)

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-3,<br> -5) and (-1, - 6)?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -6 - -5)/( -1 - -3)

   = ( -6+5)/( -1+3)

   =-1/ 2
