Slope of line
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(-4--6)/(6--2)
=2/8
=1/4
Line in two point form
(y-y1)=m(x-x1)
y--2=(1/4)(x-6)
y+2=(1/4)(x-6)
simplify
4(y+2)=x-6 =>
x-4y-14=0
Alternatively, use the slope intercept form:
y--2=(1/4)(x-6) =>
y=(1/4)x - 3/2-2 =>
y=(1/4)x -7/2
Because this shape has 2 right angles, we can confirm that it has one set of parallel sides and is a trapezoid. Therefore, use the formula for area of a trapezoid, .5(b1+b2)(h)
.5(1+6)(12)
.5(7)(12)
42 units^2
Answer: 1,4 is the answer
The expression would be:
3x
x=number of plays
Insert 4:
3(4)
=12
They would 12 yards after 4 plays if losing 3 yards every play.
A histogram would best represent the data.
Dot plot is a good way to show a certain trend. However, when it comes to the number of a item, in this case the number of students in a certain score range, a histogram will be the most intuitive and concise. Thus, a histogram best represent the data presented here.
