What's the slope of (-4,7)(-2,17)

Mathematics

yaroslaw [1]3 years ago

Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) the slope of the line passes through these points will be:

m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

Data:
The points are (-4,7) and (-2,17), then the slope will be:
m=(17-7)/(-2+4)=7/2

Answer: the slope of the line passes through these points would be 7/2

To find slope you put the two points into the formula of y2-y1/x2-x1= slope... your problem should turn out like 17-7/-2+4 = 10/2= your answer is slope=5 Good luck! :)

I don’t know how to solve this
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) =( 8, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 5)

m = \frac{-5+3}{0-8} = \frac{-2}{-8} = \frac{1}{4}

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 5 ) ⇒ c = - 5

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5 ← equation of line

Which of the following comparisons is correct?<br>-2 2<br>4&lt;−4<br>−6&lt; −5
zlopas [31]
<h3>Answer: Choice D)   -6 < -5</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices

  • A) This is false because -2 is actually larger than -5. Make a number line and you'll see that -2 is to the right of -5. Numbers on the right are larger than numbers on the left.
  • B) This is also false. The value 0 is smaller than 2. A number line might help show this.
  • C) Also false. It should be 4 > -4. Any positive number is always larger than any negative number.
  • D) This is true. On a number line, -6 is to the left of -5, so -6 is smaller than -5. This makes -6 < -5 a true statement.

What is the solution for the following system of equations?<br><br>5x + 7y = 3<br><br>2x + 3y = 1
spayn [35]
<span>A) 5x + 7y = 3
B) 2x + 3y = 1

Multiplying Equation B by -2.5
</span><span>B) -5x -7.5y = -2.5 Then adding this to Equation A)
A) 5x + 7y = 3</span>

-.5y  = .5
y = -1

Since
<span>2x + 3y = 1 then
2x -3 = 1
then x = 2

Find the median of the following set of data:
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle value of the data set in ascending order. If there is no exact middle value then it is the average of the values either side of the middle.

Arrange the data in ascending order

48, 52, 54, 57, 57, 57, 61, 61, 65

                          ↑

The median of the data set is 57 → b

Two angles that have the sum of 180 degrees
evablogger [386]
Two angles that have the sum of 180 degrees are supplementary angles. If you need to find angle A, you just need to subtract angle B from 180 degree to find out the degree of the particular angle. Hope I helped.
