What is the slope of the line that passes through (-3,7) and (5,-1)

Mathematics

Alchen [17]3 years ago

To find the slope(m), use the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}     And plug in the two points on the line

(-3, 7) = (x₁, y₁)

(5, -1) = (x₂, y₂)

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-1-7}{5-(-3)}  (two negative signs cancel each other out and become positive)

m=\frac{-1-7}{5+3}

m=\frac{-8}{8}     Simplify the fraction

m = -1

Marc mixes blue and yellow paint to make his favorite shade of green, which he'll use to paint his house. He has 14 cans of blue
exis [7]

The ratio of blue paint to yellow paint is 2 : 3.

The total number of blue paint he used on the first and second day is 10.

The number of yellow paint he used on the first and second day is 15.

On the third day, the highest number of can of blue paint he can use is 2

On the third day, the highest number of can of yellow paint he can use is 3.

<h3>What is the highest number of blue and yellow paint he can use?</h3>

The ratio of blue paint to yellow paint can be determined by determining the simplest form of the paints used: 4 : 6 = 2: 3

Total blue paint cans used on the first and second day = 4 + 6 = 10

Blue paint cans remaining = 14 - 10 = 4

Total yellow paint cans used on the first and second day = 6 + 9 = 15 cans

Yellow paint cans remaining = 20 - 15 = 5 cans

Part A: A graph passes through the points (0, 4), (1, 8), and (2, 10). Does this graph represent a linear function or a non-line
IRISSAK [1]
Part A:  In (0,4) and (1,8), as x increases from 0 to 1, y increases from 4 to 8.  The slope of the line connecting these 2 pts. is (8-4) / (1-0), or 4.  Now do the same thing for the 2 pts (1,8) and (2, 10).  You will find that the slope in the 2nd case is different.  Thus, the 3 given pts do NOT lie on a straight line.  Function is non-linear.

Part B:  an example of a non-linear function would be y = 2x^2 - 5.  You can tell immediately from that exponent, 2, that this function is non linear.

An ex. of a linear function would include x to the 1st power only:  y = 3x - 7.
