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

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alchen [17]3 years ago
6 0

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

Given line AB and point O on that line, any ray that can be drawn with its endpoint at O can be put into a one- to-one correspon
natima [27]

Answer:

Protractor

Step-by-step explanation:

A POSTULATE, LAW OR THEORY SHOULD NEVER BE ALTERED

∴ The protractor postulate states that the measurement of an angle between two rays can be designated as a unique number, and this number would be between 0 and 180 degrees, Hence for every angle A, there corresponds a positive real number less than or equal to 180. This postulate guarantee the use of a protractor to measure angles.

Hence, Given line AB and point O on that line in such a way that any ray that can be drawn with its endpoint at O can be put into a one- to-one correspondence with the real numbers between 0 and 180 is a statement that explains Protractor's Postulate.

frozen [14]

Answer:

x must equal 0 or - 10

and y must equal 1 or 6

so its 3 x 0 = 0 plus 6 x 1 = 6

or 3 x -10 = -30 plus 6 x 6 = 36 so -30 plus 36 is 6

The number of paychecks Jalen will have to save until he can purchase the laptop is 6

<h3>How many paychecks will Jalen have to save until he can purchase the laptop? </h3>

<u>Define your variable</u>

To do this, we use the following variables

  • x represents the number of paychecks
  • y represents the cost of the laptop

<u>Set up an equation, and solve it.</u>

In (a), we have:

  • x represents the number of paychecks
  • y represents the cost of the laptop

Using the above variables, the equation is:

y = 200 + 50x

The cost of the laptop is $500.

So, we have:

200 + 50x = 500

Evaluate the like terms

50x = 300

Divide by 50

x = 6

Hence, the number of paychecks Jalen will have to save until he can purchase the laptop is 6

If the probability of a chance event is 0.82, it is more likely to happen than which of the following probabilities of another c
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Things to remember:

- You can add as many 0's on the end of a decimal and it will still equal the same number, as long as the 0's are on the right side of the decimal point. For example, 0.7 = 0.7000.

- The lowest value has the lowest probability

So, let's rewrite the options with the same amount of decimal points:

1.00

0.90

0.80

0.85

Now, find the value under 0.82. In this option, the lowest value is 0.80, and it is under 0.82, so it is the answer.
