Which equation represents the line that passes through the points (2,7) and (1,5)

Mathematics

Dimas [21]3 years ago

Answer:

First we get the slope of line with points (2,3) & (1,5):

m=%28y%5B2%5D-y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D-x%5B1%5D%29

m=%285-3%29%2F%281-2%29=2%2F%28-1%29

m=-2, slope

Knowing the slop, we can get the intercept in point (1,1):

y=mx%2Bb, SLOPE- INTERCEPT

1=-2%281%29%2Bb

b=1%2B2=3

so, the eqn of the line: highlight%28y=-2x%2B3%29

The line with points (2,3) & (1,5): same slope because parallel, we'll check

 

VIA POINT SLOPE FORM:

m=%28y%5B2%5D-y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D-x%5B1%5D%29

m=%285-3%29%2F%281-2%29=2%2F-1 ----> m=-2, same right?

For the intercept thru pints (2,3):

Via SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM, we pick points (2,3)

3=-2%282%29%2Bb

b=3%2B4=7 ----> y intercept. The same value if you pick points (1,5).

Eqn of line: y=-2x%2B7 (Green line) parallel to y=-2x%2B3 (Red line)

See the graph,

--- see red line, it passes at point (1,1). Also green line passes points (2,3) & (1,5)

Which expression has the same value as 97.6 – (-77.8)?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

97.6 + 77.8

Step-by-step explanation:

97.6-(-77.8)

= 97.6+77.8

97.6+77.8= 175.4

97.6-(-77.8) = 175.4

A rectangle has a length that is 9 inches less than twice its width. The area of the rectangle is 180 square inches.
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let the width = w

Two times its width = 2*w = 2w

9 inches less than 2w = 2w - 9

Length = 2w - 9

Area of rectangle = length *width = 180 square inches

(2w - 9 ) * w = 180

2w*w - 9*w = 180

2w² - 9w - 180 = 0

b) sum = -9

Product= -360

Factors  = -24 , 15    {15 *[-24] = -360 and 15 + (-24) = -9 }

2w² - 9w - 180 = 0

2w² - 24w + 15w - 180 = 0

2w(w - 12w) + 15(w - 12) = 0

(w -12) (2w + 15) = 0

{Ignore 2w + 15 = 0 as measurements cannot be a -ve value}

w - 12 = 0

w = 12 inches

l = 2w -9

 = 2*12 - 9

= 24 - 9

l = 15

length = 15 inches

Width = 12 inches

c) Perimeter = 2 *(length + width)

                     = 2*(15 + 12)

                     = 2 * 27

                     = 54  inches
