What is the slope of o line that passes through (-4,-14) and (19,11)?

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

D, see description below.

There is a possible typo in the problem since these points have slope 25/23.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line, calculate the distance between points with a ratio of vertical to horizontal distance. This is done using the formula:

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

Here the points are (-4,-14) and (19,11). Substitute and simplify.

$m=\frac{11--14}{19--4}=\frac{11+14}{19+4}=\frac{25}{23}$

I think there is a typo in your points (-4,-14) and (19,11) because the answer doesn't align to the answer choices. But based on them, I would answer D or 24/23 since it's the closest value.

Prove that the product of any two consecutive natural numbers is even.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the 2 consecutive natural numbers are 'n' and 'n+1'

Thus the product of the 2 numbers is given by

$Product=n(n+1)\\\\$

We know that the sum of 'n' consecutive natural numbers starting from 1 is

$S_n=\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\\\\\therefore n(n+1)=2\times S_n............(i)$

Thus from equation 'i' we can write

$Product=2\times S_n$

As we know that any number multiplied by 2 is even thus we conclude that the product of 2 consecutive numbers is even.

Find the approximate perimeter of the trapezoid? PLSSS HELPPP

choli [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

side 1 = |18-3|= 15

side 2 = |12-3| = 9

side 3 = |16-4| = 12

side 4: $\sqrt{(18-12)^2 + (4-16)^2} \\ \sqrt{36+144} \\ = \sqrt{180} \\ = 13,4$

perimeter = 15 + 9 + 12 + 13,4= 49,4 = 49

Solve the proportion

mario62 [17]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf x = 5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf Solve \: for \: x \: over \: the \: real \: numbers: \\ \sf \implies \frac{2}{x - 3} = \frac{5}{x} \\ \\ \sf Take \: the \: reciprocal \: of \: both \: sides: \\ \sf \implies \frac{x - 3}{2} = \frac{x}{5} \\ \\ \sf Expand \: out \: terms \: of \: the \: left \: hand \: side: \\ \\ \sf \implies \frac{x}{2} - \frac{3}{2} = \frac{x}{5} \\ \\ \sf Subtract \: \frac{x}{5} - \frac{3}{2} \: from \: both \: sides: \\ \sf \implies \frac{x}{2} - \frac{3}{2} - ( \frac{x}{5} - \frac{3}{2} ) = \frac{x}{5} - ( \frac{x}{5} - \frac{3}{2} ) \\ \\ \sf \implies \frac{x}{2} - \frac{3}{2} - \frac{x}{5} + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{x}{5} - \frac{x}{5} + \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ \sf \frac{x}{5} - \frac{x}{5} = 0 : \\ \sf \implies \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x}{5} - \frac{3}{2} + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ \sf \frac{3}{2} - \frac{3}{2} = 0: \\ \sf \implies \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x}{5} = \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ \sf \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x}{5} = \frac{5x - 2x}{10} = \frac{3x}{10} : \\ \sf \implies \frac{3x}{10} = \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ \sf Multiply \: both \: sides \: by \: \frac{10}{3} : \\ \sf \implies \frac{3x}{10} \times \frac{10}{3} = \frac{3}{2 } \times \frac{10}{3} \\ \\ \sf \frac{3x}{10} \times \frac{10}{3} = \cancel{\frac{3}{10} } \times( x) \times \cancel{ \frac{10}{3} } = x : \\ \sf \implies x = \frac{3}{2} \times \frac{10}{3} \\ \\ \sf \frac{3}{2} \times \frac{10}{3} = \cancel{ \frac{3}{2} } \times \cancel{ \frac{3}{2} } \times 5 : \\ \sf \implies x = 5$
