Answer:
m = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find two clear points:
(1, -2) (0, 1)
Then, use the slope formula:
m = <u>y2 - y1</u>
x2 - x1
m = <u>1 - (-2)</u>
0 - 1
= <u>3</u> = -3
-1
m = -3
This means that the rise-over-run is -3 over 1, or 3 over -1.
Which means three down and 1 to the right, or 3 up and 1 to the left.
Slope is the steepness of the line.
The path of the car and the limo are straight lines.
To determine the equation of the lines of the paths, the slopes must be determined.
Let m1 = slope of car
m2 = slope of limo
so,
m1 = (7 + 7)/(5 + 2) = 2
m2 = (-5 -9)/(3+4) = -2
therefore the equations are
car:
2x – y = 2(5) –(7)
2x – y = 3
Limo:
2x + y = 2(3) – 5
2x + y = 1
Solving the intersection of the equations (using a calculator)
x = 1
y = -1
Answer:
-226,981
Step-by-step explanation:
This is how you do it.
First, you do 3-2 which is 1.
Then, you do 3-4 to the 3rd power which is -61.
After, you do 1*-61 because there are parenthesis, which equals -61.
Then, you do -61, which is the total of everything in parenthesis, and do it times the power of 3 to get -226,981.
Hope it helps!!^_^
