Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the most important things to understand about lines is the definition of slope. Slope is the 'steepness' of the line, also commonly known as rise over run. We can calculate slope by dividing the change in the y-value between two points over the change in the x-value.

The slope is also called the gradient of the line. It's a number that represents the direction and steepness of a line on a graph.

Hope this helps. :)

Which expression below gives the average rate of change of the function g(x) = -x2 - 4x on the interval 6 ≤ x ≤ 8 ?
Paha777 [63]

Answer: -18

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average rate of change is slope: \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}.  Need to find the y-coordinates:

g(x) = -x² - 4x

g(6) = -(6)² - 4(6)

      = -36 - 24

      = -60

⇒ (6, -60)

g(8) = -(8)² - 4(8)

      = -64 - 32

      = -96

⇒ (8, -96)

m = \frac{-96 - (-60)}{8 - 6}

   = \frac{-36}{2}

   = -18

Multiply. Express your answer in simplest form. 9 1/6 × 1 1/11
natka813 [3]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

9 1/6 × 1 1/11

Change each number to an improper fraction

9 1/6 = (6*9 +1)/6 = 55/6

1 1/11 = (11*1 +1) /11 = 12/11

55/6 * 12/11

Rearranging

12/6 *55/11

2/1 *5/1

A triangle has sides with lengths of 100 inches, 56 inches, and 80 inches. Is it a right triangle?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

If these sides come out true in the Pythagorean Theorem, then it is a right triangle.

a² + b² = c²

56² + 80² = 100²

3136 + 6400 = 10000

9536 ≠ 10000

Since these values do not come out true in the Pythagorean Theorem, it is not a right triangle.
