The slope of the line that passes throug the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(a,2a) and (b,2b)
(x,y)
x1=a
y1=2a
x2=b
y2=2b

slope=(2b-2a)/(b-a)=2(b-a)/(b-a)=2(1)=2

the slope is 2
yeh you are right

Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) the slope of the line that passes through these points will be:
m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

In this case the points are: (a,2a) and (b,2b) and the slope would be:
m=(2b-2a)/(b-a)=2(b-a)/(b-a)=2

Answer;  B.) 2

Yes you are right.

The sum of two numbers is 62, and their difference is 8. What are the numbers
Lemur [1.5K]
Sum of two numbers is 62?
Let's call the two numbers a and b

let's find two same numbers that would add up to 62: 31.
31 + 31 = 62

since it said the difference is 8, we have to add 4 to one number and subtract 4 from another.
31 - 4 = 27
31 + 4 = 35

Therefore, the two numbers following the given rules are 27 and 35

A submarine travels 6.6 km due West from its base and then turns and travels due South for 3.9
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

7.7 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The submarine's path from its base forms a right triangle when its final position is "connected" to the base. We know that the right triangle has legs of 6.6 km and 3.9 km, and we need to find the length of its hypotenuse. To do so, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that in a right triangle, a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2}, where a and b are the lengths of the triangle's legs and c is the length of the triangle's hypotenuse. In this case, we know what a and b are, and we need to solve for c, so after substituting the given values of a and b into a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2} to solve for c, we get:

a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2}

6.6^{2} +3.9^{2} =c^{2} (Substitute a=6.6 and b=3.9 into the equation)

43.56+15.21=c^{2} (Evaluate the squares on the LHS)

58.77=c^{2} (Simplify the LHS)

c^{2}=58.77 (Symmetric Property of Equality)

\sqrt{c^{2} } =\sqrt{58.77} (Take the square root of both sides of the equation)

c=7.7,c=-7.7 (Simplify)

c=-7.7 is an extraneous solution because you can't have negative distance, if that makes sense, so therefore, the submarine is approximately 7.7 km away from its base. Hope this helps!
