Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

take two points on the line ,i take (-4,0) and (0,-2)

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(-2-0)/(0+4)=-2/4=-1/2

Answer: -1/2

Step-by-step explanation: In algebra, we use the word <em>slope</em> to describe how steep a line is and slope can be found using the ratio rise/run between any 2 points that are on that line.

So for the line you see here, I have labeled 2 distinct points. One of the points crosses the x-axis and one of them crosses the y-axis. let's use the points A and B to find its slope.

To get from point A to point B, we must first go down 2 units so our rise is -2 and our run is 4 units. So our slope or <em>rise/run</em> is -2/4.

As a last step to these problems, make sure you have reduced your slope as much as possible and notice that -2/4 can be reduced to -1/2.

The variable that's used to represent slope is <em>m</em>.

So we can say that m = -1/2.

WHY must the same operation be performed on both sides of an equation? ​
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:When you are given a problem, the two sides are equal, so they are equally weighted. As long as you do the same thing on both sides, they remain the same weight. The only way that one side can become "more weight" on a side is if you make a math mistake, and thus the answer would not satisfy the original equation

Step-by-step explanation:looked it up... have a good day!

In triangle MPN, angle P is a right angle. If cos N= 3/5 which of the following statements is true
Bezzdna [24]

Answer: Sin N = \frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

In triangle MPN, ∠P=90°

\cos N=\frac{3}{5}

As we know the formula for "Trigonometric Ratios":

\cos N=\frac{Base}{Hypotenuse}=\frac{3}{5}

By Pythagorus theorem , we get

H^2=B^2+P^2\\\\5^2=3^2+P^2\\\\25=9+P^2\\\\25-9=P^2\\\\16=P^2\\\\P=\sqrt{16}\\\\P=4\ units

So, we get,

\sin N=\frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}=\frac{4}{5}

Hence, Sin N = \frac{4}{5}
