***NOTE*** we are going to use the rise over run formula to solve this problem

Joe climbed a mountain with a rise of 1, 200 feet and a run of 1, 500 feet.
So, the slope would be:

1, 200 over 1, 500

which can be simplified...

1,200/1,500 = 12/15 = 4/5

When we solve for slope for Bob, we do the same thing.

He climbed a mountain with a rise 900 feet and a run of 1, 000 feet.

So, it would look like this after we simplify it...

900/1,000 = 9/10

Finally, since Bob's mountain has the largest slope (or fraction), that means that he climbed the steepest mountain.

I hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need help with anything else! I'd be happy to help you!!

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (4, 4) and (4, - 4) .
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

  • Slope = undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We know that:</u>

  • Slope Formula = y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁

<u>Solution:</u>

  • y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁ = -4 - 4/4 - 4
  • => -8/0 = undefined

Since the slope of the line is un-defined, the line is vertical. Please look at my graph to understand better.

Write a two point slope equations for the line passing through the points 6,5 and 3,1
Gwar [14]

The 2-point form of the equation of a line can be written as ...

... y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)·(x -x1) +y1

For your points, this is ...

... y = (1-5)/(3-6)·(x -6) +5

... y = (4/3)(x -6) +5

It can also be written as

... y -5 = (4/3)(x -6)

Which values of k are solutions to the inequality StartAbsoluteValue negative k minus 2 EndAbsoluteValue less-than 18? Check all
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

You could just replace all the given possible values of k in the inequality and see which ones are solutions, but let's solve this in a more interesting way:

First, remember how the absolute value works:

IxI = x if x ≥ 0

IxI = -x if x ≤ 0

Then if we have something like:

IxI < B

We can rewrite this as

-B < x < B

Now let's answer the question, here we have the inequality:

I-k -2I < 18

Then we can rewrite this as:

-18 < (-k - 2) < 18

Now let's isolate k:

first, we can add 2 in the 3 parts of the inequality:

-18 + 2 < -k - 2 + 2 < 18 + 2

-16 < -k < 20

Now we can multiply all sides by -1, remember that this also changes the direction of the signs, then:

-1*-16 > -1*-k > -1*20

16 > k > -20

Then k can be any value between these two limits.

So the correct options (from the given ones) are:

k = -16

k = -8

k = 0
