Y = mx + c
is the formula of a linear line
m is the slope/gradient:
So just take it out from the equation, it’s -2/3

A circle has the center of (1,-5) and a radius of 5 determine the location of the point (4,-1)
Sliva [168]

"determine the location" or namely, is it inside the circle, outside the circle, or right ON the circle?

well, we know the center is at (1,-5) and it has a radius of 5, so the distance from the center to any point on the circle will just be 5, now if (4,-1) is less than that away, is inside, if more than that is outiside and if it's exactly 5 is right ON the circle.

well, we can check by simply getting the distance from the center to the point (4,-1).

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ \stackrel{center}{(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})}\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-1})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d = \sqrt{[4-1]^2+[-1-(-5)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(4-1)^2+(-1+5)^2} \\\\\\ d = \sqrt{3^2+4^2}\implies d =\sqrt{9+16}\implies d=\sqrt{25}\implies \stackrel{\textit{right on the circle}}{d = 5}

The speed of the current is 7 mph. The boat travels three times slower against the current than with the current. What is the sp
kotykmax [81]
Let the speed of the boat be x
so going against the current the speed is x-7
going with the current the speed is x+7

let the distance be d
time = distance / speed
time to go against the current = d/(x-7)
time to go with the current = d/(x+7)

time going against the current is 3 times going <span>with the current
</span>
d/(x-7) = 3d/(x+7)     ⇒⇒⇒ divide by d 
1/(x-7) = 3/(x+7) 
x+7 = 3(x-7) 
x+7 = 3x - 21
2x = 28
x = 14

So, the speed of the boat in still water is = 14 mph
