(0,-5) \\
x_1=0 \\ y_1=-5 \\  \\
(4,2) \\
x_2=4 \\ y_2=2 \\ \\
\hbox{the slope } = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{2-(-5)}{4-0}=\frac{2+5}{4}=\frac{7}{4}

The slope is 7/4.

To find the slope of a line between two points, you compute (y∨2 - y∨1) and divide it by (x∨2 -x∨1)

Here, that looks like (2 - (-5))/ (4 -0), which becomes, 7/4, which is your slope!

If x^2 = 16(5), then x =
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

4\sqrt{5} or 8.944

Step-by-step explanation:

x^{2} = 16(5)

Simplify

x^{2} =80

Square root both sides to get x by itself

\sqrt{x^{2} } =\sqrt{80}

4\sqrt{5} or 8.944

What is the equation for a circle with a center at (-2,-4) that passes through the point (3,8)?
Margarita [4]
Check the picture below.

so, the center of the circle is the midpoint of that diametrical segment, and half that length is the radius.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points }
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ -2 &,& -4~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ 3 &,& 8~)
\end{array}\qquad
%   coordinates of midpoint 
\left(\cfrac{ x_2 +  x_1}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{ y_2 +  y_1}{2} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \cfrac{3-2}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{8-4}{2} \right)\implies \left( \frac{1}{2}~,~2 \right)\impliedby center

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ -2 &,& -4~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ 3 &,& 8~)
\end{array}~~~ 
%  distance value
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{[3-(-2)]^2+[8-(-4)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(3+2)^2+(8+4)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{25+144}\implies d=\sqrt{169}\implies d=13\qquad\qquad \qquad  \stackrel{radius}{\frac{13}{2}}

\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ 
(x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2
\qquad 
center~~(\stackrel{\frac{1}{2}}{ h},\stackrel{2}{ k})\qquad \qquad 
radius=\stackrel{\frac{13}{2}}{ r}
\\\\\\
\left( x-\frac{1}{2} \right)^2+(y-2)^2=\left( \frac{13}{2} \right)^2\implies \left( x-\frac{1}{2} \right)^2+(y-2)^2=\frac{169}{4}

An item is priced at $13.42. If the sales tax is 4%, what does the item cost including sales tax? If necessary, round to the nea
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Total cost = $13.96

Step-by-step explanation:

The total to be paid for the item is the addition of its price plus the taxes. That is:

Total\,\,cost=13.42+0.04\,*\,13.42\\Total\,\,cost=13.42+0.5368\\Total\,\,cost==13.9568

Which can be rounded to $13.96
