First we need to find the slope.

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

slope = (-5 - 2) / (5 - -3)

slope = (-7) / (5 + 3)

slope = -7/8

.

Point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = (-7/8)(x - -3)

y - 2 = (-7/8)(x + 3)

y - 2 = (-7/8)x - 21/8

y = (-7/8)x - 21/8 + 2

y = (-7/8)x - 21/8 + 16/8

y = (-7/8)x - 5/8

45% of a number is 180. Find the number
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

The term "of" can be translated to multiplication in problems like this.

So it's essentially saying multiply 45% to 180 and give me the result.

45% can be written as 45/100 in fractions (45 percent, where cent means 100 and per means division). 45/100 can be written as 0.45 in decimal form.

Now the problem reads 0.45 X 180. Using a calculator, we can solve this and the result comes out to be 81

U=15+2as find the value of S​
Vinvika [58]

Start with

u=15+2as

Subtract 15 from both sides:

u-15=2as

Divide both sides by 2a:

\dfrac{u-15}{2a}=s

What is the distance from (6, -8) to the origin?
Flauer [41]
You have to use Pythagoras' theorem for this!

The triangle formed is 6 units across, and 8 units down, which means we can form an equation like this:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + 8^2 = c^2
36 + 64 = c^2
100 = c^2
c = 10.

The answer is 10 :)
