Given:
Triangle Point coordinates or vertices:
A(16,0)
B(9,2)
C(2,0)
Required:
Side with slope -2/7
Solution:
To know which side has the slope required, we need to calculate the slope of each paired point by the two-point slope formula:
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
We first try points A and B.
m1 = (2-0)/(9-16)
m1 = -2/7
Thus, the side with the slope -2/7 is side AB.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 8 = 2x - 10
2x - 8 = -10
2x = -2
x = -1
y = 4(-1) - 8 = -4 -8 = -12
(-1, -12)
Based on the ratio of boys/girls We can infer that the only possibility for Ellen's math class would be answer B. 14/21
