Answer:

x + 5y = 7 or y = -⅕x + 1⅖

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the <em>rate of change</em> [<em>slope</em>]:

-y₁ + y₂\-x₁ + x₂ = m

- \frac{2 + 1}{3 + 2} =  -\frac{1}{5}

Then use the Point-Slope Formula since we are given points. Now, according to this formula, all negative symbols give the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so be EXTREMELY careful inserting the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT signs. It does not matter which one you choose:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 1 = -⅕(x - 2)

y - 1 = -⅕x + ⅖

+ 1 + 1

_______________

y = -⅕x + 1⅖ >> Line in <em>Slope-Intercept Form</em>

Since this exercise wants it in <em>Standard Form</em>:

y = -⅕x + 1⅖

+⅕x +⅕x

___________

⅕x + y = 1⅖ [We do not want fractions in our Standard Equations, so multiply by the denominator to get rid of it.]

5[⅕x + y = 1⅖]

x + 5y = 7 >> Line in <em>Standard Form</em>

__________________________________________________________

y - 2 = -⅕(x + 3)

y - 2 = -⅕x - ⅗

+ 2 + 2

______________

y = -⅕x + 1⅖ >> Line in <em>Slope-Intercept</em><em> </em><em>Form</em>

y = -⅕x + 1⅖

+⅕x +⅕x

___________

⅕x + y = 1⅖ [We do not want fractions in our Standard Equations, so multiply by the denominator to get rid of it.]

5[⅕x + y = 1⅖]

x + 5y = 7 >> Line in <em>Standard Form</em>

** You see? I told you that it would not matter which ordered pair you choose because you will always get the exact same result!!!

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Find the slope of a line that is PRRPENDICULAR to the line that goes between (3,-8) and (5,2).
LiRa [457]

Answer:

-1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the line = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(2-(-8)/(5-3)

10/2 = 5

Perpendicular line = the slope is opposite of the reciprocal

What is the measure of 0 ?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Option A. 4 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the circumference of the circle

The circumference is equal to

C=2\pi r

we have

r=5\ cm

substitute

C=2\pi (5)

C=10\pi\ cm

step 2

Find the measure of angle \theta

we know that

The circumference of the circle subtends a central angle of 2π radians

so

using proportion

Find out the central angle by an arc length of 20 cm

\frac{10\pi}{2\pi}=\frac{20}{x}\\\\x=2\pi (20)/10\pi\\\\x=4\ radians
