What is the slope of the line through (2,5) and (-1,2)?

Mathematics

Luden [163]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The slope of the line is m = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is essentially change in height over change in horizontal distance, and is often referred to as "rise over run." It has applications in gradients in geography as well as civil engineering, such as the building of roads. In the case of a road the "rise" is the change in altitude, while the "run" is the difference in distance between two fixed points, as long as the distance for the measurement is not large enough that the earth's curvature should be considered as a factor. The slope is represented mathematically as:

m = y2-y1 / x2-x1

m = 2 - 5 / -1 - 2

m = -3 / -3

m = 1

X1 is 2

Y1 is 5

X2 is -1

Y2 is 2

Imaginá que tenés 125 dados cúbicos del mismo tamaño ¿Cuantos dados de altura tiene el cubo de mayor tamaño que podés armar apil
kumpel [21]

Answer:

(i) Debemos apilar 5 dados para construir el cubo de mayor tamaño.

(ii) Se necesita 121 dados cuadrados para formar el cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de dados posibles, quedando 4 dados sobrantes.

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Sabemos por la Geometría Euclídea del Espacio que un cubo es un sólido regular con 6 caras cuadradas y longitudes iguales. Cada dado tiene un volumen de 1 dado cúbico y 125 dados dan un volumen total de 125 dados cúbicos.

El volumen de un cubo está dado por la siguiente fórmula:

V = L^{3}

Donde:

L - Longitud de la arista, medida en dados.

V - Volumen del cubo, medido en dados cúbicos.

Ahora, necesitamos despejar la longitud de la arista para calcular la altura máxima posible:

L = \sqrt[3]{V}

Dado que V = 125\,dados^{3}, encontramos que la altura del cubo de mayor tamaño sería:

L =\sqrt[3]{125\,dados^{3}}

L = 5\,dados

Debemos apilar 5 dados para construir el cubo de mayor tamaño.

(ii) El área cuadrada formada por cubos está determinada por la siguiente fórmula:

A = L^{2}

Donde:

L - Longitud de arista, medida en dados.

A - Área, medida en dados cuadrados.

Puesto que la longitud de arista se basa en un conjunto discreto, esto es, el número de dados disponibles, debemos encontrar el valor máximo de L tal que no supere 125 y de un área entera. Es decir:

L \leq 125\,dados

Si cada cubo tiene un área de 1 dado cuadrado, entonces un cuadrado conformado por 125 dados tiene un área total de 125 dados cuadrados. Entonces:

L^{2}< 125\,dados^{2}

Esto nos lleva a decir que:

L < 11.180\,dados

Entonces, la longitud máxima del cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de cubos posible es de 11 dados. El número total requerido de cubos es el cuadrado de esa cifra, es decir:

n = (11\,dados)^{2}

n = 121\,dados

Se necesita 121 dados cuadrados para formar el cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de dados posibles, quedando 4 dados sobrantes.

What shape is the base? What is the area of the<br> base (B)?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

rectangular; 32 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is rectangular, because 1 set of sides is longer than the other.

To find the area of the base, multiply 4 by 8 to get 32 in².

The perimeter of a rectangle is 96 yards and the length is 14 yards more than the width what are the dimensions of the rectangle
____ [38]

Answer:

17 yards and 31 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since length is 14 more than width, lets call width: w and length: w+14

So perimeter is 96 so: 2w+2(w+14)=96

2w+2w+28=96 so 4w+28=96

4w=68 and finally w=17

So 17 yards and 31 yards.
