The points , (−15,1) and , (−7,r) lie on a line with slope 5/4. Find the missing coordinate r. Click image to enlarge

Nadya [2.5K]

The missing coordinate r is 11.

Solution:

Given points are (–15, 1) and (–7, r).

$x_{1}=-15, x_{2}=-7, y_{1}=1 \text { and } y_{2}=7$

Slope (m) = $\frac{5}{4}$

To find the missing coordinate r:

Slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Substitute the given values in the formula.

$$\frac{5}{4}=\frac{r-1}{-7-(-15)}$

$$\frac{5}{4}=\frac{r-1}{-7+15}$

$$\frac{5}{4}=\frac{r-1}{8}$

Do cross multiplication.

$8 \times 5=4(r-1)$

40 = 4r – 4

Add 4 on both side of the equation.

44 = 4r

Divide by 4 on both side of the equation.

11 = r

⇒ r = 11

Hence the missing coordinate r is 11.

Simplify -|-7 + 4|. -11 -3 3 11

myrzilka [38]

|a| = -a for a < 0

|a| = a for a ≥ 0

examples:

|-1| = -(-1) = 1; |-4| = -(-4) = 4; |-0.1| = 0.1; |-109| = 109

|7| = 7; |19| = 19; |0| = 0

- |-7 + 4| = - |-3| = - (3) = -3

Answer: -|-7 + 4| = -3
