Answer:
B) -2
Step-by-step explanation:
I got the slope by using two points on the line (0,7) and (4,-1)
Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1
(7--1)/(0-4)
=
8/-4
I then simplified 8/-4 to -2
You could also solve by finding the rise over run for two points on the line.
The rise is 2 and the run is -1, making it 2/-1 or -2
Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24
Given: lines l and m are parallel, and line t is a transversal.
angle pair result/justification
1 and 2 are equal (vertical angles)
6 and 8 are equal (corresponding angles)
1 and 4 are equal (alternate exterior angles)
4 and 8 are supplementary angles (i.e. add up to 180 degrees, a straight angle)
Note:
alternate angles are on opposite sides of the transversal, and each attached to a different (parallel) line.
If they are both enclosed by the parallel lines, they are alternate interior angles (examples: angles 2 and 3, 6 and 7)
If they are both outside of the two parallel lines, they are alternate exterior angles (examples: angles 1 and 4, 5 and 8)
The slope is 4/3.
rise/run
rise = 4
run = 3
I got 18 for this one............
