Answer:

5x - 2y - 23 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Line is passing through the points $(3,\:-4)= (x_1, \:y_1) \: \&\: (5,\: 1)= (x_2,\:y_2)$

Equation of line in two point form is given as:

$\frac{y -y_1 }{y_1 -y_2 } = \frac{x -x_1 }{x_1 -x_2 } \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{y -( - 4) }{ - 4 -1} = \frac{x -3 }{3 -5 } \\ \\ \therefore \:\frac{y + 4 }{ - 5} = \frac{x -3 }{ - 2 } \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{y + 4 }{ 5} = \frac{x -3 }{ 2 } \\ \\ \therefore \: 2(y + 4) = 5(x - 3) \\ \therefore \: 2y + 8 = 5x - 15 \\ \therefore \: 5x - 15 - 2y - 8 = 0 \\ \red{ \boxed{ \bold{\therefore \: 5x - 2y - 23 = 0}}} \\ is \: the \: required \: equation \: of \: line \: in \: \\ standard \: form.$

Which of the following conjectures is false?<br>Please give a counterexample!<br>Thank youuu

MakcuM [25]

Which of the following conjectures is false?

Solution: The false conjecture is:

J. The sum of two odd numbers is odd

Explanation:

F. The product of two even numbers is even.

For example: Let us take two even numbers 4 and 6.

The product of two even numbers is:

$4 \times 6 = 24$

Therefore, the product is also even number. Hence the conjecture is true.

G. The sum of two even numbers is even.

For example: Let us take two even numbers 4 and 6.

The sum of two even numbers is:

$4+6 = 10$

Therefore, the sum is also even number. Hence the conjecture is true.

H. The product of two odd numbers is odd.

For example: Let us take two odd numbers 3 and 5.

The product of two odd numbers is:

$3\times5 = 15$

Therefore, the product is also odd number. Hence the conjecture is true.

J. The sum of two odd numbers is odd.

For example: Let us take two odd numbers 3 and 5.

The sum of two odd numbers is:

$3+5= 8$

Therefore, the sum is not an odd number. Hence the conjecture is false.

I can't see the table, but you find the total amount that the entire fifth grade made and divide it by six. I would round it to the nearest hundredth.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of a triangle is expressed as 1/2 * base * height. If uma is planning to decorate a blanket with a triangular shape that has a base of 5 centimetres and a height of 7 centimetres, area of the blanket will be expressed as shown;

Area of the blanget = 1/2 * 7 * 5

Area of a blanket = 35/2 = 17.5cm²

If she plans to cut out 68 triangles with these dimensions, the total area will be total number of triangles * area of one triangle i.e 68 * 17.5 = 1,190cm²
