How can you use the point-slope form of a line when only given two points?

Mathematics
1 answer:
pshichka [43]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Point -slope form is:</u>

  • y - y1 = m(x - x1)

By having one set of coordinates and knowing the value of the slope (m in the equation) you can use the form.

<u>How to find the slope?</u>

Here you need 2 points: Point 1 with coordinates x1, y1 and point 2 with the coordinates x2, y2

<u>Use the formula:</u>

  • m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

<u>Example:</u>

  • m = -5, and one of the points has coordinates (9, 2) then point-slope form is:
  • y - 2 = -5(x - 9)

Round 0.8888 to 1 significant figure
Paladinen [302]
Since the numbers 0-4 round down and the numbers 5-9 round up, you would round up in this case so round the tenth spot up to get one. One is the significant number. Hope I helped you out.

For the problem 135 divided by 5 draw two different ways to break apart the array. Use the distributive property to write produc
Rashid [163]

The distributive property will show you how you can state the arrays.

1) Make 135 = 100 + 35

⇒ 135 ÷ 5 = (100 + 35 ) ÷ 5

Distributive property → 100 ÷ 5 + 35 ÷ 5 =

⇒ 20 + 7 = 27

This means that 27 is the result of the division 135 ÷ 35

Then you can make one array with 20 rows of 5 tiles each, and 7 rows of 5 tiles each.

2) For the second array you can make 135 = 50 + 50 + 30 + 5

⇒ 135 ÷ 5 = (50 + 50 + 30 + 5) ÷ 5

Distributive property → 50 ÷ 5 + 50 ÷ 5 + 30 ÷ 5 + 5 ÷ 5

⇒ 10 + 10 + 6 + 1 = 27

Which also shows that 27 is the result of 135 ÷ 5

Therefore, you can make an array with 10 rows plus 10 rows, plus 6 rows, plus 1 row, each of 5 tiles.

How does 1-3/8 = 5/8?
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 is also known as 8/8, because anything that has all the parts to it is a whole.

Meaning, we can change this equation into 8/8-3/8, which makes it much easier.

With that, if you subtract the numerators, 8-3,  you get 5. In other words, you are subtracting three "pieces" from the eight "pieces". You end up with 5 of the original 8 "pieces", or 5/8.
