Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Fid the difference in the y-coordinates of any two points. This is the rise.

Then find the difference in the corresponding x-coordinates of the same points. This is the run.

slope = rise/run

Let's use x = 12, x = 15, and y = -4, y = 14.

rise = -4 - 14 = -18

run = 12 - 15 = -3

slope = rise/run = -18/(-3) = 6

Answer: slope = 6

What is the value of X 1/2(9-2x)=X+1

Sladkaya [172]

First distribute 1/2 into (9-2x) which would give you:
4.5-1x= x+1
then you add 1x to each side and you will get:
4.5=2x+1
then you subtract 1 from each side and you will get:
3.5=2x
finally divide 3.5 by 2 and you will get:
x = 1.75

Answer:

7/ Ans;

$\frac{x + 2}{ x + 4} \div \frac{ {x }^{2} - 2x - 8}{ {x}^{2} + 2x - 8} \\ \\ \\ \frac{x + 2}{x + 4} \times \frac{ {x}^{2} + 2x - 8 }{ {x}^{2} - 2x - 8} \\ \\ \\ \frac{x + 2}{x + 4} \times \frac{(x - 2)(x + 4)}{(x - 4)(x + 2)} \\ \\ \\ =1 \times \frac{x - 2}{x - 4} \\ \\ \\ = \frac{x - 2}{x - 4}$

9/Ans;

$\frac{ {x}^{2} - 9}{ {x}^{2} - 6x + 9} \div \frac{x + 4}{x - 3} \\ \\ \frac{ {x}^{2} - 9 }{ {x}^{2} - 6x + 9} \times \frac{x - 3}{x + 4} \\ \\ \\ \frac{(x + 3)(x - 3)}{(x - 3)(x - 3)} \times \frac{x - 3}{x + 4} \\ \\ \\ = \frac{(x + 3)}{1} \times \frac{1}{(x + 4)} \\ \\ \\ = \frac{x + 3}{x + 4}$

In the two questions, we first replace the division with multiplication with flipping the fraction after the division sign, secondly we analyze any equation that needs analysis to simplify it, thirdly, to simplify the fraction by deleting the numerator and the similar denominator .
