Answer:
Slope, sometimes referred to as gradient in mathematics, is a number that measures the steepness and direction of a line, or a section of a line connecting two points, and is usually denoted by m. Generally, a line's steepness is measured by the absolute value of its slope, m. The larger the value is, the steeper the line. Given m, it is possible to determine the direction of the line that m describes based on its sign and value:
A line is increasing, and goes upwards from left to right when m > 0
A line is decreasing, and goes downwards from left to right when m < 0
A line has a constant slope, and is horizontal when m = 0
A vertical line has an undefined slope, since it would result in a fraction with 0 as the denominator. Refer to the equation provided below.
Slope is essentially change in height over change in horizontal distance, and is often referred to as "rise over run." It has applications in gradients in geography as well as civil engineering, such as the building of roads. In the case of a road the "rise" is the change in altitude, while the "run" is the difference in distance between two fixed points, as long as the distance for the measurement is not large enough that the earth's curvature should be considered as a factor. The slope is represented mathematically as:
m =
y2 - y1
x2 - x1
Answer:
a. linear pair 5 & 6
b. pair of vertical angles 5 & 2
c. pair of angles that are congruent 3 & 8
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear pair of angles is formed when two lines intersect.
Vertical angles are a pair of non-adjacent angles formed by the intersection of two straight lines. In simple words, vertical angles are located across from one another in the corners of the "X" formed by two straight lines.
If two angles are complements of the same angle (or congruent angles), then the two angles are congruent. All right angles are congruent.

Draw a tape diagram to show how much cake each of the five children received.
Answer:
See attachment
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Tape diagram to represent the scenario
Because one child is not hungry, the number of children to share the cake becomes 6.
So, first we calculate the share of each child.

Answer:
y - 13 = 5(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Given y = 5x - 3 in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5, then
m = 5 and (a, b) = (- 2, 13)
y - 13 = 5(x - (- 2)), that is
y - 13 = 5(x + 2) ← in point- slope form
