Answer:

y-3 = -7/8(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (3 - -4)/(-1 -7)

     = (3+4) / (-1-7)

      = 7/ -8

  = -7/8

The point slope form of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 3 = -7/8( x - -1)

y-3 = -7/8(x+1)

First, lets find the slope.

Slope Formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

= 3-(-4)/-1-7

= 7/-8

= -7/8

Point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

We can use one point to substitute y1 and x1 with. We can also substitute m with the slope. Lets use the point (7,-4) and the slope of -7/8 to solve.

y - (-4) = -7/8(x - 7)

y + 4 = -7/8(x - 7)

Best of Luck!

Answer:

43.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Set it up like 3x-5+x+1=180. Combine the variables and the numbers without a letter next to it. 4x+6=180. Subtract 6 from 180. Divide that number by 4.

28°

a triangle = 180°
180°-140°= 40°
180°-68°= 112°
180°-112°-40°= 28°

Step by step directions Square root for 480
m_a_m_a [10]
<span>  <span>first off your answer is 21.90 and the step by step i  wrote it for you:) Finding the square root of a number is the inverse operation of squaring that number. Remember, the square of a number is that number times itself. </span> The perfect squares are the squares of the whole numbers. The square root of a number, n, written below is the number that gives n when multiplied by itself.   </span>                                                                                                                                                                          <span>Many mathematical operations have an inverse, or opposite, operation. Subtraction is the opposite of addition, division is the inverse of multiplication, and so on. Squaring, which we learned about in a previous lesson (exponents), has an inverse too, called "finding the square root." Remember, the square of a number is that number times itself. The perfect squares are the squares of the whole numbers: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100 … </span> The square root of a number, n, written <span> is the number that gives n when multiplied by itself. For example,</span> <span>because 10 x 10 = 100</span> Examples Here are the square roots of all the perfect squares from 1 to 100. Finding square roots of of numbers that aren't perfect squares without a calculator 1. Estimate - first, get as close as you can by finding two perfect square roots your number is between. 2. Divide - divide your number by one of those square roots.
3. Average - take the average of the result of step 2 and the root. <span>4. Use the result of step 3 to repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have a number that is accurate enough for you.
</span> Example: Calculate the square root of 10 () to 2 decimal places. <span>1. Find the two perfect square numbers it lies between.
</span> <span><span>Solution:
</span><span>32 = 9 and 42 = 16, so lies between 3 and 4.</span></span> <span>2. Divide 10 by 3. 10/3 = 3.33 (you can round off your answer)</span> <span>3. Average 3.33 and 3. (3.33 + 3)/2 = 3.1667</span> <span>Repeat step 2: 10/3.1667 = 3.1579</span><span>Repeat step 3: Average 3.1579 and 3.1667. (3.1579 + 3.1667)/2 = 3.1623</span> Try the answer --> Is 3.1623 squared equal to 10? 3.1623 x 3.1623 = 10.0001 If this is accurate enough for you, you can stop! Otherwise, you can repeat steps 2 and 3. <span>Note: There are a number of ways to calculate square roots without a calculator. This is only one of them.</span>         <span><span>
