Slope formula - (y² - y¹) / (x² - x¹)

(-2, -3) (6,2)

x¹ = -2

x² = 6

y¹ = -3

y² = 2

2 - - 3 = 5

6 - - 2 = 8

2 negatives make a positive

Answer: B. 5/8

Hope this Helps!!

Write in slope-intercept form an equation of the line that passes through the points (−1,12) and (1,2).

zzz [600]

Answer:

$y=-5x+7$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have

the points (−1,12) and (1,2)

substitute

$m=\frac{2-12}{1+1}$

$m=\frac{-10}{2}$

$m=-5$

step 2

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equl to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

$m=-5$

$point\ (1,2)$

substitute in the linear equation and solve for b

$2=-5(1)+b$

$b=2+5=7$

therefore

$y=-5x+7$

State the leading coefficient of the polynomial:<br> f(x) = 6x^5 + 9x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4x -6

dlinn [17]

Answer:

The leading coefficient of the polynomial is 5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 6x^5 + 9x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4x -6

In this polynomial , the highest exponential is the leading coefficient .

So there are 5 coefficients ,

5 , 4 , 3 , 2 , and x

so above , the highest one is 5 .

Solve for X......:) <3

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

x = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles in a triangle equal 180 degrees. So our equation will be:

x + 48 + (x - 44) = 180

x + 48 + x - 44 = 180

2x + 48 - 44 = 180

2x + 4 = 180

2x = 176

x = 88

Hope this helps!
