Slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b
m=slope
we have the equation:
y=-7x

Therefore the slope will be "-7".

Answer: the slope of this line is -7.

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to 4x-2y=3 and is passing through the point (2,1)
Temka [501]

Answer:

y= 2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rewrite the given equation into the form of y=mx+c, so that we can find the gradient of the line. In this form, m (coefficient of x) is the gradient.

4x -2y= 3

2y= 4x -3

<em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>throughout</em><em>:</em>

y = 2x - 1 \frac{1}{2}

Thus the gradient is 2.

Parallel lines have the same gradient thus the line would also have a gradient of 2.

Substitute m=2 into the equation:

y= 2x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates.

When x=2, y=1,

1= 2(2) +c

1= 4 +c

c= 1 -4

c= -3

Thus, the equation of the line is y= 2x -3.

The perimeter of triangle RXA is 24. If RX = 4 and RA = 11, find XP and PA
Tju [1.3M]
8 is the answer because when you add 11+4 you get 16 and then you would subtract that from 24 which would give you 8. Idk where you got "PA" ?

State whether the following statements are true or false, and explain your reasoning.
Masja [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A square is a rectangle.   True

Reason: Property of Rectangle: (i) Opposite sides are equal and parallel. (ii) Each angle is 90 (iii) Diagonals are equal and bisect each other.

A square hold all these properties. A square is  a rectangle.

b) A polygon with 21 sides has 432 possible diagonals. False

Reason: Number of diagonals of a polygon = \frac{n(n-3)}{2}

n --> number of sides of a polygon.

= \frac{21*18}{2} = 189 diagonals

c) All three angles in an Isosceles triangle are equal. False

Reason: In an isosceles triangle, two angles are equal.

If three angles are equal, then that is an equilateral triangle.

d) The measures of the exterior angles of a nonagon, a nine-sided figure, have a sum of 360°. True.

Reason: The sum of measures of the exterior angles  of any polygon is 360

The math club needs to raise more than $552. $.50 for a trip to state competition. The club has raise 12% of the funds which is
ratelena [41]
Each of the members must raise at least $69.46.

To start they need to raise $552.50. However, they have already raised 12% of it. They only need to raise 88% of it.

552.50 x 0.88 = 486.2

Divide the remaining amount by 7 to determine how much each individual must raise.

486.2 / 7 = 69.46
