The number of degrees between 0 and -5 C

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! It is not 1-5 is is the absolute value of -5. This would be 5 which is the number of degrees between 0 and -5.

A line passes through points (2,5) and (5, 14). What is the slope of this line?

topjm [15]

We know that:

Slope of a line = change in y coordinate / change in x coordinate

We are given:

First point = (2,5)

Second point = (5, 14)

Calculating the change in y coordinate:

change in y (also represented by Δy) = second y - first y

Δy = 14 - 5

Δy = 9

Calculating the change in x coordinate:

Δx = second x - first x

Δx = 5 - 2

Δx = 3

Slope of the line:

Slope = (Δy) / (Δx)

Slope = 9 / 3 [replacing the values]

Slope = 3

Find the coordinates of the vertex of the following parabola algebraically. Write your answer as an (x,y)(x,y) point.

Serga [27]

Answer:

(8,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parabola is

$y = - 3 {x}^{2} + 48x - 195$

We factor -3 from the first two terms to get:

$y = - 3( {x}^{2} - 16x) - 195$

Add and subtract the square of half the coefficient of x

$y = - 3( {x}^{2} - 16x + 64) + 3 \times 64- 195$

$y = - 3 {(x - 8)}^{2} + 192 - 195$

We simplify to get:

$y = - 3 {(x - 8)}^{2} - 3$

We compare this to y=a(x-h)²+k,

The vertex is (h,k)=(8,-3)
