Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is given by

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

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

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

= -4/2

-2

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{3-7}{1-(-1)} =\frac{-4}{2} =-\frac{4}{2} =-2$

The slope of the line should be -2.

The rectangular prism is made of 8 cubes and has and edge length of 1/2 in, what is the volume

sashaice [31]

Hello!

To find the volume of the prism you first have to find the volume of a cube

To do this you use the equation

$V = a^{3}$

V is volume
a is side length

Put in the values you know

$V = \frac{1}{2}^{3}$

Solve

V = 0.125

Now to find the volume of the prism you multiply the volume of one cube by the amount of cubes in the prism

0.125 * 8 = 1

The answer is 1 cubic inch

Hope this helps!

The endpoint of a diameter of a circle are (-4,2) and (12,10). What is the y-coordinate for the center of the circle

gavmur [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the diameter. The midpoint can be found by averaging the coordinates of the end points:

((-4, 2) +(12, 10))/2 = ((-4+12)/2, (2+10)/2) = (4, 6)

The y-coordinate of the center is 6.

How to classify a system and give the number of solutions

Leokris [45]

1) consistent system. at least one solution.

2) inconsistent system. no solutions (the lines are parallel)

3) dependent system. equations have same slope and y-intercept(same line)independent system.

4) equations have different slopes(2 intersecting lines)
