Answer:

0 = x - 4y - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving from (-5, -3) to (3, -1), we see that x (the run) increases by 8 and y (the rise) incrases by 2. Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = rise / run = 2/8, or 1/4.

Use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line first:

y = mx + b becomes -1 = (1/4)(3) + b, or (after multiplying all three terms

by 4) -4 = 3 + 4b. Then 4b = -7, and b = -7/4.

Then the desired equation is y = (1/4)x - 7/4, or

4y = x - 7, or

0 = x - 4y - 7. This is the desired equation in standard form.

Answer:

y = 1/4x - 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

standard form is y = mx + b

to get m you need to calculate the slope between the given points

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

m = (-1 - (-3))/(3 - (-5)) = 2/8 = 1/4

now you need to find the constant b by plugging in one of your points

y = 1/4x + b

-1 = 1/4(3) + b

b = -1 - (3/4)

b = -7/4 or -1.75

What are the partial products that result from multiplying 15x32?

pashok25 [27]

The answer to this question would be: 300; 20; 150; 10

When you multiply 15 x 32, you can divide both numbers into this:
15= 10 + 5
32= 30 +2

Then the multiplication becomes (10+5) * (30+2) which will result in 4 partial product like this:
10*30= 300
10* 2= 20
5* 30= 150
5* 2= 10

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are here given a modulus expression and we need to find out the value when m = -5 and n = 3 .

Modulus :- It always gives positive value . For example ,

$\rm\implies |-a| = a$

$\rm\implies |a| = a$

The given modulus expression is :-

$\rm\implies |m^2+ n^2|$

As the number inside the modulus operator are already squared therefore they will always give positive value for real numbers . Here we can omit the modulus .

$\rm\implies m^2 + n^2$
