Find the slope of the line that passes through (5,3) and (4,2).

Mathematics

GREYUIT [131]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The slope is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = (2-3)/(4-5) = (-1)/(-1) = 1

Therefore, the slope of the line that passes through (5,3) and (4,2) is 1

Initially a ship and a submarine are stationary at sea level, positioned 1.78km apart. The submarine then manoeuvres to position
poizon [28]
I’m assuming ‘dives further’ means to go directly down

the angle of elevation of the ship from the submarine is equal to the angle of depression of the submarine from the ship, if we assume the sea level is perpendicular to ‘directly down’.

let both of these angles to be = $ when the submarine is at A and ¥ when the submarine is at B (excuse the lack of easily accessible variables as keys)

then this become a simple trig problem:

A)

Let O be the position of of the ship, and C be the original position of the submarine.

therefore, not considering direction

|OC| = 1.78km = 1780m

|CA| = 45m

these are the adjacent and opposite sides of a right angled triangle.

But tan($) = opp/adj = |CA|/|OC| = 45/1780

therefore $ = arctan(45/1780) which is roughly 1.45 degrees,

B)

similarly, noting that |CB| = |CA| + |AB| = 45 + 62 = 107m


tan(¥) = 107/1780

¥ = arctan(107/1780) which is roughly 3.44 degrees

Maths question on algebraic equations ​= due in 10 minutes
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

108 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 16 = 3x - 12  (corresponding angles; AB parallel to CD).

16 + 12 = 3x - 2x

x = 28.

So the angle marked 3x - 12 = 3(28) - 12

= 72 degrees.

Angle y is adjacent to the angle so

y = 180 - 72

= 108 degrees.

a farmers land is separated into sections of size 2 1/7 acres. Suppose there are 2 2/3 such sections. how many acres of land doe
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

  5 5/7 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

The product is ...

  (2 1/7 acres/section)(2 2/3 sections) = (15/7)(8/3) acres = 40/7 acres

  = 5 5/7 acres

The farmer owns 5 5/7 acres of land.

What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first?
dusya [7]

Answer: 11x-8y=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you need to remember:

1) The mulitplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-

2) By definition, like terms contain the same variables with the same exponent.

Then knowing this, and given the equations:

8x - 4y = -4 and -3x+ 4y = 5

You must subtract the like terms, which means that you must subtract the numerical coefficients of each term.

Then, you get the result is:

8x - 4y = -4\\-3x+ 4y = 5\\...............................................\\8x-(-3x)-4y-4y=-4-5\\8x+3x-8y=-9\\11x-8y=-9
