What is the slope of the line

Mathematics
1 answer:
cupoosta [38]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

I believe the slope would be -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The line goes <u>down 2</u> boxes and <u>over 1</u> box before it intersects with another point.  Knowing slope = \frac{rise}{run}, we know that slope = \frac{-2}{1} which is equal to -2.

PLS HELP:( !! What is an equation of the line
pychu [463]

Answer:

y =  \frac{3}{2} x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is written in the form of y=mx+c (where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept).

Thus, gradient of given equation= -⅔

The products of the gradient of perpendicular lines is -1.

(Gradient of line)(-⅔)= -1

Gradient of line

=  - 1  \div ( -  \frac{2}{3} ) \\  =  \frac{3}{2}

Hence, m= \frac{3}{2}.

Subst. m= \frac{3}{2}into the equation:

y =  \frac{3}{2} x + c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates into the equation:

When x= -4, y= 2,

2 =  \frac{3}{2} ( - 4) + c \\ 2 =  - 6 + c \\ c = 2 + 6 \\ c = 8

Thus, the equation of the line is y =  \frac{3}{2} x + 8.

Trapezia ABCD and PQRS are similar.<br> Find the area shaded in green.
avanturin [10]

The area shaded in green is 864 cm²

<h3>Similar figures</h3>

Similar figures, corresponding angles are congruent and the sides are ratio of each other. Therefore,

AB / PQ = CD / RS

30 / 10 = 24 / RS

30RS = 240

RS = 240 / 30

RS = 8 cm

let find the height of trapezium PQRS.

AB / PQ  = 36 / h

30 / 10 = 36 / h

30h = 360

h = 360 / 30

h = 12 cm

Therefore,

area of the green portion = area of ABCD - area of PQRS

<h3>Area of a trapezium</h3>
  • area = 1 / 2(a + b)h

Therefore,

area of ABCD = 1 / 2(24 + 30)36 =  1 / 2 (54)36 = 1944 / 2 = 972 cm²

area of PQRS = 1 / 2(10 + 8)12 = 1 / 2(18)12 = 216 / 2 = 108 cm²

Area of the green portion = 972 - 108 = 864 cm²

Show all work:
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

m=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

m - 7 = -10

Ok so,

in order to get m by itself you just need to do the opposite of -7 which is +7 so you have to add 7 to both sides. On the left, both of the 7's cancel out and on the right -10 + 7 = -3. So, now it should look like this.

m=-3

To check you just need to plug in -3 into the question

Hope this helps! Have a good day

What is the answer to the problem 2/3x-40=5/6(x+36)
miss Akunina [59]

2/3x-40=5/6(x+36)

multiply each side by 6 to get rid of the fraction

6* 2/3x- 6*40=6*5/6(x+36)

4x -240 = 5(x+36)

distribute

4x-240 = 5x +180

subtract 4x from each side

-240 = x +180

subtract 180 from each side

-420 =x
