Answer:

We conclude that the slope between (s, t) and (u, v):

slope = [v - t] / [u - s]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) using the formula

slope = [y₂ - y₁] / [x₂ - x₁]

In our case, the two points are

(x₁, y₁) = (s, t)

(x₂, y₂) = (u, v)

Thus, the slope between (s, t) and (u, v)

slope = [v - t] / [u - s]

Therefore, we conclude that the slope between (s, t) and (u, v):

slope = [v - t] / [u - s]

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule is if 2 chords intersect inside a circle, then the measure of the angle formed is one half the um of the measure of the arcs intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle. In other words, angle TSU = 1/2(arc TU + arc MV):

angle TSU = 1/2(90 + 80) and

angle TSU = 1/2(170) and

angle TSU = 85

Answer:

The equation for the following graph:

$y = -\frac{1}{5}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

- You first need to find the slope by using the slope formula:

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$

(where $(x_{1},y_{1})$ is the first point and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ is the second point)

-Use the given points $(0,0)$ and $(10, -2)$ from the graph for the formula:

$m = \frac{-2 - 0}{10 - 0}$

Then, you solve:

$m = \frac{-2 - 0}{10 - 0}$

$m = -\frac{1}{5}$

After you have found the slope, use the slope $-\frac{1}{5}$ and the first point $(0,0)$ for the point-slope formula:

$y - y_{1} = m ( x - x_{1})$

(where $m$ is the slope and $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ is the first point)

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5} ( x - 0)$

Then, you solve:

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5} ( x - 0)$

$y - 0 = -\frac{1}{5}x - 0$

$y - 0 + 0 = -\frac{1}{5} - 0 + 0$

$y = -\frac{1}{5}x$

So, the equation for the following graph is $y = -\frac{1}{5}x$ .
