Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-5, -7)

Point (-4, 1)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

Substitute in points [SF]: $\displaystyle m=\frac{1+7}{-4+5}$
[Fraction] Add: $\displaystyle m=\frac{8}{1}$
[Fraction] Divide: $\displaystyle m=8$

Answer:

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_ 1 }{x_2 - x_1 } = \frac{1 - ( - 7)}{ - 4 - ( - 5)} = \frac{1 + 7}{ - 4 + 5} = \frac{8}{1} =8\\$

8 is the slope of a line that goes through points (-5, -7) and (-4, 1)

Name the alternate interior angle with angle 5.

<h3>Answer: B) angle 4</h3>

==================================

Explanation:

We can think of lines L and M as sort of train tracks. Inside the train tracks we have the interior angles of: 3, 4, 5, 6

Angles 3 and 6 are one pair of alternate interior angles. They are on alternate sides of the transversal line N.

The other pair of alternate interior angles are 4 and 5

Alternate interior angles are only congruent when L and M are parallel.

John is looking at the eagle on top of a building The height of the building is 120 ft Approximately how many feet is Jack away

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete. A similar question is attached and is solved.

Solution:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. Types of triangles are scalene, acute, obtuse, isosceles, equilateral and right angled triangle.

A right angled triangle is a triangle with one angle equal to 90 degrees. The longest side of a right angled triangle is known as the hypotenuse. Trigonometric identities is used to show the relationship between the angles and sides of a right angled triangle, i.e.:

sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse; cosθ = adjacent / hypotenuse; tanθ = opposite / adjacent

From the image:

let the distance from jack to the base of the building be x, hence:

tan60 = x / 60

x = 60 * tan60 = 104 ft.

3 = –(–y + 6) a. –9 b. –3 c. 3 d. 9

Vlad1618 [11]

3 = -(-y + 6)

First, simplify brackets. / Your problem should look like: 3 = y - 6
Second, add 6 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 3 + 6 = y
Third, simplify 3 + 6 to 9. / Your problem should look like: 9 = y
Fourth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: y = 9

The answer is D) 9.

the area of a square mirror is 256 inches squared. A Rectagular mirror has a width the same as the square mirror`s width.Its len

hjlf

Take the square root of 256 to find the side length of the mirror
√256 =16
the rectangles width is 16, it length is 2 inches longer
16+2 =18 so the length is 18
to find the area multiply them together
18x16=288
the area is 288 inches² :)
