Mathematics

Answer:

y = m x + b      equation of a straight line

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)     slope of line

m = (17 - 10) / (-36 - 48) = 7 / -84 = -1 / 12

y = -x / 12 + b     equation of line

Or b = y + x / 12

If y =  10 and x = 48 then    b = 10 + 48 / 4 = 14

if  y = 17 and x = -36 then b = 17 - 36 / 12 = 14

So b = 14 and   y = -x / 12 + 14

Describe the pattern in the sequence. Find the next two terms of the difference -2, -5,-8, -11
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

"-3" is added to a sequence member to get the next number. This next two terms are -14 and  -17


Discussion:

Note that -2 -3 = -5 and

                -5 -3 = -8 and

                -8 - 3 = -11


"-3" is added to a sequence member to get the next number. This implies that the next two terms are -11 -3 = -14 and -14 -3 = -17

Peter leaves his house and walks 15 meters south, then turns east and walks another 15 meters. How far is he from his house? Rou
Varvara68 [4.7K]
When Peter does this, he is creating two sides of a right-angle triangle. The distance from his house to that point will be the hypotenuse of the triangle thus, to work out the length of the hypotenuse, we have to use Pythagoras Theorem! So:

a² + b² = c²
15² + 15² = c²
225 + 225 = c²
450 = c²
15√2 = c
21.21320344 = c

So, this rounded to the nearest tenth would be:

21.2 meters !

2. = 37/99 (find the lowest common denominator which is 99 then multiply them, then combine fractions then subtract them)

3. 2/25

4. 12/18 which simplified is 2/3

5. 5/15 which simplified = 1/3

Hope you understand that:)

Someone help me with example plzz
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Angle JML= 132( given)

Triangle JML= 180( Angle sum property)

2x+ 48= KML( Exterior angle property)

In triangle JML,

76 + ∠L+ ∠KML=180°

∠KML=∠L( angles opposite to equal sides are equal)

76+2(2x+48)=180°

2(2x+48)=104°

2x=104-48=64°

x= 32°

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope it helps : )
