The value of a certain car after one year was $13,595. The value of the same car after 3 years was $11,095. Find the slope and e

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

-1250/1 or -1250

This tells us that the car depreciated in value by $1250 every year.

Step-by-step explanation:

11,095-13,595= -2500

This is the value that the car has depreciated over 2 years (from the first year to the third year)

Since we need to find the slope we divide this value by two.

That value would be -1250

Since the value is negative, we know the car has depreciated in value. We also now know that it depreciated in value by $1250 every year

Hope this helps!

Select the postulate or theorem that you can use to conclude that the triangles are similar.

insens350 [35]

Answer: SAS similarity postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

According to SAS postulate of similarity, two triangles are called similar if two sides in one triangle are in the same proportion to the corresponding sides in the other, and the included angle are congruent.

In triangles, QNR and MNP,

$\frac{QN}{MN} = \frac{QM+MN}{MN} = \frac{10+8}{8} = \frac{18}{8} = \frac{9}{4}$

$\frac{NR}{NP} = \frac{NP+NR}{NP} = \frac{10+8}{8} = \frac{18}{8} = \frac{9}{4}$

$\implies \frac{QN}{MN} = \frac{NR}{NP}$

Also,

$\angle QNR\cong \angle MNP$ (Reflexive)

Thus, By SAS similarity postulate,

$\triangle QNR\sim\triangle MNP$

⇒ Option first is correct.

You are given a line that has a slope of 4 and passed through the point (3/8, 1/2). Which statements about the question of the l

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Statement 1, 2 and 4 are true where as statement 3 is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1: The y-intercept is -1

Point (3/8, 1/2)

Slope = m = 4

y = mx + c

1/2 = 4(3/8) + c

1/2 = 3/2 + c

1/2 = 3/2 + 2c/2

-2 = 2c

c = -1

This statement is true as the y-intercept is -1.

Statement 2: The slope intercept equation is y= 4x - 1

slope = m = 4

y-intercept = c = -1

y = mx + c

y = 4x - 1

This statement is true as the slope intercept equation is y= 4x -1

Statement 3: The point slope equation is y - 3/8 = 4 (x - 1/2)

Point slope equation: y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Points: (x, y) (3/8, 1/2)

y1 = 1/2

x1 = 3/8

Slope = m = 4

y - 1/2 = 4 (x - 3/8)

This statement is not true as the slope intercept equation is y - 1/2 = 4 (x - 3/8) instead of y - 3/8 = 4 (x - 1/2).

Statement 4: The point (3/8, 1/2) corresponds to (x1, y1) in the point slope form of the equation

This statement is true as shown in statement 3's explanation where x1 = 3/8 and y1 = 1/2
