Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = mx + b$

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

If we want to find the slope, you have to convert the equation into slope-intercept form. We have to move the whole equation to another side, leaving only y-term.

$2y - 3x = 7 \\ 2y = 7 + 3x \\ y = \frac{7 + 3x}{2}$

Simplify/Rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form.

$y = \frac{7}{2} + \frac{3}{2} x \\ y = \frac{3}{2} x + \frac{7}{2}$

Therefore, our slope is 3/2

It wont let me post a picture of the angles but they are verticle angles and the equations are (3x+8), (5x-40) and it says find

____ [38]

Vertical angles are equal

5x - 40 = 3x + 8
5x - 3x = 8 + 40
2x = 48
x = 48/2
x = 24

m∠ABC = 3x + 8 = 3 * 24 + 8 = 80°

(or m∠ABC = 5x - 40 = 5 * 24 - 40 = 80°)

Please help ASAP

Answer:

0.5 m/s

Falling at 32 feet/s

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first question, since it only asks for the average time between 2 and 8 seconds, those are the only two important values. When taking the inputs and outputs for 2 and 8 seconds after the throw ((2,3) and (8,6) respectively), we can take the average change by finding the change in y/change in x, so we have (6-3)/(8-2)=0.5 meters/second.

For the second question, we can similarly just take the values from the initial drop (144) and after two seconds (80) to get that the rate of change is (144-80)/(-2)=-32, so it's falling at 32 feet/second.

Let me know if you have any questions!

write an equation of the line perpendicular to the given line that contains P in point slope form? P (4,-4) y=1/3x+4

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer: $y+4=-3(x-4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

- The equation of the line in point-slope form is:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Where m is the slope and $(x_1,y_1)$ is a point of the line.

- The equation of the line $y=\frac{1}{3}x+4$ is written is slope-intercept form, where the slope is $\frac{1}{3}$ .

- By definition, when two lines are perpendicular to each other, the slopes are the negative reciprocals. Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line must be -3.

- Substitute the point P and the slope -3 into the equation in point-slope form, therefore, you obtain:

$y+4=-3(x-4)$
