Answer:

-1/2 or $-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope, use the formula

(y₁ - y₂)/(x₁ - x₂)

(2 - -3)/(-4 - 6)

(2 + 3)/(- 4 - 6)

5/-10

1/-2

A shelf is designed so it will fit in a 90º corner between two walls. The shelf has dimensions, rounded to the nearest tenth, as

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Yes, it will fit snugly in a 90º corner

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we simply need to check if the given sides of the shelf is right-angled.

So, we have:

$Hypotenuse = \sqrt{242$

$Side\ 1 = Side\ 2 = 11$

To check for right-angle triangle, we make use of:

$Side\ 1^2 + Side\ 2^2 = Hypotenuse^2$

This gives:

$11^2 + 11^2 = \sqrt{242}^2$

$121 + 121 = \sqrt{242}^2$

$242 = \sqrt{242}^2$

$242 = 242$

This shows that the given sides of the shelf is a right-angled triangle.

Hence, it will fit the wall
