Which is the formula for slope of a line.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

If the line passes through the points A(x_1,y_1) and B(x_2,y_2), then the slope of the line can be determined as

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.

Then the equation of the line is

y=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)+y_1.

Answer: correct choice is B

What is the solución of the equation x2-4x+1=0?
koban [17]

Answer:

x = 2 + √3 and

x = 2 - √3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation:  x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0.

Here you have multiple choices of methods of solution:

quadratic formula, completing the square, graphing, and so on.

If we complete the square, then:                   x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0 becomes

                                                                       x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 + 1 = 0, or

(x - 2)^2 = 3

Taking the square root of both sides, we get x - 2 = ±√3, so that the roots are:

x = 2 + √3 and

x = 2 - √3

The price of a house is originally listed at $155,000. The owners are having a hard time selling it and decide to reduce the pri
saul85 [17]

Answer:

83%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can put this into a fraction to get the ratio of the new price over the old price

\frac{128650}{155000}

This will give us the percentage of how much was decreased.

The answer you get is .83

Bring 2 decimal places to the right to get 83 (converting from decimal to percentage)

You get 83 percent to be your answer

Find the sum of the first one hundred positive integers. see fig 6.26
nignag [31]
Here's a pattern to consider:
1+100=101
2+99=101
3+98=101
4+97=101
5+96=101
.....
This question relates to the discovery of Gauss, a mathematician. He found out that if you split 100 from 1-50 and 51-100, you could add them from each end to get a sum of 101. As there are 50 sets of addition, then the total is 50×101=5050
So, the sum of the first 100 positive integers is 5050.

Quick note
We can use a formula to find out the sum of an arithmetic series:
s =  \frac{n(n + 1)}{2}
Where s is the sum of the series and n is the number of terms in the series. It works for the above problem.
