Find the slope of the line that passes through the two points 2,-4 & 4,-1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lemur [1.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I have this saved on my computer in notepad b/c this type of question get asked sooo often :/

point P1 (-4,-2)  in the form (x1,y1)

point P2(3,1)  in the form (x2,y2)

slope = m

m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

My suggestion is copy that above and save it on your computer for questions like this

now use it

Point 1  , P1 = (2,-4)   in the form (x1,y1)

Point 2 , P2 = (4,-1)  in the form (x2,y2)

m = [ -1-(-4) ]  /  [ 4-2]

m =  (-1+4) / 2

m = 3 / 2

so now we know the slope is  3/2  :)

Given: 2x + 3y= 6.<br>What is the y-intercept?<br>(0,3)<br>(2,0)<br>(0,2)<br>no intercept<br><br>​
nirvana33 [79]
Answer: (0,2) Explanation: You plug in the coordinates into the equation and find which points make the equation true. Plugging in (0,2) turns the equations into (2•0) + (3•2) = 6. Simplify it and you get 6 = 6 which is true.

A random number generator is used to select a number from 1 to 100 what is the probability of selecting number 151
topjm [15]
0.

It is impossible for 151 to be selected, as it is outside the range of numbers (1 to 100) that can be selected. Therefore the probability is 0.

How do i show my working when trying to work out 3 1/3 divided by 4?
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, we use a rule where we keep the first number, change the sign, and flip the second number.

3 1/3 must be converted to an improper fraction before we can do this, though.

3 1/3 is 10/3 because we multiply 3 by the denominator, also 3, and then add one, so 10/3.

Now we can divide. Remember 4 is the same thing as 4/1

10/3 ÷ 4/1

Keep the first fraction the same, change the division sign into a multiplication sign, and divide by flip the second fraction.

It ends up looking like 10/3 x 1/4

Multiply: 10 x 1 and 3 x 4

It's 10/12, but we can simplify that by dividing both the top and the bottom by 2.

The final answer is 5/6

If three quarters of a number decreased by twenty is equal to eighty two, what is that number?
Studentka2010 [4]

A number is :

x

_________________________________

Three quarters of it means :

\frac{3}{4}x \\

_________________________________

Decrease by 20 means :

\frac{3}{4}x - 20 \\

_________________________________

Equals to 82 means :

\frac{3}{4}x - 20 = 82 \\

_________________________________

What is that number ?

x asked so we must solve the above equation for x.

Let's do it....

\frac{3}{4}x - 20 = 82 \\

Plus sides 20

\frac{3}{4}x = 82 + 20 \\

\frac{3}{4}x = 102 \\

Multiply sides by 4

3x = 102 \times 4

Divided sides by 3

x =  \frac{102 \times 4}{3} \\

x =  \frac{102}{3} \times 4 \\

Simplify

x = 34 \times 4

x = 136

So that number is 136 .

_________________________________

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.
