To find the slope of a line given two points, you should use the formula,
Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1.

In this exercise is given the coordinates of two points and it is asked to find the slope of the line which intercepts both points, which are (1,7) and (10,1). To find the slope, you should substitute the given coordinates into the previous mention formula.

Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1
Slope=(7-1)/(1-10)
Slope=-6/9
Slope=-2/3

The slope of the line that passes through the points (1,7) and (10,1) is -2/3.

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: \frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}

\frac{1-7=-6}{10-1=9}=\frac{-6}{9}=\frac{-6/2}{9/3}=\frac{-2}{3}

<u><em>Slope is -2/3</em></u>

<u><em>Answer: -2/3</em></u>

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Convert 3/11 to a decimal equivalent using long division. (Ex: 80-30 is what I need but I'm not sure.)
Virty [35]
.27 repeating....  you have to put three on the inside and 11 outside, so 11 goes into 3 zero times so put a zero at the top. Write a zero underneath and subtract     3-0 (obviously 3) and put a decimal point after the first three under the sign and the 0 above it.  Add a zero after the threes decimal, and carry it down to the bottom most 3 to have 30.  11 goes into 30 two times so write a 2 at the top. Subtract the 30-22 at the bottom and get 8. Add another 0 after the 3 ( so now 3.00) and carry it to the 8 (80). 11 goes in 7 times, 77. So 7 on top and 80-77= 3 below.  Add another zero to repeat process if necessary, but otherwise it repeats, just so you know ;) hope this helps

Which set of lengths are the side lengths of a right triangle? (9,15,17) (14,23,25) (20,30,40) (15,36,39)
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

(15, 36, 39)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using pythagoreas formula: A^2 * B^2 = C^2

so a=15, b=36, c=39

15^2+36^2=39^2

2. Saul invested an average of $425 per month since age 30 in various securities for his
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

$507.30

Step-by-step explanation:

-Given the monthly deposits are $425 and the interest rate is 3.5% for 30 years.

-The amount of the investment after 30 years is calculated as;

A=P(1+i/n)^n, n=time \ in \ months\\\\=425(1+0.035/12)^{30\times 12}\\\\=1212.65

-Assuming Saul started saving at age 20, his investment term will be 40 yrs.

-His investment amount is thus:

A=P(1+i/n)^n, n=time \ in \ months\\\\=425(1+0.035/12)^{40\times 12}\\\\=1719.95

#We subtract to find how much more he would have if he started saving at 20;

=A_{20}-A_{30}\\\\=1719.95-1212.65\\\\=507.30

Hence, Saul would have $507.30 more had he started saving 10 years earlier.
