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!

1) a. x = number of cars

b. x - 12

2) a. x = number of packages

b. 16 + 1/2x

3) a. x = number of coins

b. 1/2x - 6

4) 17 + x = 78

Subtract 17 from each side.

x = 61

5) x - 33 = 78

Add 33 to each side.

x = 111

6) x * 84 = 327.6

Divide each side by 84

x = 3.9

How are the sun rays like mathematical rays
Ludmilka [50]
A ray in mathematics starts at a point and extends infinitely in one direction away from that point
it differes from a line because a line extend indefinitely in both directions

the sun ray starts from the sun and does not pass through the sun so it starts from a point (the sun's surface) and extends indefinitely into space unless it hits something (planets, black holes, endpoint)

Red one !!! answer it pleasee
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

(6, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of the segment RS is point M (5, 3). Therefore, the average of the x coordinates of R and S is 5, and the average of the y coordinates of R and S is 3. The x coordinate of R is 4. For 4 and the x coordinate of S to have an average of 5, the x coordinate of S must be 6. Therefore, our point is of the form (6, y). For 8 and the y coordinate of S to have an average of 3, the y coordinate of S must be -2. Therefore, our answer is (6, -2)
