Answer: -1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the Slope (−3, 2) and (6, 1)

Slope is equal to the change in y over the change in x, or rise over run.

$m=\frac{change in y}{change in x}$

The change in x is equal to the difference in x-coordinates (also called run), and the change in y

is equal to the difference in y-coordinates (also called rise).

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute in the values of x and y into the equation to find the slope.

$m = \frac{1-(2)}{6-(-3)}$

Simplify the numerator. Tap for more steps...

$m=\frac{-1}{6-(-3)}$

Simplify the denominator.

$m=-\frac{1}{9}$

Answer:

Approximately -1/9 or -0.111111111.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to find slope is m=y2-y1/x2-x1. The m is the slope, and the y's and x's are from the coordinates. The equation will be m=1-2/6-(-3). That becomes -1/9. If you want to find the answer in decimal form, just divide -1 by 9 to get -0.111111111.

I hope this helps!

If f(1) = 160 and f(n+ 1) = -2f(n), what is f(4)?

sertanlavr [38]

F(1) = 160 is given to us. We'll use it to find f(2)
f(n+1) = -2*f(n)
f(1+1) = -2*f(1) ... replace every n with 1
f(1+1) = -2*160 ... replace f(1) with 160
f(2) = -320

Now use f(2) to find f(3)
f(n+1) = -2*f(n)
f(2+1) = -2*f(2) ... replace every n with 2
f(3) = -2*(-320) ... replace f(2) with -320
f(3) = 640

Finally, use f(3) to find f(4)
f(n+1) = -2*f(n)
f(3+1) = -2*f(3) ... replace every n with 3
f(4) = -2*640 ... replace f(3) with 640
f(4) = -1280

Final Answer: -1280

Help me please ;-;!!!!! Use a coordinate grid to create a map of a town with at least five different locations, such as a house,

Sholpan [36]

A. Our diagram have six location: my house (2,1), a movie theater (5,3), the school (6,6), the police station (3,-2), the airport (-3,3), and the mall (-2,-3)

B. Distance between my house and the movie theater:
To calculate the distance we are going to use the points (2,1) and (5,3) to create a right triangle with tow legs of measures 3 and 2; the hypotenuse of the right triangle will be the distance between my house and the movie theater.
Using the Pythagorean theorem:
$d^2=3^2+2^2$
$d^2=9+4$
$d^2=13$
$d= \sqrt{13}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the movie theater is $\sqrt{13}$

Our second distance is the distance between the police station and the airport:
This time we are using the points (3,-2) and (-3,3) to create a right triangle with legs of measures 6 and 5; the hypotenuse of our triangle will be the the distance between our points:
$d^2=6^2+5^2$
$d^2=36+25$
$d^2=61$
$d= \sqrt{61}$
We can conclude that the distance between the police station and the airport is $\sqrt{61}$

C. Distance form the park to the Fire Station:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance from the park to the Fire Station is $\sqrt{10}$

Distance from the stadium to the mall:
$d^2=2^2+1^2$
$d^2=4+1$
$d^2=5$
$d= \sqrt{5}$
We can conclude that the distance from the stadium to the mall is $\sqrt{5}$

D. What is the distance between your house and the mall?
Answer:
$d^2=4^2+4^2$
$d^2=16+16$
$d^2=32$
$d= \sqrt{32}$
$d=4 \sqrt{2}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the mall is $4 \sqrt{2}$

What is the distance between the movie theater and the school?
answer:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance between the movie theater and the school is $\sqrt{10}$
