What is the standard form equation of the line shown below? Graph of a line going through negative 1, 5 and 2, 4

Mathematics

natima [27]3 years ago

Answer:

y = -1/3x + 14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard equation as;

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

the given points are;

(-1,5) and (2,4)

So we plug x and y for each of the points

then we create two linear equations which we can solve simultaneously to get the values of m and b

From the points;

5 = -m + b•••••••(i)

4 = 2m + b

from i;

b = 5 + m

substitute this into equation ii

4 = 2m + 5 + m

4 = 3m + 5

4-5 = 3m

3m = -1

m = -1/3

Recall;

b = 5 + m

b = 5-1/3

b = 14/3

so we have the equation as;

y = -1/3x + 14/3

Multiply through by 3

3y = -x + 14

I need to know if this H(3,2),J(4,1),K(-2,-4),M(-1,-5) is parallel perpendicular or neither I need to show my work and write my
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

H(3,2)  & J(4, 1)

Slope = \dfrac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\dfrac{1-2}{4-3}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-1}{1}\\\\= -1

K(-2,-4)  & M(-1 , -5)

Slope =\dfrac{-5-[-4]}{-1-[-2]}\\\\=\dfrac{-5+4}{-1+2}\\\\= \dfrac{-1}{1}\\\\\\= -1

Line HJ and KM have same slopes. So, they are parallel

Answer:

Puritans believed that people (children in particular) were inherently bad (sinners) and had to learn to behave. Salvation lay in learning to check one's natural instincts and behave as an adult.

A cardboard sheet is cut in the shape of a triangle, with vertices at (0,0), (20,0), and (3,4) units. the thickness of the sheet
kenny6666 [7]
This problem can be solved in two ways, the long way, or the short way.

1. The long way
We know that the base of the triangle is along the x-axis, and the length of the base is 20.
The centre of mass is located at 2/3 of the distance from vertex (3,4) along the median, which cuts the base at (10,0).
Therefore the centre of mass is located at
x=3+(10-3)*2/3=23/3
y=4/3

2. The short way
It turns out that the centre of mass of a triangle sheet is located at the mean of the coordinates of the three vertices, i.e.
CG=((0+20+3)/3, (0+0+4)/3)=(23/3, 4/3)  as before.
