Answer: 130 kg 920 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The weight of the goat is 59 kg 720 g

The combined weight of goat and cow is 190 kg 640 g

Suppose, the weight of the cow is x kg

We know, 1 kg=1000 g

Converting weight into kg

Goat weight

$=59+0.720\\=59.720\ kg$

Total weight

$=190+0.640\\=190.640\ kg$

Then, the cow weight is given by

$\Rightarrow 190.640-59.720\\\Rightarrow 130.920\ kg\ \text{or}\ 130\ kg\ 920\ g$

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 3) and (8, 6)

nadezda [96]

Answer:

The slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of two points, divide the difference between the y values by the difference between x values, you can remember this by the mnenomic "rise over run". In this case, the difference between y and x values would be 6 - 3 = 3 and 8 - 2 = 6 respectively. This means the slope between the two points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is $\frac{3}{6}$ or $\frac{1}{2}$ .
