Hatshy [7]3 years ago

Answer:

z = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the points are collinear then the slopes between the points are equal.

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = P (2, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q (3, - 2)

m = \frac{-2+3}{3-2} = 1

Repeat with

(x₁, y₁ ) = Q (3, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = R (8, z )

m = \frac{z+2}{8-3} = \frac{z+2}{5} , then

\frac{z+2}{5} = 1 ( multiply both sides by 5 )

z + 2 = 5 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

z = 3

How do i solve this quadratic equation x²+6x+c
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

recall in a perfect square trinomial, the middle term is the tale-tell guy, we know the middle term is the product of 2 and the two other guys without the exponent, so in this case 6x = 2*√x² * √c.


\bf 6x=2\cdot \sqrt{x^2}\cdot \sqrt{c}\implies 6x=2\sqrt{x^2c}\implies 6x=2x\sqrt{c}\\\\\\\cfrac{6x}{2x}=\sqrt{c}\implies 3=\sqrt{c}\implies 3^2=c\implies 9=c

Answer:

B) 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Average age means to calculate mean:

Mean = (Sum of all numbers)/(Number of numbers)

Mean = (14 + 14.5 + 12 + 11.5 + 15 + 13 + 10.5 + 13.5)/8

Mean = (104)/8

Mean = 13
