How can you find the slope of a line and use it to solve problems?

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Mark two points on the line in the graph.

2) Determine the rise and run. Rise ---> difference in y-coordinates. (y2-y1)

Run -----> difference in  x-coordinates (x2 - x1)

3) Plugin the values in the below mentioned formula.

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

1.If slope = 0, then the line is parallel to x-axis.

2. If slope is undefined, then the line is parallel to y-axis.

3. If slope is +ve, then the line slant upwards and if slope = -ve, then the line slant downwards.

How to solve this <br><br> 4x-3(x-2)=21
Natasha_Volkova [10]

We can start by getting rid of parenthesis:

4x-3x+6=21

Then we can combine like terms:

x=21-6

x=15

So our end product is x=15.

Hope I helped soz if I'm wrong ouo.

The length of a rectangle is 5 less than twice the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 146 cm, find the dimensions of th
Marta_Voda [28]

Length = 2x - 5

Width = x

Perimeter = 146

P = 2L + 2W

146 = 2(2x - 5) + 2x

146 = 4x - 10 + 2x

146 = 6x - 10

146 + 10 = 6x

156 = 6x

156/6 = x

26 = x

Length = 2(26) - 5

Length = 52 - 5

Length = 47 cm

Width = x

Width = 26 cm

What is 40 /6 in fraction
Serhud [2]
Well I'm assuming that you want me to simplify the fraction 40/6. Since 40 can go into 6 multiple times, this fraction is going to be a mixed number.
40/6 in simplest form is 6 2/3. Hope I helped!
