Find the value of x so that the line passing through (10, 5) and (x, 9) has a slope of -2. -2 8 -8 2

The slope formula is the difference of the y values over the difference in the x values.  We have a slope, so we will fill in the formula with what we have and then solve for x: -2= \frac{9-5}{x-10}.  Multiply both sides by x-10 to get rid of the fraction.  -2(x-10) = 4.  Distribute to get -2x+20=4 and -2x = -16.  That gives us an x value of 8.

What is the measure of (2x+94) = (8x+10)
Anna [14]
I subtract 2x  to 8x that is equal to 6x; then I subtract 10 from right to left. So 94-10 equal 84. Now you got 6x=84, divide 6 both side and you got the answer. 
 
The answer is x= 14

Write the expression in algebraic form. [hint: sketch a right triangle.] tan(arcsec(x/3))
WARRIOR [948]

Sketch  a right triangle having adjacent side(A) is given as “3”, hypotenuse side (H) is “x” and assigning angle “a” as the angle between A and H. Using Pythagorean theorem, you will get “square root of x-squared minus 9” as the opposite side (O). Using SOH CAH TOA function, and since secant is the reciprocal of cosine, sec(a) = x/3. Thus, a = arcsec(x/3). The remaining expression tan(a) is Opposite side over Adjacent side which is equal to “square root of x^2 - 9” over "3". Therefore, the algebraic expression would be: tan(arcsec(x/3)) = “sqrt (x^2 -9)” /3. Different answers can be made depending on which side you consider the “3” and “x”.
