Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope by using change in y divided by change in x.

Change in y = 5 - 2 = 3

Change in x = 2 - 1 = 1

This means that the slope is 3/1 = 3.

Then, you put it in the point-slope form so:

(y - 2) = 3(x - 1)

First set up a proportion
240/160 = 320/200
Cross multiply and if the left equals the right it is similar.

Answer:

C) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Arcs on one side of the diameter adds upto 180°.

Therefore,

$(2 + 17x) \degree + 54 \degree + 56 \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ (2 + 17x) \degree + 110 \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ (2+ 17x) \degree = 180 \degree - 110 \degree\\ \\ (2 + 17x) \degree = 70 \degree \\ \\ 2 + 17x = 70 \\ 17x = 70 - 2 \\ \\ x = \frac{68}{17} \\ \\ x = 4$

What is the slope of the line that has an x-intercept at x=12 and a y-intercept at y=−20?

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The slope is 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(12,0)

(0,-20)

Changes in y is -20-0=-20

Changes in x is 0-12=-12

Rise(y) over run(x) = -20/-12

-5/-3

One light-year equals 5.9 x 1012 miles. How many light-years are in 6.79

inna [77]

Option B

The number of light years in $6.79 \times 10^{16}$ miles is 11508 light years

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

One light-year equals 5.9 x 10^12 miles

Therefore,

$1 \text{ light year } = 5.9 \times 10^{12} \text{ miles }$

To find: Number of light years in $6.79 \times 10^{16}$ miles

Let "x" be the number of light years in $6.79 \times 10^{16}$ miles

Then number of light years in $6.79 \times 10^{16}$ miles can be found by dividing $6.79 \times 10^{16}$ miles by miles in 1 light year

$\text{Number of light years in } 6.79 \times 10^{16} miles = \frac{6.79 \times 10^{16}}{5.9 \times 10^{12}}\\\\\text{Use the law of exponent }\\\\\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}\\\\\text{Number of light years in } 6.79 \times 10^{16} miles = \frac{6.79}{5.9} \times 10^{16-12}\\\\\text{Number of light years in } 6.79 \times 10^{16} miles = 1.1508 \times 10^4\\\\\text{Number of light years in } 6.79 \times 10^{16} miles = 11508$

Thus number of light years in $6.79 \times 10^{16}$ miles is 11508 light years
