Show that line passing through points (3,-2) and (-4,-2) is a horizontal line​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ierofanga [76]3 years ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

horizontal lines will have a gradient(m) of 0

so if m=0 , the line is horizontal

formula to find m:

m=y2-y1 / x2-x1

insert coordinates into formula

m =  \frac{ - 2 - ( - 2)}{ - 4 - 3}  \\  \\ m =  \frac{ - 2 + 2}{ - 7}  \\ m =  \frac{0}{ - 7}  \\ m = 0

As m=0 , therefore it is a horizonta line.

hope this helps..

-3x-y=-17 4x + 2 y equals 20
ExtremeBDS [4]
-3x - y = -17
4x + 2y = 20

multiply one part of the equation so that we can be able to use the process of elimination.

(-3x - y = -17)2
4x + 2y = 20

Now we have:

-6x -2y = - 34
4x+2y= 20
------------------------
-2x = -14

Divide -2 on both sides.

-2x = -14
/-2       /-2

x = -7.


=============================================

To solve for y, we just have to substitute the value of x to any of the equation given above, that we feel comfortable with. And I'm going to choose this equation: 4x + 2y = 20


4x + 2y = 20

4(-7) + 2y = 20

-28 + 2y = 20

Add 28 on both sides

-28 + 2y = 20
+28          +28
---------------------
2y = 48
/2      /2

y = 24.


The last thing you would do is to check if the answers is correct.
All you have to do is plug in the values of x and y into both equations and see if they equal to one another.

You may have to do this by yourself :P

Anyways, if you have any questions about this topic, feel free to PM me or any other users interested. Thank you for being part of Brainly! Have a nice day!

Describe how to use a tens fact to find the difference for 15-8
scoundrel [369]
Because you need to subtract from 10, you need to do 10-8. Then you will add 5 since you took away 5 to subtract from 10.
