Answer:

Use the two ordered pairs to find the slope, <u>m</u>.

Then substitute <u>one set of ordered pairs</u> and <u>m</u> into y = mx + b to solve for <u>b</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are given two ordered pairs of a function and we need to write an equation that represents the linear function, first, what we need to do is to use the two ordered pair to find the slope, m, using the formula, m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}.

After getting the slope (m), find the value of the y-intercept (b), by substituting the value of one of the ordered pairs and the slope value (m) into y = mx + b.

Once the value of m and b is known, plug in the value of m and b into y = mx + b to derive the equation of the linear function.

Answer:

4√3

Step-by-step explanation:

For isosoles triangles the legs are congruent

v = u

--------------------

using the pythagorean theorem

(4√6)² = v² + v²

(16 * 6) = 2v²

Divide both sides by 2

16 * 3 = v²

Take the square root of both sides

4√3 = v

Answer:

0r

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they all have r you can pretend it s not there and add it on at the end.

Now 10 - 5 is 5. 5 + 3 is 8. 8 - 8 is 0. tack the r onto the end and you get 0r.
