Change y / change x = gradient
-5 - 1 = -6 2-5 = -3

-6/-3 = 2 so

gradient = 2

Suppose :

a = ( 5 , 1 ) and b = ( 2 , - 5 )

______________________________________

We have following equation to find the slope of the line using two points :

slope =  \frac{y(b) - y(a)}{x(b) - x(a)}  \\

Now just need to put the coordinates in the above equation ;

slope =  \frac{ - 5 - 1}{2 - 5}  \\

slope =  \frac{ - 6}{ - 3}  \\

Negatives simpliflies

slope =  \frac{6}{3}  \\

slope =  \frac{3 \times 2}{3}  \\

slope =  \frac{2}{1}  \\

slope = 2

Plz help me this one too :(
tekilochka [14]
I may be wrong but
23. X= 57.5
25. X= 16
26. X = 3
y = -2

27 = 2x + 11y = 16

Like I said I may be wrong

Find the value of X <br><br> PLEASE
Oliga [24]

Answer:

x ≈ 18

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

<u>Trigonometry</u>

Law of Cosines: a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2(b)(c)cosA

  • a is a side length
  • b is a side length
  • c is a side length
  • A is an angle corresponding with side a

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

a = x

A = 30°

b = 16

c = 30

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    x² = 16² + 30² - 2(16)(30)cos30°
  2. Exponents:                   x² = 256 + 900 -2(16)(30)cos30°
  3. Evaluate:                       x² = 256 + 900 -2(16)(30)(√3/2)
  4. Multiply:                        x² = 256 + 900 - 480√3
  5. Add:                              x² = 1156 - 480√3
  6. Subtract:                       x² = 324.616
  7. Isolate <em>x</em>:                       x = √324.616
  8. Evaluate:                       x = 18.0171
  9. Round:                          x ≈ 18
