Answer:

-5/2 or -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(33 - 8) / (-16 + 6)

25 / -10

= -5/2

So, the slope is -5/2 or -2.5

Answer:

<h2><u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

We know that

Slope

$\bf \: \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where

y2 = 33

y1 = 8

x2 = -16

x1 = -6

33 - 8/-16 - 8

25/-24

Which equation represents the value of x? x=100−y2−−−−−−−√ x=10+y2 x=10−y x=y2+100−−−−−−−√ Right triangle A B C with angle B as

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Therefore the required value of x,

$x=\sqrt{(100-y^{2})}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

ΔBC is a Right Angle Triangle at ∠ B = 90°

As ∠ B = 90° , AC will be the Hypotenuse

AC = 10 = Hypotenuse

BC = y = Longer leg ( say )

AB = x = Shorter leg ( say )

To Find :

x = ?

Solution:

In Right Angle Triangle Δ ABC , By Pythagoras Theorem we get

$(\textrm{Hypotenuse})^{2} = (\textrm{Shorter leg})^{2}+(\textrm{Longer leg})^{2}$

Substituting the given values we get

$10^{2}= x^{2}+y^{2} \\\\x^{2}=100-y^{2} \\\\\textrm{square rooting on both the side we get}\\\\x=\sqrt{(100-y^{2})}\\\therefore x=\sqrt{(100-y^{2})}\ \textrm{ which is the required value of x}$

Therefore the required value of x,

$x=\sqrt{(100-y^{2})}$

Which number line can be used to find the distance between (-1, 2) and (-5, 2)

wariber [46]

Answer:

y = 2; distance is 4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Line y = 2

Because the y- coordinate is the same, only horizontal movement from -1 to -5..
