What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (4, 5) and (7, 3)

swat32

Answer:

y = -2/3x + 23/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let equation of the line be y = mx + c

m = (3-5)/(7-4) = -2/3 gradient/slope formula

sub (4, 5)

5 = -2/3 (4) + c

c = 23/3

therefore, equation of the line is y = -2/3x + 23/3

Hope it helps! :)

AVprozaik [17]

Given that,

A circular running track is ¼ mile long.

Elena runs on this track, completing each lap in 1/16 of an hour

To find,

Elena’s running speed.

Solution,

Formula used :

Speed = distance/time

$v=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{4}}{\dfrac{1}{16}}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}\times 16\\\\=4\ mph$

So, Elena’s running speed is 4 mph.

The coordinates of the vertices of a polygon are (-2, 1). (-3, 3), (-1, 5), (2, 4), and (2, 1). What is the perimeter of the pol

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

$15.2\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Plot the vertices of the polygon to better understand the problem

we have

$A(-2, 1). B(-3, 3), C(-1, 5), D(2, 4),E(2, 1)$

using a graphing tool

The polygon is a pentagon (the number of sides is 5)

see the attached figure

The perimeter is equal to

$P=AB+BC+CD+DE+AE$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 2

<em>Find the distance AB</em>

$A(-2, 1). B(-3, 3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(3-1)^{2}+(-3+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(2)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{5}=2.24\ units$

step 3

<em>Find the distance BC</em>

$B(-3, 3), C(-1, 5)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(5-3)^{2}+(-1+3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(2)^{2}+(2)^{2}}$

$d_B_C=\sqrt{8}=2.83\ units$

step 4

<em>Find the distance CD</em>

$C(-1, 5), D(2, 4)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(4-5)^{2}+(2+1)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$d_C_D=\sqrt{10}=3.16\ units$

step 5

<em>Find the distance DE</em>

$D(2, 4),E(2, 1)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+(2-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$d_D_E=\sqrt{9}\ units$

$d_D_E=3\ units$

step 6

<em>Find the distance AE</em>

$A(-2, 1).E(2, 1)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(2+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$d_A_E=\sqrt{16}\ units$

$d_A_E=4\ units$

step 7

Find the perimeter

$P=AB+BC+CD+DE+AE$

substitute the values

$P=2.24+2.83+3.16+3+4=15.23\ units$

Round to the nearest tenth of a unit

$P=15.2\ units$

Two numbers have a sum of -9. One number is x. What expression represents the other number?

Anika [276]

Assume that the other number is y.
we know that the addition of both number is -9
this means that:
x+y=-9
reorder this equation to seperate the y variable:
y=-9-x
