Hi there!  

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:  

m=\boxed{\frac{2}{5}}

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Here’s why:  

  • The formula for the slope of two given lines given is 'rise over run'.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\boxed{\text{Slope Formula:}}\\\\\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\rightarrow (x_1,y_1),(x_2,x_1) - \text{Two Points Given}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • We are given the points (3,5) and (8,7).

⸻⸻⸻⸻

\boxed{\text{Finding the Slope:}}\\\\\rightarrow m=\frac{7-5}{8-3}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{m=\frac{2}{5}}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.

If a stereo is sold for $59.99, and Karen pays $64.19 for it when she checks out, what is the sales tax in the area?
Stolb23 [73]

Subtract 59.99 from 64.19.

64.19 - 59.99 = 4.20

<u>The tax she paid was $4.20, so now we need to find the percentage.</u>

Divide 4.20 by 59.99.

4.20 ÷ 59.99 = 0.07

Multiply 0.07 by 100 to find the percentage.

0.07 × 100 = 7

<u>The sales tax in the area was 7%.</u>

If the telescope is 1 m deep and 8 m wide, how far is the focus from the vertex?
marysya [2.9K]
First, let me introduce the general equation of the parabola:

(x-h)^2 = +/- 4a(y-k) or (y-k)^2=+/- 4a(x-h), where

(h,k) are the coordinates of the vertex
a is the distance of the vertex to the focus
4a = length of lactus rectum or the focal width

If the equation contains (x-h)^2, then the parabola passes the x-axis twice. Similarly, (y-k)^2 passes the y-axis twice. If the sign is (-), it opens to the left(if y-axis) or downward (if x-axis). If the sign is (+), it opens to the right(if y-axis) or upward (if x-axis). 

The equation of the parabola is -1/12 x^2 = y. Rearranging to the general form:

x^2 = -12y
Therefore, 

-4a = -12
4a = 12
a = 3, and the parabola is facing downwards.

The vertex is (0,0) at the origin.
The focus is (0,-3). Since it is negative, the focus is situated downwards, hence -3.
The directrix is the mirror image of the focus. Hence, it is a line passing +3 on the y-axis. y=3
Focal width is 4a which is equal to 12 units.
