Answer:

slope = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 1)

m = \frac{1-4}{2+1} = \frac{-3}{3} = - 1

How do I determine which is y=-1/3x+2?
Jlenok [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear equation in slope intercept form which is

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The equation

y =  -  \frac{1}{3} x + 2

Has a slope of -1/3 so this means that the slope will be decreasing. A negative linear equation increases as we go left. and decreases as we go right. The y intercept is 2. So this means the graph must pass through (0,2) and when x=0, y must be 2.

In other words, look for a line that the y values increase as we go left and decrease we go right. Also look for a point (0,2) and make sure the graph pass through it.

Which of the following best describes a cylinder?
alexandr1967 [171]
Hey there!

The shape being described in letter A is a prism. A prism has two polygonal shapes on either end that can be any shape consisting of three or more sides. This won't be your answer, since cylinders have circular bases on either side. 

The shape being described in letter B is a cylinder. Not sure why they needed to throw in the plane part, but this is the only answer that describes the bases as being circular (or, as they put it, discs). 

The shape being described in letter C is a pyramid. If a shape has a polygonal base and meets at a point at the other end, it will be a pyramid. Obviously, a pyramid only has one end, meaning that this isn't your answer. 

The shape being described in letter D is a cone. Again, if a shape has a base and meets at a point, it will be a pyramid. However, in the case of a cone, the base will be circular and the other side will meet at a point. The entire shape will be rounded where a pyramid would have edges. Again, not your answer. 

Your answer will be B. Hope this helped you out! :-)

Carolyn averaged 10.4 miles per hour. At that rate, how far could she ride from 8:00 A.M. to 10:30 A.M.?
Georgia [21]

The answer is 26 miles.

Explanation:

10:30-8:00= 2:30.

10.4÷2=5.2

10.4 ×2÷ 20.8 +5.2= 26
