What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 3) and (5, –2)?

m=-(5/4)

From left to right, (1,3) is first and then comes (5,-2). Always remember when finding slopes without equations, the rule is RISE over RUN, to the numerator and denominator, respectively.

The y value of the second coordinates becomes negative which is unlike the y value in the first coordinates, which means our slope is downward, meaning it has a negative sign in front.

In every slope, there’s a numerator, being the rise, and a denominator, being the run.

To find the rise, we must look at the y values. Starting at 3 going to -2 has a space of 5 units, making that our numerator.

To find the run, the first x value is 1 and the second is 5, making a space of 4, which is out denominator.

With these two numbers and the negative sign, we get -(5/4) as our slope.

Q57) if 1/4 of a packet cover 1/5 then using a packet is using 4* 1/4 of it. This means that 4*1/5 of the garden would be covered which = 4/5.

q58) the total is 24 and 9 of them are boys. Therefore it follows that 9/24 of them are boys and so thats the probability of choosing a boy at random.

The points (1,2),(1,-3),and (5,-3) form a triangle on the coordinate plane. b. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
Alexeev081 [22]
The perimeter of the triangle is 13.56 units.

The perimeter of a shape on a coordinate plane is found by finding the distance between all points, and then adding them together. It's easier to write it out than to type so I'll attach a photo of my work.

Pls fast I need help plsssss
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

ok so u know that all triangles in the inside are equal to 180

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 180-162= 18 angle a is 18, now to solve for b 180-122-18=40, angle b is 40

2.180-171=9 angle a is 9, now to solve for b 180-128-9=43, angle b is 43

3.180-35-22=132 angle c is 132, now to solve for angle d 180-22=158, angle d is 158

4. 180-20-29=131 angle c is 131, now to solve for angle d 180-20=160, angle d is 160
