Question:

Find the gradient of the line passing through (6,8) and (4,10).

Answer:

-1 is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the line = The gradient of the line

Gradient of the line is known as change in the value of y-axis by change in the value of x-axis

Gradient = ∆y\∆x

Gradient = \frac{y_ 2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}  =  \frac{(10 - 8)}{(4 - 6)}  =  \frac{(2)}{(- 2)} =\boxed{- 1}\\

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that passes through each point with the given slope (-1,-2) m= 3
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<h2>           y + 2 = 3(x + 1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The Point-Slope form of equation of a line with slope of "m" and passing through point (x₁, y₁) is:  y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

m = 3

x₁ = -1

y₁ = -2

Therefore the equation:

                                      y - (-2) = 3(x - (-1))

<h3>                                   y + 2 = 3(x + 1)</h3>

A family has two cars. the first car has a fuel efficiency of 40 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of
Aliun [14]
Let x and y represent the numbers of gallons used by the 40 mpg and 35 mpg cars, respectively.
.. x +y = 40 . . . . . . . . . . .total consumption is 40 gallons
.. 40x +35y = 1525 . . . . total miles driven = 1525

Multiply the first equation by 40 and subtract the second.
.. 40(x +y) -(40x +35y) = 40(40) -(1525)
.. 5y = 75
.. y = 15
.. x = 40 -15 = 25

The 40 mpg car consumed 25 gallons.
The 35 mpg car consumed 15 gallons.

What is the midpoint of the segment (1, -1) (4, -6)
Sophie [7]
When looking for the midpoint of a segment defined by two end points, the average of both coordinates are taken. Averaging the 2 x-coordinates give the new x-coordinate, and the same applies for the y-coordinate. This is shown below:

Midpoint = ( (1 + 4)/2 , (-1 + -6)/2 )
Midpoint = (2.5 , -3.5)
