What is the slope of the line that passes through the points: (3, -4) & (9, 0)?

Answer: the slope is 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation: The expression for finding slope when given 2 coordinates of the line is (y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1) which just means that you take the y output of the second coordinate given to you and subtract the y output of the first coordinate given from that and the same for the x inputs. So when you plug in the numbers into that expression, you get (0- (-4)) ÷ (9 - 3). When you subract something from a negative number, its the same as adding. So it could also be written as (0 + 4) ÷ (9 - 3). When you subtract and add the numbers in both parentheses you end up with the fraction 4/6, but now you need to simplify that fraction which leaves you with the final answer of the fraction 2/3!

I hope this helps :)

Write the equation of the circle that has a diameter with endpoints (3,7)<br> and (3, 1)
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

(x - 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 3^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that both endpoints are on the vertical line x = 3.  Thus, to determine the diameter of this circle, we need only subtract 1 from 7, obtaining 6.  The diameter is 6, so the radius is 3.

The center is on the vertical line x = 3 and is halfway between the endpoints of the diameter, that is, at y = 4.  (3, 4) describes this point.

Then we insert the known quantities into the general equation for a circle with center at (h, k) and radius r:  3 for h, 4 for k and 3 for r:

(x - 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 3^2 is the desired equation.
