Answer:

$m=\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

defition of slope(m) of a line:

$m=\frac{Y_b-Y_a}{X_b-X_a}$

A=(-1,-5)=(Xa,Ya) then Xa= -1 and Ya= -5

B=(3,-3)=(Xb,Yb) then Xb=3 and Yb= -3

$m=\frac{-3-(-5)}{3-(-1)} \\\\m=\frac{-3+5}{3+1} \\\\m=\frac{2}{4} \\\\m=\frac{1}{2}$

Find the volume of a cone with radius 28 and height 44.

Brut [27]

The volume formula for a cone is V = 1/3 pi r^2 h. We have everything we need to find the volume. V = 1/3 pi 28^2* 44. Doing that math and leaving it in terms of pi you have that the volume is 11,498.67 pi units cubed. If you multiply pi in, the answer would be 36,123.06 units cubed.

What is the slope of the line (2,3) (1,-2)?

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: The slope is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can calculate the slope of the line with this fomula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Given the points (2,3) and (1,-2), you can identify that:

$y_2=-2\\y_1=3\\x_2=1\\x_1=2$

Now, the final step is to substitute these values into the formula $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ , getting that the slope of this line is:

$m=\frac{-2-3}{1-2}$

$m=\frac{-5}{-1}\\\\m=5$

Need help solving this problem

Molodets [167]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

q is TFTF

~q use negation, not q so is the opposite of q : FTFT

p↔~q use biconditional ,and will be True only is both statements are T or both are F

p values are TTFF ↔~q values are FTFT : FTTF

(p↔~q )∧~q use conjunction, that is True only if both statements are T

(p↔~q ) values are FTTF ∧~q values are FTFT : FTFF

(p↔~q )∧~q → p use a conditional statement, where only True False will give a F

(p↔~q )∧~q values are FTFF → p values are TTFF : TTTT
