6. Describe, step-by-step how to find the slope of a line through two points.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Margarita [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the difference in y-coordinates of the 2 points divided by the corresponding difference in x-coordinates.

For example:

Find the slope of the line joining the points (3, 5) and (-2, 1)

The slope = (5 - 1) / (3 - (-2))

= 4/(3+2)

= 4/5.

NOTE:

You would get the same result if you reversed the values

- that is (1 - 5)/(-2 - 3

= -4/-5

= 4/5.

The important thing to remember is to use <em>corresponding </em>values in the calculation.

Given the sequence 7, 12, 17, 22, ...
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

option D is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

7, 12, 17, 22, ...

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by

a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d

Computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

12-7=5,\:\quad \:17-12=5,\:\quad \:22-17=5

The difference between all the adjacent terms is the same

so

d=5

as

a_1=7

Thus, the nth term of the arithmetic sequence will be:

a_n=5\left(n-1\right)+7

a_n=5n+2

Therefore, option D is true.

Help pls I got the other one wrong and my score went down :( PLS HELP ME NOW ITS PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM
vovangra [49]

Answer:

9.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

5^2+8^2 = c^2

25 +64 = c^2

89 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(89) = sqrt(c^2)

9.433981132 = c

To the nearest tenth

7x² + 6x - 1<br> Algebra 3|factoring
GaryK [48]

Answer:

(7 x - 1) (x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

7 x^2 + 6 x - 1

Factor the quadratic 7 x^2 + 6 x - 1. The coefficient of x^2 is 7 and the constant term is -1. The product of 7 and -1 is -7. The factors of -7 which sum to 6 are -1 and 7. So 7 x^2 + 6 x - 1 = 7 x^2 + 7 x - x - 1 = (7 x - 1) + x (7 x - 1):

(7 x - 1) + x (7 x - 1)

Factor 7 x - 1 from (7 x - 1) + x (7 x - 1):

Answer: (7 x - 1) (x + 1)
