Find the equation of a line passing through points (-7, -10) , (-5, -20)
LuckyWell [14K]

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

                          (-7,-10) and (-5,-20).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

                                y = mx+b

here, m is the slope, b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through.

Consider (-7,-10) as point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=-7 and y1=-10.

Consider (-5,-20), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=-5 and y2=-20.

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

                       m= (-20 - -10)/(-5 - -7)

                                m= -10/2

                                   m=-5

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

                                     y=-5x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(-7,-10). When x of the line is -7, y of the line must be -10.

(-5,-20). When x of the line is -5, y of the line must be -20.

Because  line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=-5x+b. b is what we want, the -5 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specifically passes through the two points (-7,-10) and (-5,-20).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.


You can use either (x,y) point you want.The answer will be the same:

(-7,-10). y=mx+b or -10=-5 × -7+b, or solving for b: b=-10-(-5)(-7). b=-45.

(-5,-20). y=mx+b or -20=-5 × -5+b, or solving for b: b=-20-(-5)(-5). b=-45.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points (-7,-10) and (-5,-20) is y=-5x-45.

Kite EFGH is inscribed in a rectangle where F and H are midpoints of parallel sides. The area of EFGH is 35 square units. What i
sasho [114]

*see attachment for the figure described

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

==>Given the figure attached below, let where FH and EG intercepted be K.

Since FH are midpoints of parallel lines, KE = KG = x.

Given that the area of the kite EFGH = 35 square units, and we know the length of one of the diagonals = HF = KF + KH = 2 + 5 = 7, we can solve for x using the formula for the area of a kite.

Area of kite = ½ × d1 × d2

Where d1 = KH = 7

d2 = EG = KE + KG = x + x = 2x

Area of kite EFGH = 35

THUS:

35 = ½ × 7 × 2x

35 = 1 × 7 × x

35 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

35/7 = x

x = 5

What is the domain for the piece of the function represented by f(x) = x + 1?
love history [14]

Answer:

All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of the function represented by f(x) = x + 1 is the all real numbers as there is only addition involved in the function so putting any number as input will not lead the function to infinity.

PLEASE HELP<br>L has y-intercept (0,5) and is perpendicular to the line with equation y=1/3x+1
marin [14]

Answer:

y=-3x+5

Explanation:

Given a line L such that:

• L has y-intercept (0,5); and

,

• L is perpendicular to the line with equation y=(1/3)x+1.

We want to find the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is given as:

\begin{equation} y=mx+b\text{ where }\begin{cases}m={slope} \\ b={y-intercept}\end{cases} \end{equation}

Comparing the given line with the form above:

y=\frac{1}{3}x+1\implies Slope,m=\frac{1}{3}

Next, we find the slope of the perpendicular line L.

• Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

Let the slope of L = m1.

Since L and y=(1/3)x+1 are perpendicular, therefore:

\begin{gathered} m_1\times\frac{1}{3}=-1 \\ \implies Slope\text{ of line L}=-3 \end{gathered}

The y-intercept of L is at (0,5), therefore:

y-intercept,b=5

Substitute the slope, m=-3, and y-intercept, b=5 into the slope-intercept form.

\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ y=-3x+5 \end{gathered}

The equation of line L is:

y=-3x+5
