(-5,3) (-7, 0) What’s the slope of the line containing the two points

Mathematics
1 answer:
crimeas [40]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The slope is 3/2 or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, simply divide the rise by the run. The rise of this line can be found by subtracting one y coordinate by another (it doesn't matter which by which). The run can be found by subtracting one x coordinate by another (it doesn't matter which by which).

So, let's say, for the y coordinates, I choose to subtract 3 by 0. 3 - 0 = 3. 3 is your rise.

For the x coordinates, I can choose to subtract -5 by -7. -5 - (-7) = 2. 2 is your run.

The slope is rise/run, so your answer is 3/2, which, in decimal form, is 1.5.

Hope this helped!

<span>(3x - 1)( x + 5)(4x - 3) = 12x^3 + 47x^2 - 62x +15 </span>
<span>(3x^2 – x + 15x - 5)( 4x – 3 ) = <span>12x^3 + 47x^2 - 62x +15 </span></span>
<span>(3x^2 + 14x - 5)( 4x – 3 ) = <span>12x^3 + 47x^2 - 62x +15 </span></span>
<span>12x^3 – 9x^2 + 56x^2 – 42x – 20x + 15 = <span>12x^3 + 47x^2 - 62x +15 </span></span>
<span>12x^3 – 47x^2 - 62x + 15 = <span>12x^3 + 47x^2 - 62x +15 </span></span>

What is the solution to the system of equations?
Alisiya [41]
Solve systems of equations by graphing. A system of linear equations contains two or more equations e.g. y=0.5x+2 and y=x-2. The solution of such a system is the ordered pair that is a solution to both equations. To solve a system of linear equations graphically we graph both equations in the same coordinate system.
