Slope of a line passing though point (x1,y1) nd (x2,y2) is
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

we have
(1,-3) and (3,-5)
x1=1
y1=-3
x2=3
y2=-5

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

slope=-1

What is cos theta when sin theta = sqrt 2/3

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Value of cosθ is ±√7/3 .

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question , value of :

$\red{\implies sin\theta = \dfrac{\sqrt2}{3}}$

And , we know the identity of sine and cosine as ,

$\boxed{\pink{\sf\implies sin^2\theta + cos^2\theta = 1} }$

Using , this identity we have ;

$\implies sin^2\theta + cos^2\theta = 1 \\\\\implies \bigg( \dfrac{\sqrt2}{3}\bigg)^2 + cos^2\theta = 1 \\\\\implies \dfrac{2}{9} + cos^2\theta = 1 \\\\\implies cos^2\theta = 1 - \dfrac{2}{9} \\\\\implies cos^2\theta = \dfrac{9-2}{9} \\\\\implies cos\theta = \sqrt{\dfrac{7}{9}} \\\\\underline{\boxed{\blue{\bf \implies cos\theta = \pm \dfrac{\sqrt 7 }{3}}}}$

Now , here since θ is in 2nd quadrant and in 2nd quadrant cos is negative . Hence ,the value of cos will be :

$\boxed{\orange{\bf \implies cos\theta =-\dfrac{\sqrt7}{3}}}$

Help me with this question this was supposed to be due yesterday!

Inessa05 [86]

Answer: Both the mean and median decreased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The addition of the 500 lb baby elephant will have a huge impact on the mean, since you'll be finding the average (adding all numbers then dividing). So the only logical answer would be the chosen. The median will most likely either decrease or stay the same, but since staying the same isn't an option for the median, it's most likely going to be decrease.

[I do apologize in advance if it's wrong, and next time try submitting work on time :)) Hope I helped!]

A store is instructed by corporate headquarters to put a markup of 43% on all items. An item costing $7 is displayed by the st

docker41 [41]

Answer:

The correct price is 10.01

Step-by-step explanation:

The manager multiplied the price by 43%, instead of noticing the words "mark up", which means the price increased by 43 percent and the cost is multiplied by 143/100!
