I think you have to figure out the gradient, so you take the 2 points and put it into the equation
change in y divided by change in x aka
y2-y1/x2-x1
so for question 3:
y2=4 and y1=3
(taken from the first and second coordinates)
x2=3 and y1=7
put these values jnto the equation
4-3/3-7 = 1/-4 (can be written as negative 1/4)
for question 4 its the same thing:
y2=9 and y1=5
x2=4 and x1=2
put into equation
9-5/4-2 = 4/2
hope this helps, im also hoping your teacher already has taught this because i didnt go into detail of where the equation came from, if not ask me and ill gladly help X
Answer:
Solutions are;
x = -8
x = -3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve the given equation for x
|(x-4)/(x + 5)| = 4
From what we have, this is an absolute value equation and thus, we are going to have two solutions
These are;
x-4/x+ 5 = 4
x-4 = 4(x + 5)
x-4 = 4x + 20
x-4x = 20 + 4
-3x = 24
x = -24/3
x = -8
secondly;
x-4/x+5 = -4
x-4 = -4(x + 5)
x-4 = -4x - 20
x + 4x = -20 + 4
5x = -16
x = -16/5
x = -3.2
Is that 123 or 12 times 3
Your answer is 48 minutes because you divide 6.72 by 0.14
