Givens

(2,5)

(x,3)

m = 1/2

Formula

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Solution

y2 = 3

y1 = 5

x2 = x

x1 = 2

1/2 = (3 - 5)/(x - 2) Cross multiply

1*(x - 2) = 2 (-2) Combine and remove the brackets.

x - 2 = - 4 Add 2 to both sides

x = - 4 + 2

x = - 2

Can someone help! I know the answer I just need step by step!

Answer:

$4 \sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite 32 as the product of 16 and 2:

$\implies \sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16 \cdot 2$

Apply exponent rule $\sqrt{a \cdot b}=\sqrt{a}\sqrt{b}$

$\implies \sqrt{16 \cdot 2}=\sqrt{16}\sqrt{2}$

Rewrite 16 as 4²:

$\implies \sqrt{16}\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{4^2}\sqrt{2}$

Apply exponent rule $\sqrt{a^2}=a$

$\implies \sqrt{4^2}\sqrt{2}=4 \sqrt{2}$

Explain how you know the quotients 540÷90 and 5,400 ÷ 900 are equal without doing any computation..

Lelechka [254]

The quotients are equal because they both go in the same number of times. The second pair of quotients just have an extra 0 at the end which just changes the place value of the number.
