Answer:

m = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

use the slope formula so m = 1- -2 / -1 - 2

m = 1+2/-3, m=3/-3 so m = -1

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are given below. Classify the triangle as acute, obtuse, or right.

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

A. Acute Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets verify with Pythagorean:

17² = 289
13² + 14² = 169 + 196 = 365
289 < 365

The angle opposite to a greater side is less than 90° and the sum of the squares are close.

It means all three angles are less than 90°.

With this the triangle is acute.

Correct choice is A.

The population of bacteria in a culture doubles every 14 hours. How long will it take for

Snezhnost [94]

Answer: 22 hours 11 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

$P=P_o\cdot e^{(kt)}\\\\\text{Since the initial population is doubled in 14 hours, then:}\\2P_o=P_o\cdot e^{k\cdot 14}\\2=e^{14k}\\ln\ 2=ln\ e^{14k}\\ln\ 2=14k\\\\\dfrac{ln\ 2}{14}=k\\\\0.0495=k\\\\\\\text{Now that the k-value has been determined, we can find the time when the}\\\text{population is tripled:}\\3P_o=P_o\cdot e^{0.0495t}\\3=e^{0.0495t}\\ln\ 3=ln\ e^{0.0495t}\\ln\ 3=0.0495t\\\\\dfrac{ln\ 3}{0.0495}=5\\\\22.19=t\\\\22\ hrs +0.19\ hrs$
