What is the standard form of the points (-3,4) (2,-6)

Mathematics

Bas_tet [7]3 years ago

The standard form equation of the line connecting the two points is 2x +  y = -2

Linear equation in a standard form is given as Ax + By = C

where,

A, B, and C are constants or numbers

x and y are the variables.

To solve this problem, the following steps would be taken:

Step 1: Find the slope of the line connecting points (-3,4) and (2,-6)

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

where,

(x_1, y_1) = (-3,4)\\(x_2, y_2) = (2,-6)

Substitute

slope (m) = \frac{-6 - 4}{2 -(-3)} \\m = \frac{-10}{5}\\m = -2

Step 2: Find the y-intercept (b) of the line by substituting (x, y) = (-3,4) and m = -2 into y = mx + b (slope-intercept form)

4 = -2(-3) + b\\4 = 6 + b\\4 - 6 = 6 + b - 6\\-2 = b\\b = -2

Step 3: Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form by substituting m = -2 and b = -2 into y = mx + b

y = -2x + (-2)\\y = -2x - 2

Step 4: Rewrite the equation in standard form (Ax + By = C)

y = -2x - 2\\

Add 2x to both sides

2x + y = -2x - 2 + 2x\\2x +  y = -2

The standard form equation of the points (-3,4) and (2,-6) is 2x +  y = -2

Bryce intended to swim directly across a stream that is 99 meters wide. But the current caused him to arrive at the opposite sho
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

101 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct path across the stream and perpendicular to both sides of the stream is one leg of a right triangle. The 20 meter distance on the arriving side of the stream is another leg of the right triangle. The path he actually took is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

leg 1 = 99 m

leg 2 = 20 m

hypotenuse = ?

We have a right triangle, and we know the lengths of the two legs. We need to find the length of the hypotenuse, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

99^2 + 20^2 = c^2

9801 + 400 = c^2

c^2 = 10201

c = sqrt(10201) = 101

Answer: 101 meters

PLEASE HELP! IM ALMOST DONE WITH THIS ASSIGNMENT PLSSS HELPP ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST SHOW UR WORK
Talja [164]

Answer:

x = -3

y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

2y = x - 13

3x = y - 1;  let y = 3x + 1

substitute to solve for 'x':

2(3x + 1) = x - 13

6x + 2 = x - 13

5x + 2 = -13

5x = -15

x = -3

solve for 'y':

3(-3) = y - 1

-9 = y - 1

-8 = y
