What is the slope of the line through (-7,-8)(−7,−8)left parenthesis, minus, 7, comma, minus, 8, right parenthesis and (0,4)(0,4

ANEK [815]

Answer:

12/7

Step-by-step explanation:

When given two points, we can find the slope by using

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

= (4 - -8)/ (0 - -7)

= (4+8) / (0+7)

= 12/7

Solve 3x2 + 4x = 2. TEACH me how to solve this.. I know what to do once I have it in the right forum... but I do not understand

sertanlavr [38]

So if it is 3x^2+4x=2 then
set one side to zero
subtract 2 from both sides
3x^2+4x-2=0
this is not factorable by normal means so use quadratic formula which is if you have the equation in ax^2+bx+c=0 form you can solve for x if you put it into this equation quadratic formula $x=\frac{-b+ \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} or \frac{-b- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$ so if you were to input it into this equation you would get
a=3
b=4
c=-2

the solution is $x= \frac{-2+ \sqrt{10} }{3} or \frac{-2- \sqrt{10} }{3}$
the answer is C

Which pairs of points would result in a line with a rate of change of 2:1? Select all that apply.

Helen [10]

Answer:

Options A, C, D are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to choose the pair of points from that given in the attached file which will result in a line with a rate of change i.e. slope of 2:1 i.e. 2.

A. The points are (-4,-11) and (-2,-7).

Then the slope of the joining line is $\frac{-7-(-11)}{-2-(-4)} =2$
