To find the slope of a line that goes through given points with known coordinates, you divide the subtraction of the y of the second point minus the y of the first point, by the subtraction of the x of the second point minus the x of the first point:
m = (yB-yA) / (xB-xA)
Let A(8,5) and B(6,7).
With yB = 7; yA = 5; xB = 6; xA = 8
m = (7-5) / (6-8)
m = 2/-2
m = -1
So the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) and (6,7) is m = -1.
I've added a pic of the line with both points under the answer.
Hope this Helps! :)
Answer:
2 real solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember this messy thing?
The <em>quadratic formula</em>, as it's called, gives us the roots to any quadratic equation in standard form (ax² + bx + c = 0). The information on the <em>type</em> of roots is contained entirely in that bit under the square root symbol (b² - 4ac), called the <em>discriminant</em>. If it's non-negative, we'll have <em>real</em> roots, if it's negative, we'll have <em>complex roots</em>.
For our equation, we have a discrimant of (-3)² - 4(6)(-4) = 9 + 96 = 105, which is non-negative, so we'll have real solutions, and since quadratics are degree 2, we'll have exactly 2 real solutions.
Answer:17,000
Step-by-step explanation:Add 532+150=680 then times it by 25 which equals 17,000
Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form:
Y -6 = -3(x - -8)
Use the distributive property on the right side first:
Y -6 = -3x -24
Add 6 to both sides
Y = -3x -18
The slope is the number in front of the x variable.
Slope = -3
Use substitution.
y = 2 - x and y = 4x + 7 can become
2 - x = 4x + 7
Now solve for x
-5 = 5x
-1 = x
Now plug -1 for x in either equation.
y = 2 - x -> y = 2 - (-1) -> y = 3
y = 4x + 7 -> y = 4*-1 + 7 -> y = -4 + 7 -> y = 3
So C) is the correct answer.
