Answer:

B. Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the ratio of a change in y-value to the corresponding change in x-value. When the line goes down to the right, as here, the y-value change is negative when the change in x is positive. Hence the ratio of changes is negative, and the slope is negative.

The various cases are ...

up to the right: positive slope

horizontal line: 0 slope

down to the right: negative slope . . . . what we have here

vertical line: undefined slope

Answer:

negative

Step-by-step explanation:

looking at the slope of the straight line, a positive slope will begin on the 1st quadrant and end at the 3rd quadrant

meaning if the slope is negative, it will begin on the 2nd quadrant and end on the 4th quadrant

√3=1.732 find the value of√75+1/2√48-√198

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

12.124-3 $\sqrt{22}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{75} = \sqrt{5^{2}*3} \\$

$\sqrt{48}= \sqrt{2^{2}*2^{2}*3} \\$

$\sqrt{198} =\sqrt{3^{2}*2*11} \\$

$\sqrt{75} +\frac{1}{2} *\sqrt{48} - \sqrt{198} \\\\\sqrt{5^{2}*3} +\frac{1}{2} *\sqrt{2^{2}*2^{2}*3} - \sqrt{3^{2}*2*11} \\\\5\sqrt{3} +\frac{1}{2} *4 \sqrt{3} - 3 \sqrt{2*11} \\\\5\sqrt{3} +2 \sqrt{3} - 3 \sqrt{22} \\\\5*1.732 +2*1.732 - 3 \sqrt{22} \\\\8.66 + 3.464 - 3 \sqrt{22}\\\\12.124- 3 \sqrt{22}$

The measure of the base of a triangle is represented by 4x+3 and the height is 6x represent the area of the triangle as a polyno

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

$12x^2+9x$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the area of a triangle is $\frac{bh}{2}$ . Plugging in the given base and height values, you get $\frac{(4x+3)(6x)}{2}=\frac{24x^2+18x}{2}=12x^2+9x$ . Hope this helps!
