Hello there!

Use the slope formula:

m= $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Now, plug in all the values:

$\frac{9-9}{6-(-8)} \\\frac{0}{6+8} \\0$

The slope is 0. Why?

If we are given 2 points and their y-coordinates are the same, then the line is a horizontal line. Its rise is zero.

Another formula for Slope is Rise/Run. If the rise (the amount of units we move up) is 0, then the slope is 0.

<h2>Therefore, the slope is 0.</h2>

Hope this helps you!

X²+Y²=250 and XY=117<br> What are the values of X and Y?

yan [13]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2+y^2=250\\\\x^2-2xy+y^2+2xy=250\\\\(x-y)^2=250-2xy\\\\(x-y)^2=250-2\cdot117\\\\ (x-y)^2=16\\\\x-y=4\qquad\qquad\vee\qquad \qquad x-y=-4\\\\x=4+y \qquad\qquad \vee\qquad\qquad x=-4+y\\\\(y+4)y=117\qquad\vee\qquad\quad (y-4)y=117\\\\y^2+4y-117=0\qquad\vee\qquad y^2-4y-117=0\\\\y=\dfrac{-4\pm\sqrt{4^2-4(-117)}}{2\cdot1}\qquad\vee\qquad y=\dfrac{4\pm\sqrt{4^2-4(-117)}}{2\cdot1}\\\\y=\dfrac{-4\pm\sqrt{16+468}}{2}\qquad\ \ \vee\qquad y=\dfrac{4\pm\sqrt{16+468}}{2}$

$y_1=\dfrac{-4-22}{2}\ ,\quad y_2=\dfrac{-4+22}{2}\ ,\quad y_3=\dfrac{4-22}{2}\ ,\quad y_4=\dfrac{4+22}{2}\\\\y_1=-13\ ,\qquad y_2=9\ ,\qquad\quad\qquad\ y_3=-9\ ,\qquad y_4=13\\\\x_{1,2}=4+y_{1,2}\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad x_{3,4}=-4+y_{3,4}\\\\x_1=-9\ ,\qquad x_2=13\ ,\qquad\quad\qquad x_3=-13\ ,\qquad x_4=9$
