<u>Answer:</u>

The slope of the line passing through the points (-2, 4) and (5, -1) is \frac{-5}{7}

<u>Solution:</u>

We know the slope intercept of the line is given by y = mx + c, where m is the slope of the line and c is a constant

To find the value of ‘m’ we use the given formula

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

Here ,

x_1= -2

x_2= 5

y_1= 4

y_2= -1

Substituting the values in formula for m, we get

m=\frac{-1-4}{5-(-2)}

m=\frac{-1-4}{5+2)}

m=\frac{-5}{7)}

Therefore the slope of the line passing through the points (-2, 4) and (5, -1) is \frac{-5}{7}

Answer:

<h2>The slope is -5/7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

you can solve it many ways but i solved it this way

you take ur y2 and y1 and set it over x2 and x1

you get -1-4 / 5- -2

simply it

and it gives you -5/7

How would you solve 3x^2-12=0?
Gennadij [26K]

                                                                                 3x^2 - 12  =  0

Personally, I would divide each side by 3                x^2 - 4  =  0

Then I would add 4 to each side                              x^2        =  4

Then I would take the square root of each side:     x  =  +4
                                                                                     x  =  -4 .

Having found both solutions, I would relax with a cup of tea.

You have an account with a principal of $200. it pays 8% at the end of every year. calculate the principal at the end of 3 years
Katarina [22]

Simple interest is a method of calculating interest on an amount for n period of time with a rate of interest of r. The principal at the end of 3 years is $248.

<h3>What is simple interest?</h3>

Simple interest is a method of calculating interest on an amount for n period of time with a rate of interest of r. It is calculated with the help of the formula,

SI = (P × R × T)/100

where SI is the simple interest, P is the principal amount, R is the rate of interest, and T is the time period.

The principal at the end of 3 years is,

Principal after 3 years = P + (P × R × T)

= $200 + ($200 × 0.08 × 3)

= $200 + $48

= $248

Hence, the principal at the end of 3 years is $248.
