The slope of a line is given by the ratio of the rise to the run of the line.

The value of, y is <u>4</u>

Reasons:

The given points on the line are; (-4, y), and (5, 7)

The slope of the line, = \dfrac{1}{3}

Required:

To find the value of <em>y</em>

<em />

Solution:

The formula for the slope is given as follows;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where;

(x₁, y₁) = (-4, y)

(x₂, y₂) = (5, 7)

Which gives;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{7-y}{5-(-4)} = \dfrac{7-y}{5+4} =\dfrac{1}{3}

3·(7 - y) = 1·(5 + 4) = 9

21 - 3·y = 9

3·y = 21 - 9 = 12

y = \dfrac{12}{3} = 4

The value of, y = <u>4</u>

Ok so, basically reflect the shape horizontally across the y - intercept. In the exact same position but reflected across. I’m not sure because I can’t really see the points. Does it give you options? Or do you have to type it?

Multiply and simplify. 2x4yx⋅6xy2z3
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The given expression 2x^4yx \times 6xy^2z^3   on multiplying  is 12x^6y^3z^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the given two expressions 2x^4yx and 6xy^2z^3

We have multiply both expressions,

2x^4yx \times 6xy^2z^3

To multiply two terms first multiply constant numbers that is 6 × 2 = 12

For x , y and z apply property of exponent,

x^a\cdot x^b=x^{a+b}

Then power of x together will be,

x^4\cdot x\cdot x=x^{4+1+1}=x^6

Similarly for y powers,

y \cdot y^2=y^{1+2}=y^3

Since first term do not have any expression for z so it will remain same.

Thus, the given expression  on multiplying become,

2x^4yx \times 6xy^2z^3 is 12x^6y^3z^3
