Answer:

noun

1.

a surface of which one end or side is at a higher level than another; a rising or falling surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

steepness

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness. Mathematically, slope is calculated as "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x)

step one: identify two points on the line

step two: select one to be (x1,y1) and the other to be (x2,y2)

step three: use the slope equation calulate slope

2x-3=8+7(+3)

2y-3(+3)=8x+7(+3)

2y=8x+10

----- --------

2y=8x+10

y=4x+5

Answer:

m=4

consider the polynomial 2/3x (2x-3) - (x-7) (x+7) when simplified, what is the coefficent of the quadratic term?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

x^2 - 6x + 147 so the coefficient is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify the equation.

1. 2/3x(2x-3) = (2x/3)(2x-3)-(x-7)(x+7)

2. 2x-3(2x/3) = (2x(2x-3)) - (x-7)(x+7)

3. Expand -(x-7)(x+7) = -x^2+49

Combine to get (x^2 - 6x)/3 +49

Simplify to get x^2 - 6x + 147. The coefficient of the quadratic term is one.

Marat540 [252]

Answer $32,045

Step-by-step explanation: Ok, to get the rate of depreciation all we we have to do is $45 divided by $40.480 you would get 1.1116.

The rate of depreciation: 1.1116

If you do $45,000 divided by 1.1116 you'll get 40,322.

It won't be the exact same answer because you would have to divide for an hour.

Now we can skip to the important part: $35,622 divided by 1.1116 = $32,045

Therefore the truck will be worth $32,045 in 10 years!

I hope this helped
