Answer:

$y+1 = 2 (x -3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is

$y - y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

The points you have are (3, -1). The 3 is $x_{1}$ and the -1 is $y_{1}$

The slope, m, is 2.

Plugin the numbers for the variables.

$y - -1 = 2 (x -3)\\y + 1 = 2 (x - 3)$

ABDE is a rectangle on coordinate axes, the sides of the rectangle are parallel to the axes,

Hitman42 [59]

The coordinates of B and D are the location of the vertices B and D in the rectangle

The coordinates of B and D are (55, 30) and (55, 14)

<h3>How to determine the coordinates of B and D?</h3>

From the figure of the rectangle, we have:

A = (25,30)

C = (40, 22)

Point B has the same y-coordinate as point A

So, we have:

B = (x, 30)

The x-coordinate is then calculated as:

Bx = 2Cx - Ax

This gives

Bx = 2*40 - 25

Bx = 55

So, the coordinates of B are:

B = (55, 30)

Point D has the same x-coordinate as point B

So, we have:

D = (55, y)

The y-coordinate is then calculated as:

Dy = Cy - (By - Cy)

This gives

Dy = 22 - (30 - 22)

Dy = 14

So, the coordinates of B are:

D = (55, 14)

Hence, the coordinates of B and D are (55, 30) and (55, 14)

True or false and if false what would be the correct term be?

vagabundo [1.1K]

It’s True.. you take the “extreme” variable from each proportion and cross multiply them before setting them equal to the product of the two “means” (which are just the other 2 numbers in the proportions).

Use the fraction strips to compare 2/4 and 5/8. use the drop-down menus to explain your comparison.

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 fractional numbers:

$1.\ \dfrac{2}4\\2.\ \dfrac{5}8$

We have to use fraction strips to compare to the fractional numbers.

Let we are Comparing $\frac{2}{4}$ with the length of $x$ number of $\frac{1}4$ sections.

i.e.

$\dfrac{2}{4} = x \times \dfrac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{2 \times 4}{4}\\\Rightarrow x = 2$

Let we are Comparing $\frac{5}{8}$ with the length of $y$ number of $\frac{1}8$ sections.

i.e.

$\dfrac{5}{8} = y \times \dfrac{1}{8}\\\Rightarrow y = \dfrac{5 \times 8}{8}\\\Rightarrow y = 5$

Now, let us have a look at 3rd part of question:

The sections of 2/4 is _____ the length of 5/8. Therefore, 2/4 < 5/8

Let the answer be $z$ .

So, the equation becomes:

$\dfrac{2}{4} = z \times \dfrac{5}{8}\\\Rightarrow z = \dfrac{2 \times 8}{4 \times 5}\\\Rightarrow z = \dfrac{2 \times 2}{5}\\\Rightarrow z = \dfrac{4}{5}$
