Answer:

C, -4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope=change in y/change in x

\frac{2 - y}{5 - ( - 10)}  =  \frac{2}{5}

\frac{2 - y}{5  + 10}  =  \frac{2}{5}

multiply both sides by 2/5

2 - y =  \frac{2}{5} (5 + 10)

simplify the right side. 2/5 × 5 = 2 and 2/5 × 10 = 4

2 - y = 2 + 4

2 - y = 6

bring y to the other side by adding y on both sides

2 = 6 + y

subtract 6 on both sides

2 - 6 = y

so y is -4

Blake and his brother are participating in their school’s food drive. Blake has collected 6 1/3 pounds of food and his brother h
sergejj [24]

They will need 2 5/12 more pounds to reach their goal.

<h3>Sum and difference of fractions</h3>

Given the following information as shown:

  • Amount Blake collected = 6 1/3 pounds
  • Amount his brother collected = 5 3/4 pounds

If their goal is to collect 14 1/2 pounds of food by the end of the month, the remaining food they need to collect will be expressed as:

y =14 1/2 - (6 1/3 + 5 3/4)

y = 14 1/2 - (19/3  + 23/4)

y = 29/2 - (76+69/12)

y = 29/2 - (145/12)

y = 174-145/12

y = 29/12

y = 2 5/12

Hence they will need 2 5/12 more pounds to reach their goal.

Minor arc KL measures 135°. Circle O is shown. Line segments K O and O L are radii. Which is the radian measure of central angle
snow_lady [41]

StartFraction 3 pi Over 4 EndFraction radians

Step-by-step explanation:

Pi radians is equal to 180°

Given the minor arc angles as 135°, change this value to pi radians

180° =π radians

135° = ?

Cross multiply

135° * π radians / 180°

=135/180 *  π radians

=3 π/4  radians

In one game, the ratio of three-point baskets to three-point tries for one team was 3:8. If the team scored 27 points from three
nasty-shy [4]

Since we’ve been given a ratio, 3:8, we can convert that into a fraction and form an equation from it:

\frac{3}{8} = \frac{27/3}{?}

The reason the numerator on the second fraction is 27/3 is because the team scored 27 points, not 27 baskets.

Simplify (Also replace the ? with an unknown variable):

\frac{3}{8} = \frac{9}{n}

Cross multiply:

3*n = 9*8

Simplify:

3n = 72

Divide both sides by 3:

n = 24

The team had 33 three point tries, 9 successes, and 24 fails.

ILL GIVE BRAINLEST Determine whether the two angles in each figure are complementary, supplementary, or neither
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sum of two angles = 180°

Then the pair of angles will be supplementary.

If the sum of two angles = 90°

Then the pair of angles will be complementary.

Sum of angles having measures 98° and 82° = 98° + 82°

                                                                          = 180°

Therefore, both the angles will be supplementary.

Sum of angles having measures 134° and 36° = 134° + 36°

                                                                            = 170°

Therefore, these angles are neither supplementary nor complementary.

So the answer is NEITHER.
