What is the slope of the line containing the points (-6,4) and (2,1)

1 answer:

salantis [7]2 years ago

In order to find the slope, we need the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). The x and y represent the point (x,y). (-6,4) is our first point. (2,1) is our second point. (1-4)/2-(-)6 > -3/2+6> -3/8

The slope is -3/8.

$\frac{x+3}{12}$ = $\frac{2}{7}$

Multiply both sides by 12, so that we get rid of the fraction in x.

12 · (x+3)/12 = 2/7 · 12

Simplify.

x + 3 = 24/7

Then, subtract 3 from both sides, so that "x" gets isolated.

x = 24/7 - 3

Turn "3" into an improper fraction so that we could find the value of x easier.

3 = 21/3

So :

x = 24/7 - 21/7

Simplify.

x = 3/7

a rectangle has a length of (x+3) centimeters and a width of 1/2x centimeters. If the perimeter is 24 centimeters, what is the l

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle is 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) cm and a width of rectangle (w) = $\frac{1}{2} x$ cm a

Also, perimeter of rectangle is 24 cm.

Perimeter of rectangle is to add the lengths of all the four sides.

Perimeter of rectangle (P) is given by;

P=2(l+w)

Substituting the value of P = 24 cm , l = (x+3) cm and w = $\frac{1}{2} x$

then,

$24 = 2 (x+3+\frac{1}{2} x)$

Divide by 2 both sides of an equation;

$12 = x+3+\frac{1}{2}x$

Combine like terms;

$12 =\frac{3x}{2} +3$

Subtract 3 from both the sides we get;

$12-3 = \frac{3x}{2} +3-3$

Simplify:

$9 =\frac{3x}{2}$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{2}{3}$ we get

$x = 9 \times \frac{2}{3} = 3 \times 2 = 6$

Therefore, length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) = 6+3 = 9 cm

If the flotation costs are 2 percent of gross proceeds, and gross proceeds are $250,000, what is the dollar amount of flotation

alina1380 [7]

The dollar amount of the flotation costs by percent of gross proceeds is $5,000

We need to know about the percent theory first, percent is per 100. So when A is 1% of B it means that

A = 1/100 x B

From the question, we know that

The gross proceeds is given by = $250,000 and

the flotation cost is given by = 2% of gross proceeds.

We can write the flotation cost as

Flotation cost = 2/100 x $250,000

Flotation cost = 2/100 x $250,000

Flotation cost = $5,000

Hence, the dollar amount of the flotation costs is $5,000
