Answer:

Slope: 2

The slope how much y increases when x increases by 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the difference between both y-coordinates. (6)

2. Find the difference between both x-coordinates. (3)

Divide the difference between y and x. y/x=2

The slope is 2.

Answer:

The slope of line that passes through the points (2, -4) and (5, 2) is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the required formula to find slope line :

{\longrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{m =  \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}}}

As per given question we have provided that :

\begin{gathered}\footnotesize\rm {\underline{\underline{Where}}}\begin{cases}& \sf y_2 = 2\\& \sf y_1 =  - 4\\ & \sf x_2 = 5\\ & \sf x_1 =  2\end{cases} \end{gathered}

Substituting the values in the formula to find slope line that passes through the points :

\begin{gathered}\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m =  \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m =  \dfrac{(2) - ( - 4)}{5 - 2}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{2 + 4}{3}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m =  \dfrac{6}{3}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = 2}}}\\\\\qquad{\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{m = 2}}}}}} \end{gathered}

Hence, the slope of line that passes through the points (2, -4) and (5, 2) is 2.

You randomly pick two numbers from 1 to 9 (including 1 and 9). A number that is chosen once could be chosen again. If at least o
Mnenie [13.5K]
Assume that you only include whole numbers (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) and not 3.5 and such
so if 1 is odd and less than 5 then it is
1 or 3, since 5 isn't included
then the other number, to be less than 5 when added,
must be
1+x<5
3+x<5
solve each
1+x<5
subtract 1
x<4
set of answers are 1,2,3

3+x<5
subtract 3
x<2
set of answer is 1
so the possible numbers are
1,2,3
that is 3 numbesr out of 9 so
probability=(total desired outcomes)/(total possible outcomes) so
disred outcomes=3
total possible=9
3/9=1/3
the probabiltiy is 1/3

What is the value of z?
OLga [1]
Answer:

z = 86

Explanation:

90 - 68 = 12
180 - 78 = 102
102 + 12 = 114
180 - 114 = 86

Ivan

Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadrilateral ABCD has a scale facter of 2.5 over the quadrilateral EFGH. The order of ABCD is 60, 40, 30, and x, EFGH has y, z, 12, and 6.

6 times the scale factor of 2.5 is 15, the answer.

Please help me!! thank you

Answer:

  x = 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

__

The fraction inside parentheses evaluates to ...

  3^(3/4 -3/8) = 3^(3/8)

Then the whole expression evaluates to ...

  (3^(3/8))^(4/9) = 3^((3/8)(4/9)) = 3^(12/72) = 3^(1/6)

The value of x is 1/6.
