You are given the formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
You can pick any two points on table
Let’s choose (9,2) and (3,-2)
Plug in the values into formula
m = (-2-2)/(3-9)
m = -4/-6
Simplify: m = 2/3
Solution: m = 2/3
2 ways
zero product property
easy way
zero product
factor perfect square
m^2-3^2=0
(m-3)(m+3)=0
set each to zero
m-3=0
x=3
m+3=0
m=-3
m=-3 or 3
easy way
add 9 to both sides
m^2=9
sqrt both sides remember to take postive and negative roots
m=+/-3
m=-3 or 3
B is answer
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you would do a proportion
=
Then you would cross multiply, getting 50x=900.
After that, you would do 900/50, which is 18.
