Find the slope of the line passing through the two points (-2,1) (6,-1)

Mathematics

Answer:

-1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the formula:

\frac{y₂ -y₁}{x₂ -x₁}

plugging in we have

\frac{ (- 1)-(1)}{(6) -( - 2)}  =  \frac{ - 2}{8}  =  -  \frac{1}{4}

Therefore our slope is -1/4

For each diagram, describe a translation, rotation, or reflection that takes line ℓ to line ℓ′. Then plot and label A′ and B′, t
inn [45]

Answer:

  1. translate down 3
  2. reflect across the horizontal line through A

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There are many transformations that will map a line to a parallel line. Translation either horizontally or vertically will do it. Reflection across a line halfway between them will do it, as will rotation 180° about any point on that midline.

In the first attachment, we have elected to translate the line down 3 units.

__

2. Again, there are many transformations that could be used. Easiest is one that has point A as an invariant point, such as rotation CW or CCW about A, or reflection horizontally or vertically across a line through A.

Any center of rotation on a horizontal or vertical line through A can also be used for a rotation that maps one line to the other.

In the second attachment, we have elected to reflect the line across a horizontal line through A.

A student wants to construct the inscribed circle of a triangle. What is the first step she should take?
Leviafan [203]
D) construction of the angle bisector.
So if you have a triangle that is not equilateral the perpendicular bisectors would not work so you need angle bisectors.
I have drawn a diagram
The green is the angle bisectors and the yellow the perpendicular bisectors.
You can see the problem straight away

5x-2y=11 and 3x+4y=4<br>Find the value of x and y in equation.​
nadya68 [22]
  • 5x-3y=11---(1)
  • 3x+4y=4---(2)

(1)×3 and (2)×5

  • 15x-9y=33-(3)
  • 15x+20y=20-(4)

Subtract both

\\ \sf\longmapsto -29y=13

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=\dfrac{-13}{29}

  • Put in eq(1)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5x+\dfrac{-117}{29}=11

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5x=11+\dfrac{117}{29}=\dfrac{261+117}{29}=\dfrac{278}{29}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{278}{145}
