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

A line contains the points R (-1, 8) S (1, 4) and T (6, y). Solve for y. Be sure to show and explain all work.
Nikitich [7]

Given:

A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y).

To find:

The value of y.

Solution:

Three points are collinear if:

x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_2)+x_3(y_1-y_2)=0

A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y). It means, these points are collinear.

-1(4-y)+1(y-8)+6(8-4)=0

-4+y+y-8+48-24=0

2y+12=0

Subtract 12 from both sides.

2y=-12

Divide both sides by 2.

y=\dfrac{-12}{2}

y=-6

Therefore, the value of y is -6.

We have an equation: 56/? = 4/100

Cross multiply:
4*? = 56*100
⇒ ? = 56*100/4 = 1,400

There are 1,400 blank days~
