Answer:

The slope is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the line crossing over at -7 on the x-axis and 10 crossing over on the y-axis, you're able to form the two points. (-7, 0) & (0, 10).
0 - -7 = 7 & 10 - 0 = 10, so you get 10/7

The slope will be y = 10/7x + 10, therefore it's positive.

The line is positive

The line is positive because it slants to the right.

It wouldve been negative if it slanted to the left.

In Exercises 15 and 16, tell whether the triangle with the given side

15. 10 cm, 10 cm, V200 cm : Right Angled Triangle

16. 9 in., 16 in., 25 in. : Not a right angled triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to check whether the given sides form a right angled triangle, we check if the sum of squares of two shorter sides is equal to the square of third longest side.

15. 10 cm, 10 cm, V200 cm

$The\ shorter\ sides\ are\ 10cm\ and\ 10cm\\Let \\a=10\\b=10\\c=\sqrt{200}So,\\c^2=a^2+b^2\\(\sqrt{200})^2=(10)^2+(10)^2\\200 = 100+100\\200 = 200$

The triangle is a right angled triangle.

16. 9 in., 16 in., 25 in.

Here

a = 9 in

b=16 in

c=25 in

So,

$c^2=a^2+b^2\\(25)^2=(9)^2+(16)^2\\625=81+256\\625=337$

The given triangle is not a right angled triangle.
