What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-10, -8) and
(-8, -16)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope is - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line will be (-16-(-8))/(-8-(-10))=-8/2=-4

Answer 2

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points so we can use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -16 - -8)/(-8 -  -10)

   = (-16+8)/ (-8+10)

   = -8/2

  - 4

Which is the correct slope-intercept equation for a line that passes through the points (1,-3) and (-3,17)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=-5x+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we need to know:

Slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] where two points that the line passes through are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug in the given points (1,-3) and (-3,17)

[tex]=\frac{17-(-3)}{-3-1}\\=\frac{17+3}{-3-1}\\=\frac{20}{-4}\\=-5[/tex]

Therefore the slope of the line is -5. Plug this into [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]:

[tex]y=-5x+b[/tex]

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

[tex]y=-5x+b[/tex]

Plug in one of the given points and solve for b

[tex]-3=-5(1)+b\\-3=-5+b[/tex]

Add 5 to both sides of the equation to isolate b

[tex]-3+5=-5+b+5\\2=b[/tex]

Therefore, the y-intercept of the equation is 2. Plug this back into [tex]y=-5x+b[/tex]:

[tex]y=-5x+2[/tex]

Originally a rectangle has dimensions 12in by 8in. if the same amount increases on both sides, the area is doubled find the new dimensions

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the increase in the size of the length and breath be 'x'.

The area of the rectangle = 12in × 8in

=96 in²

From the question,

(12+x)(8+x)=96×2 in²

or, 96+12x+8x+x²= 192

or, x²+20x+96-192=0

or, x²+20x-96=0

or, x²+24x-4x-96=0

or, x(x+24)-4(x+24)=0

or, (x-4)(x+24)=0

Either, Or,

x-4=0 x+24=0

Therefore, or, x= –24 (Which is impossible)

x=4

So the new dimensions are 12+4=16 inch and 8+4=12 inch.

Write an equation for the line that contains (-15, -8) and is parallel to the
graph -3x + 5y = -8

Answers

Answer:

y=3/5x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the equation -3x+5y=-8 and we want to find the equation of the line that is parallel to -3x+5y=-8 and contains the point (-15,-8)

parallel lines have the same slopes, but different y intercepts.

So let's first find the slope of -3x+5y=-8

We can do this by converting the equation from standard form (ax+by=c where a, b, and c are free coefficients (numbers)) to slope-intercept form (y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

add 3x to both sides

5y=3x-8

divide by 5 on both sides

y=3/5x-8/5

3/5 is in the place of where m is, so that means that 3/5 is the slope of the line

we can write the equation of the new line in slope-intercept form.

Here it is so far:

y=3/5x+b

we need to find b

Because the line will pass through the point (-15,-8), we can use it to solve for b

substitute -15 as x and -8 as y

-8=3/5(-15)+b

multiply

-8=-9+b

add 9 to both sides

1=b

substitute 1 as b into the equation

y=3/5x+1

There's the equation of the line :)

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

A = (a+b)h/2............. Equation 1

Where A = area of the trapezium, a = length of the first parallel side, b = length of the second parallel side, h = height.

From the diagram

Given: a = 5 cm (5 grids), b = 9 cm (9 grids), h = 3 cm (3 grids)

Substitute these values into equation 1

A = 3(5+9)/2

A = 3(14)/2

tan 33° = h / 30.5

h = (tan 33°)(30.5)

Answers

Answer:

let kiran's age be x

kiran's father's age is 65

acc.to ques

kiran's father is 8 years older than 3 times kiran's age ....which gives us the equation as follows

8+3x =65

therefore

3x =65-8

3x =57

x =57/3

x= 19 ans

so kiran's age is 19 years.

Answer:

kiran is 19 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

kiran's father age = 65

let kiran's age be x

kiran's father is 8 years older than three times kiran's age means 8 + 3x

so according to the question equation is

65 =  8 + 3x

65 - 8 = 3x

57/3 = x

19 = x

therefore kiran's age is 19 years.

The graph represents the piecewise function:
f(x)= { __, if -1 ≤ x ≤ 1; __, if 3 ≤ x ≤ 5 }

Answers

Answer:

4, x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The first piece of this function goes from -1 to 1. Since that part of the function is a horizontal line at y=4, and has no slope, this first part is just 4.

The second piece of this function goes from 3 to 5. This piece does have a slope that you can either solve or just from reading the graph will give you a slope of 1. Since one of the points is (3, 2), we can figure out that the y-intercept is -1. (You can also just extend the line across the y-axis). When putting this equation together we get x-1 being the second part.

The solution is:

The graph represents the piecewise function:

f(x)= { 4, if -1 ≤ x ≤ 1;

         (x - 1), if 3 ≤ x ≤ 5 }

What is graph?

In mathematics, the graph of a function f is the set of ordered pairs, where {\displaystyle f(x)=y.} In the common case where x and f(x) are real numbers, these pairs are Cartesian coordinates of points in two-dimensional space and thus form a subset of this plane.

here, we have,

The first piece of this function goes from -1 to 1.

Since that part of the function is a horizontal line at y=4, and has no slope, this first part is just 4.

so, we have,

The second piece of this function goes from 3 to 5.

This piece does have a slope that you can either solve or just from reading the graph will give you a slope of 1.

Since one of the points is (3, 2), we can figure out that the y-intercept is -1. (You can also just extend the line across the y-axis).

When putting this equation together we get x-1 being the second part.

D. a=6x3,6 = 12-/3,c=ba/2

Answers

Answer:

C. a = 6√3, b = 12, c = 6√2

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's find b using the cos. The cos is the adjacent side if the angle divided by the hypotenuse. We know the value of the adjacent side and we know that cos(60°) = 1/2 = 0.5:

cos(60°) = 6/b

0.5 = 6/b

b = 6/0.5

b = 12

Now we can find a using the Pythagorean theorem:

b² = 6² + a²

12² = 6² + a²

144 = 36 + a²

a² = 144 - 36

a² = 108

a = √108

a = 6√3

And now we can find c using cos again:

cos(45°) = c/b

√2/2 = c/12

c = 12•√2/2

c = 6√2

***11. Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is 24° more than the
measure of the other angle.

Answers

Answer:

The angles are 78° and 102°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the one angle is y and the other number if y + 24.

The sum of the angles of the linear pair is 180°.

So, according to the question

y + y + 24 = 180

2 y = 180 - 24

2 y = 156

y = 78°

So, one angle is 78° and the other is 78° + 24° = 102°.
