Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (7,2) and (10,-5).
Give your answer in its simplest form.​

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Two end points of a line segment are (7,2) and (10,-5).

To find:

The gradient of the given line segment.

Solution:

We know that, gradient of a line segment is the slope of that line segment.

The end points of the line segment are (7,2) and (10,-5), so slope or gradient of the line segment is

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{-5-2}{10-7}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{-7}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the gradient of the given line segment is [tex]\dfrac{-7}{3}[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

y=32x shows a proportional relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an equation that shows the proportional relationship.

If x and y are proportional to each other, it will look like,

y = mx

Where

m is constant of proportionality

Out of 4 option, option (4) is y=32x, it shows the proportional relationship where the value of m is equal to 32.

The equation that represents a proportional relationship is y = 32x

What is a proportional relationship?

25x^3+5x^2+30x+6=0 solve

Answers

answer: x is equal to -1/5

Answer:

x = -1/5, x = i sqrt(30)/5,  x = -i sqrt(30)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

25x^3 + 5x^2 + 30x + 6 = 0

5x^2(5x + 1) + 6(5x + 1) = 0

(5x + 1)(5x^2 + 6) = 0

5x + 1 = 0

5x = -1

x = -1/5

5x^2 + 6 = 0

5x^2 = -6

x^2 = -6/5

x = +/- sqrt(-6/5)

x = +/- i * sqrt(30)/5

x = i sqrt(30)/5 or x = -i sqrt(30)/5

What is the perimeter of this triangle?
(-4,5)
(8,5)
(8,-4)
A. 36 units
В.
39 units
33 units
D
42 units

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of triangle = 12 + 9 + 15

                                   = 36 units

Therefore, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points

(-4, 5)(8, 5)(8, -4)

From the table, it is clear the side containing the line segment joining the points (-4, 5) and (8, 5) is a straight horizontal line.

Thus, the length of the horizontal distance from the points (-4, 5) and (8, 5) will be:

8-(-4) = 12 units

From the table, it is clear the side containing the line segment joining the points (8, 5) and (8, -4) is a straight vertical line.

Thus, the length of the vertical distance from the points (8, -4) and (8, 5) will be:

5-(-4) = 9

Now, finding the length of the side containing the segment (8, -4) and (-4, 5) using the formula:

[tex]\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{\left(-4-8\right)^2+\left(5-\left(-4\right)\right)^2}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{\left(-4-8\right)^2+\left(5+4\right)^2}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{12^2+9^2}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{144+81}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{225}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{15^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt[n]{a^n}=a[/tex]

[tex]=15[/tex]

We know that the Perimeter of a rectangle is the length of all the sides of the triangle. Therefore, combining all the lengths of the line segments

Thus,

Perimeter of triangle = 12 + 9 + 15

                                   = 36 units

Therefore, option A is correct.

ABC has A(-3,6),B(2,1),and C(9,5) as its vertices the length of side AB is units . The length of side BC is ?units . The length of side AC is ? Units .ABC ?

Answers

Answer:

The length of side AB is [tex]\sqrt{50}[/tex] units.

The length of side BC is [tex]\sqrt{65}[/tex] units.

The length of side AC is [tex]\sqrt{145}[/tex] units.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of each side, we use the formula for the distance between two points.

Distance between two points:

Points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]. The distance between them is given by:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Side AB:

Points [tex]A(-3,6),B(2,1)[/tex]. So the distance between them is:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(2-(-3))^2 + (1-6)^2} = \sqrt{50}[/tex]

The length of side AB is [tex]\sqrt{50}[/tex] units.

Side BC:

Points [tex]C(9,5),B(2,1)[/tex]. So the distance between them is:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(2-9)^2 + (1-5)^2} = \sqrt{65}[/tex]

The length of side BC is [tex]\sqrt{65}[/tex] units.

Side AC:

Points [tex]A(-3,6),C(9,5)[/tex]. So the distance between them is:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(9-(-3))^2 + (5-6)^2} = \sqrt{145}[/tex]

The length of side AC is [tex]\sqrt{145}[/tex] units.

Write a equation in slope intercept form

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x-8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is organized in the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Because we're already given the values, we just have to plug them into the equation.

[tex]y=mx+b\\y=\frac{1}{2} x+(-8)\\y=\frac{1}{2} x-8[/tex]

To graph this equation, first plot a point at (0, -8). This is because the y-intercept is -8, meaning that the line crosses the y-axis when y=-8.

Then, plot the next point using the slope. The slope is equal to the rise/run of the line, or the number of units the line travels upwards / the number of units the line travels to the right. Because the slope is 1/2, we know that for every 2 units a point travels to the right, it goes up by 1 unit.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles triangle, by definition two of the three sides of the triangle are equal to one another. Therefore, the angles opposite to these sides must also be equal. And considering the Triangle Sum Theorem, the angles of a triangle must add up to 180 degrees, the angle that measures 124 degrees cannot be be equal to another angle due to the fact that the sum of them would exceed 180. Therefore let x be the angle:

124+2x=180

2x=56x=28

There are some people in a cinema.
3/5 of the people in the cinema are children
For the children in the cinema,
Number of girls:number of boys = 2:7
Their are 170 girls in the cinema
Work out the number of adults

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Adults = 510[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Children = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Girls:Boys = 2 : 7[/tex]

[tex]Girls = 170[/tex]

Required

Determine the number of adults

First, we need to calculate the number of children

[tex]Girls:Boys = 2 : 7[/tex]

Given that: [tex]Girls = 170[/tex]

Substitute 170 for Girls in [tex]Girls:Boys = 2 : 7[/tex]

[tex]170 : Boys = 2 : 7[/tex]

Convert to fraction

[tex]\frac{170}{Boys} = \frac{2}{7}[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]Boys * 2 = 170 * 7[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]Boys = \frac{170 * 7}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Boys = \frac{1190}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Boys = 595[/tex]

So, the number of children are:

[tex]Children = Boys + Girls[/tex]

[tex]Children = 595 + 170[/tex]

[tex]Children = 765[/tex]

Next, we calculate the number of people in the cinema.

[tex]Children = \frac{3}{5} * People[/tex]

Substitute 765 for Children

[tex]765 = \frac{3}{5} * People[/tex]

Make People the subject.

[tex]People = \frac{765 * 5}{3}[/tex]

[tex]People = \frac{3825}{3}[/tex]

[tex]People = 1275[/tex]

If 3/5 are children, then 2/5 are adults.

So:

[tex]Adults = \frac{2}{5} * 1275[/tex]

[tex]Adults = \frac{2* 1275}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Adults = \frac{2550}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Adults = 510[/tex]
