The equation of the line that passes through the points (-6 , 2) and (-4 , -1) is 3x + 2y = -14 .

In the question ,

two points are given as (-6 , 2) and (-4 , -1) .

we need to find the equation of the line passing through the given points .

to find the equation First we need to find the slope ,

slope = (-1-2)/(-4-(-6))

slope = -3/(-4 + 6)

slope = -3/2

So , the equation of the line passing through the point (-6 , 2) with slope -3/2 is

(y - 2) = (-3/2)(x - (-6))

y - 2 = (-3/2)(x + 6)

y - 2 = (-3/2)x - 9

y = (-3/2)x - 9 + 2

y = (-3/2)x - 7

2y = -3x - 14

3x + 2y = -14

Therefore , The equation of the line that passes through the points (-6 , 2) and (-4 , -1) is 3x + 2y = -14 .

The given question is incomplete , the complete question is

Write the equation for the line that passes through the point (-6, 2) and (-4,-1) , write the answer in fully reduced form .

On a map, 9 cm represents 15 miles. If the distance between two cities on the map is 15 cm, how many miles separate the cities?

torisob [31]

Answer:

15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

On a map, 9 cm represents 15 miles.

The distance between two cities is 15 cm. We need to find the distance in miles.

9 cm = 15 miles

$1\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\ \miles$

So, 15 cm is equal to,

$15\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\times 15\ miles\\\\=25\ miles$

So, 15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

1,Justin rides his bicycle 2.5 kilometers to school. Luke walks 1,950 meters to school.How much farther does Justin ride to scho

kirill [66]

1. A. 550 meters.
this is because 2.5 km = 2500 meters, since there are 1000 meters in one kilometer.
therefore, 2500 - 1950 = 550 meters.
2. B. 126 inches.
this is because there are 12 inches in one foot, so we multiply 12 by 10 since there are 10 full feet. this leaves us with 120. then, we add half a foot, which is 6 inches. therefore, it is 126 :)

What is the oblique asymptote of the function f(x) x^2+x-2/x+1

Mamont248 [21]

$f(x)=\displaystyle\frac{x^2+x-2}{x+1}=\frac{x(x+1)-2}{x+1}=x-\frac{2}{x+1}
$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\left\{f(x)-x \right\}=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{2}{x+1}=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{\displaystyle\frac{2}{x}}{1+\displaystyle\frac{1}{x}}
=0$

Consequently, t<span>he limit of $f(x)$ as x approaches infinity is $x$ .

In other words, $f(x)$ approaches the line y=x,
</span><span>
so oblique asymptote is y=x.
