What is the slope of this line?(-4,6) (0,8)

1 answer:

3 0

Hey there!

To solve this you must use your slope formula which is y2-y1/x2-x1.

Now, plug in your coordinate point values in place of x and y：
8-6/0-(-4)

Now simplify the expression and if necessary, simplify your slope into simplest fraction form :
8-6/0-(-4)
2/4
2/4=1/2

Therefore, your final answer would be that the slope of this line is 1/2.

Hope this helps!

Is it possible to find a value of $x$ so that the value of the surface area (in square inches) is equal to the value of the volu

Annette [7]

The box has volume

11 in × 3 in × x in = 33x in³

and surface area

2 (11 in × 3 in + 11 in × x in + 3 in × x in) = (66 + 28x) in²

The volume and area have the same value if

33x = 66 + 28x

Solve this equation for x :

33x - 28x = 66

5x = 66

x = 66/5 = 13.2

How to evaluate the limit

anzhelika [568]

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2}\frac{x^2-x+6}{x+2}$

Both the numerator and denominator are continuous at $x=2$ , which means the quotient rule for limits applies:

$\dfrac{\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2}(x^2-x+6)}{\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2}(x+2)}=\dfrac{2^2-2+6}{2+2}=\dfrac84=2$

Perhaps you meant to write that $x\to-2$ instead? In that case, you would have

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-2}\frac{x^2-x+6}{x+2}=\lim_{x\to-2}\frac{(x+2)(x-3)}{x+2}=\lim_{x\to-2}(x-3)=-2-3=-5$

Identify the augmented matrix for the system of equations.

lord [1]

Answer:

The augmented matrix for the system of equations is $\left[\begin{array}{cccc}0&2&-3&1\\7&0&5&8\\4&1&-3&6\end{array}\right]$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

This system consists in three equations with three variables ( $x$ , $y$ , $z$ ).The augmented matrix of a system of equations is formed by the coefficients and constants of the system of linear equations. In this case, we conclude that the system of equations has the following matrix:
