if we look at the equation y = -2x - 1, is already in slope-intercept form, therefore, 
has a slope of -2.
now, parallel lines have exactly equal slopes, therefore a parallel to that one above, will have also a slope of -2, so we're really looking for a line whose slope is -2 and runs through -1, 7.

First thing you need to do is find your k in y = kx
So to do that insert 18 for x and 6 for y and then solve for k
y = kx
6 = k18
6/18 = k18 /18
1 / 3 = k
k = 1 /3
So now that we know what k is we can find x when y = 10. Once again insert the numbers we know. We know k = 1/3 and y = 10 and we need to find x
y = kx
10 = (1/3)x
3* 10 = 3*(1/3)x
30 = x
x = 30
Answer:
Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean = (61+59+60+50+54+56+61+63)/8
= 464/8
= 58 degrees
Deviations:
61 - 58 = 3
59-58 = 1
60-58 = 2
50-58 = -8 = 8 (absolute value)
54-58= -4 = 4
56-58 = -2 = 2
61-58 = 3
63-58 = 6
MAD = (3+1+2+8+4+2+3+6) / 8
= 3.625
= 3.6 to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
If we need to find the distance between two points on a number line, we subtract one of the points from the other. We then take the absoulte value of the difference. You done this right.
Options A,B and D. The correction about the area of the triangle are
- The apothem can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.
- The apothem can be found using the tangent ratio.
- The length of the apothem is approximately 2.5 cm.
<h3>How to solve for the length of the Apothem using the Pythagoras theorem</h3>
Firstly this is an equilateral triangle
3 of the sides have the length of 8.7cm
b = half of 8.7
= 4.35cm
To get A we have
a² + b² = c²
a² + 4.35² = 5²
When we solve this out we would have
a² = 25 - 18.9225
a ≈ 2.5 cm.
Hence we have proved that the first option is correct.
<u>For B,</u>
In an equilateral triangles, each of the angles = 60 degrees
60/2 = 30 is the angle that is made from the base
<h3>using tangent ratios </h3>
a / 4.35 = tan 30
then a = 4.35 tan 30
This would also give us an approximate of 2.5
For D
The calculations we have done based on the statements in A and B shows that D is correct as 2.5.
