Answer:

-8/7

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3, 6) & (4,-2)

To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Plug in these values:

(-2 - 6) / (4 - (-3))

Simplify the parentheses.

= (-2 - 6) / (4 + 3)

= -8 / 7

Simplify the fraction.

= -8/7

This is your slope.

Hope this helps!

Determine which set of side measurements could be used to form a right triangle.

musickatia [10]

The set of side measurements that could be used to form a right triangle is 3, 4 and 5 option (D) is correct.

What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees and the other two are sharp angles. The sides of a right-angled triangle are known as the hypotenuse, perpendicular, and base.

It is given that:

The side length of the triangle is shown in the option:

As we know,

Pythagoras' theorem is the square of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Using Pythagoras' theorem:

From option(D):

3, 4 and 5

(3)² + (4)² = 5²

9 + 16 = 25 (True)

Thus, the set of side measurements that could be used to form a right triangle is 3, 4 and 5 option (D) is correct.

Which system of equations can you use to find the roots of the equation? x3 – 10x = x2 – 6 y = x3 – x2 + 10x + 6 y = 0 y = x3 –

Maslowich

Answer:

answer is:

$y=x^{3}-10 x,y=x^{2}-6$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are asked to find which system of equations can we use to find the roots of the equation:

$x^{3}-10x=x^{2}-6$

since the system of equation in last part is given as:

$y=x^{3}-10 x,y=x^{2}-6$

so, on equating both the equations i.e. on equating both the values of 'y' we get the desired equation as:

$x^{3}-10x=x^{2}-6$ .

Which is equivalent to 5(a + 6)? 1. a+30 2. 5a-30 3. 5a+6 4. 5a+30

Afina-wow [57]

Answer: the answer is number four.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>because when you take five multiply by A (5*a) you will get 5a and when you take five multiply by six (5*6) you will get 30 and there is positive sign so the plus (+) stays the same and your will be (5a+30) that is your answer. good luck.</h2>

Proofs and congruent triangles ( serious full answers only or 1 star and report )

krok68 [10]

Answer:

There are 5 ways to find if two triangles are congruent.

SSS- {Side Side Side Congruence.}

This law of congruence states that if we have two triangles, each with the same measures on each 3 sides it deems the triangles congruent.

SAS- {Side Angle Side Congruence.}

This law of congruence states that if we have two triangles, with 2 equal sides and one angle which is common among them; the triangles are congruent.

ASA- {Angle Side Angle Congruence.}

This law of congruence states that if we have two triangles, with 2 congruent angle measures and 1 congruent side; the triangles are indeed congruent.

AAS- {Angle Angle Side Congruence.}

You may be wondering how this law of congruence differs from the previous one. ASA refers to any two angles and the included side, whereas AAS refers to the two corresponding angles and the non-included side.

HL- {Hypotenuse Leg Congruence.}

This law of congruence states that if we have two triangles, with a common (congruent) leg and hypotenuse; the triangles are congruent.

I really hoped this helped, if it didn't leave a comment I am always open to feedback. If it did let me know, brainiest is always appreciated!

Hope you have a great rest of your day.
