Find the slope of the line.

a. the line containing (6,-2) and (-3,-5)

Answers

The slope of the line containing (6,-2) and (-3,-5) is  (3/8).

The slope of a straight line can be written as follows,

m =  [tex](y_{2} - y_{1} )/(x_{2} - x_{1} )[/tex]                 equation1

The line is containing the points (-3,3) and (4,3). So, we can write

[tex]y_{2}[/tex] = -5 , [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = -2 , [tex]x_{2}[/tex] = -3 , and [tex]x_{1}[/tex] = 6 .

On substituting the values of variables in equation1, we will get

m = ( (-5)-(-2) ) / ( (-3)-(6) ) = (-3/(-8)) = (3/8).

As the slope of a line is (3/8), so we can conclude that the given line is a straight line.

Here:

m = the slope of the line

( [tex]x_{1}[/tex] , [tex]y_{1}[/tex] ) are the first coordinates.

( [tex]x_{2}[/tex] , [tex]y_{2}[/tex] )are the second coordinates.

The slope of the line containing  (6,-2) and (-3,-5) is  (3/8).

Actually, there is nothing that sets one apart from the other. All of them include jets, bubbles, and frequently different colored lights and other decorations. They are all sizable hot water containers. Overall, the terms "whirlpool bath," "Jacuzzi," and "hot tub" all refer to the same thing.

The first five terms of the sequence an =5 n-3 are 2, 7, 12, 17  and 22.

According to the question.

We have a formula or a rule for finding the terms of a sequence i.e.

an = 5n -3.

The first term of the sequnence an = 5n - 3 is given by

a(1) = 5(1) -3 = 5 -3 = 2

The second term of the sequence an = 5n - 3 is given by

a(2) = 5(2) - 3 = 10 - 3 = 7

The third term of the sequence an = 5n -3 is given by

a(3) = 5(3) - 3 = 15 - 3 = 12

The fourth term of the sequence an = 5n - 3 is given by

a(4) = 5(4) - 3 = 20 - 3 = 17

The fifth term of the sequence an = 5n - 3 is given by

a(5) =  5(5) - 3 = 25 - 3 = 22

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line passing through each pair of points.

a. (2,5) and (6,7)

Answers

5 = (1/2)2 + 4 is an equation in intercept form for the line passing through the points (2,5) and (6,7)

What is a slope of line?

A line's steepness and direction are determined by the slope of the line. Without actually using a compass, determining a line's slope in a coordinate plane allows one to anticipate whether a line is parallel, perpendicular, or not.

The change in a line's y coordinate relative to its change in x coordinate is referred to as the line's slope. Δy is the net change in the y coordinate, while Δx is the net change in the x coordinate.  

Therefore,

m =  y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁ (where m denotes the slope) can be used to express how the y coordinate changes in relation to the x coordinate.

Be aware that tan ∅ = y/x

We also refer to this tan as the line's slope.

We have been asked to write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line passing through (2,5) and (6,7)

First we will find the slope(m)

We know that slope = m = [tex]\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

For the pairs of points (2,5) and (6,7)

⇒ m = [tex]\frac{7- 5}{6 - 2}[/tex]

⇒ m = [tex]\frac{2}{4 }[/tex]

⇒ m = 1/2

We know that the equation for slope(m) and y - intercept(b) of a line is given by :

y = mx + b

Here lets take equation 5 = (1/2)2 + b .Here x and y is substituted with the first two points.

⇒  5 = (1/2)2 + b

⇒  5 = 1 + b

⇒  b = 5 - 1

⇒  b = 4

The equation in the slope intercept is as follows:-

5 = (1/2)2 + 4

For any correlation, people often assume that change in one quantity causes change in the second quantity. This is not always true. For each situation, do you think that change in the first quantity causes change in the second quantity? What else may have affected the change in the second quantity?
the size of a car's engine and the number of passengers it is designed for

Answers

For the given situation, we can clearly say that the change in one quantity will cause a change in the second quantity as well.

With an increase in the size of the car engine the power the engine will ultimately increase as well. This increased power can easily accommodate more people. So we can make relation from this deduction,

Engine size ∝ Number of People

This clearly states that by increasing one quantity we will increase the other quantity as well.

Similarly, now that they have a direct relation if we decrease the size of the engine, its power will decrease as well and hence the number of people will decrease.

A strong positive correlation we can call it.

ABC and D are four towns
B is 25km due east of A
C is 25km due north of A
D is 45km due south of A

work out the bearing of B from C ​

Answers

Answer:

213.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

The bearing of B from D is angle ADB, which is ∠ADB = arctan(30/45)

≈ 33.7°

The bearing of D from B is that angle plus 180°, so is 180° +33.7° = 213.7°

Answer:

225°

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a bearing is defined as an angle measured clockwise from north.

See attached graph for a clearer guide to the explanations

Angle ABC is a right isosceles triangle with AB = 25 and AC = 25

m∠BAC =90°

So m∠ABC = m∠ACB = 45°

The angle at BC is 45° from the North (90°-45°)  measured clockwise is 45° so we say the bearing from C to B is 045°  (we use 3 digits for bearing)

The bearing from B to C on the other hand is determined by adding 180° to the bearing in the opposite direction (C to B) so the bearing from C to B is 180° +045° = 225°

(Here I am not sure whether you are supposed to answer the question in mathematical meaning of bearing or just state the direction in which BC lies relative to north. 45° clockwise from the North is in a NE direction so we can say C is NE from B but I am guessing that's not it)
