The slope of a straight line passing through the points (-4, 2) and (8, 5) is 1/4.
What is Slope of a straight line?
The slope of a straight line measures the rate of change of variable 'y' with respect to independent variable 'x'. Mathematically -
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = tan Ф
Given is a line that passes through the points (-4, 2) and (8, 5).
The slope of a straight line passing through two points is given by -
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
The coordinates given are (-4, 2) and (8, 5).
Substituting them in the formula, we get -
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
m = (5 - 2)/(8 + 4)
m = 3/12
m = 1/4
Therefore, the slope of a straight line passing through the points (-4, 2) and (8, 5) is 1/4.

Find the equation of the line that passes through the following points: (a, b) and (a, b +1 )
Answer:
The equation for the line which passes through the points given as (a, b) and (a, b+1), is x=a, which represents a vertical line.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that a line passes through the points whose coordinates are (a, b) and (a, b+1).
It is asked to find the linear equation which passes through the given points.
To do so, first determine the slope of the given line using the coordinates and the formula for the slope. Accordingly, proceed to find the equation of the given line.
Step 1 of 2
Determine the slope of the line.
The points through which the line passes are given as (a, b) and (a, b+1). Next, the formula for the slope is given as,
[tex]$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$[/tex]
Substitute b+1&b for [tex]$y_{2}$[/tex] and [tex]$y_{1}$[/tex] respectively, and a&a for [tex]$x_{2}$[/tex] and [tex]$x_{1}$[/tex] respectively in the above formula. Then simplify to get the slope as follows,
[tex]m=\frac{b+1-b}{a-a}$\\ $m=\frac{1}{0}$[/tex]
b+1. So the equation of the line cannot be found using the general point-slope form equation.
Step 2 of 2
Write the equation of the line.
So, by definition, the line that passes through the given points is a vertical line. Now, as its x- coordinate is a, so the equation of the line is given as x=a.
Solve the equation f(x)=x3+2x2+4x+8 given that one of its roots is x=−2.
Okay, first you need to understand that function of x, (or f(x)) is y.
We now plug in x.
f(-2) or y=-2(3)+(2•2)+4(-2)+8
f(-2)=-6+4+-8+8
f(-2)=-2
When x=-2, y=-2. Lets plug it back in to see if its true.
-2=-2(3) + (2x2) + (4(-2)) + 8
-2 = -6 + 4 + -8 + 8
-2 = -2.

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through-8,-8) and (7, 9)
Answer:
[tex]y = \frac{17}{15}x + \frac{16}{15}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
So the slope-intercept form is given as: y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (since if you plug in 0 as x, mx will be 0 leaving only b). You can calculate the slope with the slope formula: [tex]slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] which is essentially [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]. So for this example (-8, -8) will be ([tex]x_1, y_1[/tex]) and (7, 9) will be ([tex]x_2, y_2[/tex]).
Plug values into equation:
[tex]\frac{9 - (-8)}{7 - (-8)}[/tex]
cancel out negatives
[tex]\frac{9+8}{7+8}\\[/tex]
Simplify
[tex]\frac{17}{15}[/tex]
The fraction is in the most simplified form unless you want to have a mixed fraction, otherwise you can't do anything else to the fraction.
so now we have the slope we have one part of the equation: [tex]y=\frac{17}{15}x + b[/tex], but now we need to solve for b. This can be done by using either of the points and plugging in x and y, but for this example I'll use (7, 9).
Plug in (7, 9) as (x, y)
[tex]9 = \frac{17}{15}(7) + b[/tex]
Multiply
[tex]9 = \frac{119}{15}+b[/tex]
Subtract
[tex]9-\frac{119}{15}=b[/tex]
Rewrite 9 as a fraction
[tex]\frac{135}{15} - \frac{119}{15} = b[/tex]
Subtract numerators
[tex]\frac{16}{15} = b[/tex]
now we have both pieces of information
[tex]y = \frac{17}{15}x + \frac{16}{15}[/tex]
bill is replacing his 15ft long by 12 ft wide deck. his new deck will add 5 feet to the length and 4 feet to the width. if a drawing of the new deck uses a scale of 1 inch =2.5 feet, fin the dimensions of the deck in the drawing
The dimensions i.e. length and width of the deck in the drawing is 8 and 6.4 inches respectively.
Given that the length of the previous deck = 15 feet
The width of the previous deck = 12 feet
Since the new deck will add 5 feet to the length and 4 feet to the width,
The length of the new deck = 15 + 5 = 20 feet
The width of the new deck = 12 + 4 = 16 feet
Also given that a drawing of the new deck uses a scale of 1 inch = 2.5 feet.
So, The length of the deck in the drawing = 20/2.5 inches = 8 inches
The width of the deck in the drawing = 16/2.5 inches = 6.4 inches
Therefore, the dimensions i.e. length and width of the deck in the drawing is 8 and 6.4 inches respectively.

Number of ways in which 3 positions can be filled are 2730.
What is permutation and combinations?The number of ways in which objects from a set may be selected, generally without replacements, to form subsets. This selection of subset is called permutation when order of selection is a factor.

Now it is given that number of candidates, n = 15
and number of position, r = 3
Hence number of ways positions can be filled-
[tex]P(n,r) =\frac{15!}{(15-3)!}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]P(15,3) =\frac{15!}{12!}[/tex]
⇒ P(15,3) = (15 × 14 × 13)12!/12!
⇒ P(15,3) = (15 × 14 × 13)
⇒ P(15,3) = 2730
∴ Number of ways in which 3 positions can be filled are 2730.

Using the given linear function of best-fit, the most likely approximate height of the plant after 8 weeks would be of 7.4 centimeters.
What is a linear function?A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.The line of best-fit goes through points (0,1) and (5,5). Point (0,1) means that the y-intercept is of b = 1. The slope is given as follows:
m = (5 - 1)/(5 - 0) = 4/5 = 0.8.
Hence the equation that gives the approximate height after x weeks is:
y = 0.8x + 1.
After 8 weeks, the expected height is:

One such measurable metric is speed, which calculates the ratio between the distance an object travels and the time needed to cover that distance. Let's explore speed in-depth in this session. The pace at which an object's location changes in any direction. When an object travels the same distance in the same amount of time, it is said to be moving at a uniform speed. When an object travels a different distance at regular intervals, it is said to have variable speed.We know the formula of distance linking the speed and the time.

The longest possible integer length of the third side of the triangle is 6 < x < 28
The length of the 3 sides of a triangle needs to always be among (however no longer the same) the sum and the difference of the opposite two sides. As an example, take the instance of two, 6, and seven. and. consequently, the third side period should be extra than 4 and less than 8.

In order to determine the system of linear inequalities that satisfy the region R, we would identify the points through which the lines passes through.
For the broken line, we have:
y-intercept = 3.
x-intercept = -3.
Points (x, y) = (0, 3) and (-3, 0).
Since the line is broken (not equal to), the inequality is given by:
y < x - 3.
For the other line, we have:
y-intercept = 5.
x-intercept = -5/2.
Points (x, y) = (0, 5) and (-5/2, 0).
(x/-5/2) + y/5 ≤ 1
-2x + y ≤ 5
y ≤ -2x + 5
For the line passing through the origin, we have:
