Answer 4

For the part of the question, they're asking whether the slope exists or is it undefined? You know that the slope measures the steepness of a line. Slope is the ratio of how much the line rises to how much it runs. In other words, it's the amount of rise divided by the amount of run, determined by any two points on the line. Think of slope more intuitively. Imagine a surface you can walk across or on. For example, imagine a tightrope walker. Let's assume the rope is taught and does not bend at all. The rope is horizontally tied between two points. Regardless of the positions A and B on the rope, the rope is flat and has no Rise, however you walk across from point A to point B, so there is a horizontal distance (Run). Hence we have zero Rise and a Run. Zero divided by any quantity is still zero. Thus the slope that the tightrope walker walks across has a measurement of zero. Therefore the slope of any horizontal line is zero. Now imagine the same rope tied down a wall, From a point on the top of the wall to a point the bottom of the wall. Assuming the wall is completely horizontal, there is a Rise but no Run and it would be nearly impossible to walk on the wall. Hence the there is a Rise but the Run is zero. Any quantity divided by zero is undefined. Therefore the slope of any vertical surface is undefined. Now imagine that the rope is tied at a point from the base of one building to a building across from it, to a window some stories up. Now the rope is in a diagonal position. Between any two points on the rope there will be a non-zero Rise and a non-zero Run. Therefore the slope of any diagonal line will be the amount of Rise divided by the amount of Run measured by any two points taken on the rope. The mathematical formula to calculate slope is, if two specific points\[A(x _{1},y _{1}) and B(x _{2},y _{2})\]are known, is\[m =\frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]

Answer 5

*The first sentence should start For the first part of the question...

Answer 6

it is b

Answer 7

Noooo...How do you get b. Option b is listed as undefined. Did you not read what I wrote about what type of lines are undefined?

Answer 8

10

Answer 9

What type of lines have undefined slope? The answer is in my explanation.

Answer 10

What is 10? the slope? No! Show me your calculations.

Answer 11

Did you even read it or are you being lazy? This is your question. I'm here to teach you so please do your part. If you still don't understand after having made the effort to at least read my explanation and comprehend it, then simply tell me where you still have any doubts and I will be glad to clear them up for you.

Answer 12

[m=y(y-1)/\pi(\pi-1)\]

Answer 13

HUH?

Answer 14

OK can you at least provide me with two points on the line?

Answer 15

i took m=(y2-y1)/(π2-π1)

Answer 16

Can you name any two exact points on the line? How about the x-intercept and the y-intercept. They're exact points on the line?

Answer 17

Which two points did you use?

Answer 18

For example, do you see that (5, 0) and (0, 8) are two specific points on the given line? Do you see that?

Answer 19

yes

Answer 20

OK so then what do you get when you apply the formula?

Answer 21

y = 8-(8 x)/5

Answer 22

I don't think I can help if you cant follow the insanely easy directions that were given
two point
(x_1, y_1) and (x_0,y_0) slope = (y_1-y_0)/(x_1-x_0)
you have the two points....(5,0) and (0,8)
y_1 = 8, y_0 = 0, x_1 = 0 x_0 = 5

Answer 23

I see you are trying to solve fot x and y or something.

Answer 24

don't, you should have no x or y
if I have the points (1,1)(3,6) then slope = (6-1)/(3-1)

Answer 25

y_1 = 8, y_0 = 0

Answer 26

If the first y is 0 and the second y is 8. Then 8 - 0 = 8. Similarly the second x is 0 and the first x is 5. Then 0 - 5 = -5. Thus the slope of the line is -8/5.

Answer 27

ok what is 8-0?

Answer 28

now do the same thing for x_1 and x_0

Answer 29

then divide the first one by the second one

Answer 30

5/2 or 2 1/2

Answer 31

8-0 = 5?

Answer 32

Again, If the first y is 0 and the second y is 8, then 8 - 0 = 8. Similarly the second x is 0 and the first x is 5. Then 0 - 5 = -5. Thus what is the slope of the line?

Answer 33

im lost im dumb

Answer 34

im half seep it 4.42 am in ga

Answer 35

No, please do not say that. No one is Dumb.

Answer 36

Reading back my detailed explanation, I found a couple of things that I wanted to clarify, hence here below is the edited version.

For the part of the question, they're asking whether the slope exists or is it undefined? You know that the slope measures the steepness of a line. Slope is the ratio of how much the line rises to how much it runs. In other words, it's the amount of rise divided by the amount of run, determined by any two points on the line. Think of slope more intuitively. Imagine a surface you can walk across or on. For example, imagine a tightrope walker. Let's assume the rope is taught and does not bend at all. The rope is horizontally tied between two points. Regardless of the positions A and B on the rope, the rope is flat and has no Rise, however you walk across from point A to point B, so there is a horizontal distance (Run). Hence we have zero Rise and a non-zero Run. Zero divided by any non-zero quantity is still zero. Thus the slope that the tightrope walker walks across has a measurement of zero. Therefore the slope of any horizontal line is zero. Now imagine the same rope tied down a wall, From a point on the top of the wall to a point on the bottom of the wall. Assuming the wall is completely vertical, there is a Rise but no Run and it would be nearly impossible to walk on the wall. Hence there is a Rise but the Run is zero. Any non-zero quantity divided by zero is undefined. Therefore the slope of any vertical surface is undefined. Now imagine that the rope is tied at a point from the base of one building to a building across from it, to a window some stories up. Now the rope is in a diagonal position. Between any two points on the rope there will be a non-zero Rise and a non-zero Run. Therefore the slope of any diagonal line will be the amount of Rise divided by the amount of Run measured by any two points taken on the rope. The mathematical formula to calculate slope is, if two specific points \[A(x _{1},y _{1})andB(x _{2},y _{2})\]are known, is\[m =\frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]

Answer 37

Look, given A(5, 0) and B(0, 8),\[m =\frac{ 8-0 }{ 0-5 }\]\[m =-\frac{ 8 }{ 5 }\]∴ the slope of the given line is -8/5.


Please tell me you understand?

Answer 38

ok

Answer 39

OK meaning you understand?

Answer 40

i tink i do

Answer 41

Good! Now can you answer the second part of the question?

Answer 42

ok a is -8/5

Answer 43

Yes but now for the second question, what do you think the answer is? Look carefully. Think.

Answer 44

im think it is b or c

Answer 45

One of those is correct. Analyze the graph carefully and tell me which one and why?

Answer 46

it b

Answer 47

OK but why do you think it's b?

Answer 48

it runing down

Answer 49

Ok I'll take that response, even though I know you can do much better. If you observe the two points (8, 0) and (0, 5) from left to right on the graph respectively, you see that it falls 8 units from the point (0, 8) and then runs t the right 5 units to the point (5, 0). The fall of 8 units is what accounts for the negative slope.

Answer 50

Therefore yes, the answer is b, to the second question.
