The slope indicates the rate,
measured in words per minute.
For example,
540 words in 3 minutes give us
When divided by 3, we find 180 words per minute.

Thea=180wpm
Eleanor=225wpm

It’s clear that Eleanor reads faster than Thea.

Calculating for Eleanor: 225*2=450.


The findings are:
Thea reads at 180 words per minute.

Eleanor manages 450 words every two minutes.

After reading for one hour, Eleanor reads a greater number of words than Thea.

Match each pair of points to the equation of the line that is parallel to the line passing through the points.
Svet_ta [12734]

It's known that

When two lines are parallel, their slopes are identical.

The slope between any two points can be calculated using the following formula:


m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}


We will calculate the slope for each case to find the solution to the problem.

Case A) Point B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)

Determine the slope of BC

Insert the values into the formula:

m=\frac{-5-2}{7-5}


m=\frac{-7}{2}


m=-3.5


Thus,

The equation y=-3.5x-15 is parallel to the line that goes through the points B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)

Therefore,

the result for Part A) is

B(5,2)\ C(7,-5) ------> y=-3.5x-15

Case B) Point D(11,6)\ E(5,9)

Calculate the slope of DE

Plug the values into the formula:

m=\frac{9-6}{5-11}


m=\frac{3}{-6}


m=-0.5


Thus,

The equation y=-0.5x-3 is parallel to the line that goes through the points D(11,6)\ E(5,9)

Therefore,

the result for Part B) is

D(11,6)\ E(5,9) ------> y=-0.5x-3

Case C) Point F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)

Determine the slope of FG

Insert the values into the formula:

m=\frac{-8-12}{3+7}

m=\frac{-20}{10}


m=-2


Thus,

Any linear equation with slope m=-2 will be parallel to the line through the points F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)

Case D) Point H(4,4)\ I(8,9)

Calculate the slope of HI

Substitute the values in the formula:

m=\frac{9-4}{8-4}


m=\frac{5}{4}


m=1.25


Thus,

The equation y=1.25x+4 is parallel to the line through the points H(4,4)\ I(8,9)

Therefore,

the result for Part D) is

H(4,4)\ I(8,9) ------> y=1.25x+4

Case E) Point J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)

Determine the slope of JK

Insert the values into the formula:

m=\frac{8-2}{-9-7}


m=\frac{6}{-16}


m=-0.375


Thus,

Any linear equation characterized by slope m=-0.375 will be parallel to the line that runs through the points J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)

Case F) Point L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)

Find the slope of LM

Substitute the values in the formula:

m=\frac{-12+7}{4-5}


m=\frac{-5}{-1}


m=5


Thus,

The equation y=5x+19 is parallel to the line connecting the points L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)

Therefore,

the result for Part F) is

L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12) ------> y=5x+19

Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

Please refer to the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sarah, Jose, and you all reside on the same street:

The distance between you and Jose is 5 blocks

The distance between Jose and Sarah is 2 blocks

Calculating the distance (b) between you and Sarah:

Since it is not specified if Sarah is closer to you or to Jose;

Thus;

Distance b from you to Sarah will be:

(The distance to Jose ± the distance to Sarah)

b = (5 ± 2)

b = (5 + 2) or (5 - 2)

b = 7 blocks or 3 blocks

In isosceles △ABC (AC = BC) with base angle 30° CD is a median. How long is the leg of △ABC, if sum of the perimeters of △ACD an
Leona [12618]

Important details about isosceles triangle ABC:

  • The median CD, which is drawn to the base AB, also acts as an altitude to that base in the isosceles triangle (CD⊥AB). This indicates that triangles ACD and BCD are congruent right triangles, each with hypotenuses AC and BC.
  • In isosceles triangle ABC, the sides AB and BC are equal, meaning AC=BC.
  • The base angles at AB are equal, m∠A=m∠B=30°.

1. Consider the right triangle ACD. The angle adjacent to side AD is 30°, which dictates that the hypotenuse AC is double the length of the opposite side CD relating to angle A.

AC=2CD.

2. Now, for right triangle BCD, the angle next to side BD is also 30°, so hypotenuse BC is twice the opposite leg CD linked to angle B.

BC=2CD.

3. To calculate the perimeters of triangles ACD, BCD, and ABC:

P_{ACD}=AC+CD+AD=2CD+CD+AD=3CD+AD;

P_{BCD}=BC+CD+BD=2CD+CD+AD=3CD+AD;

P_{ABC}=AC+BC+AB=2CD+2CD+AD+BD=4CD+2AD.

4. If the total of the perimeters of triangles ACD and BCD is 20 cm greater than the perimeter of triangle ABC, then

P_{ACD}+P_{BCD}=P_{ABC}+20,\\ \\3CD+AD+3CD+AD=4CD+2AD+20,\\ \\6CD+2AD=4CD+2AD+20,\\ \\2CD=20.

5. Given that AC=BC=2CD, the lengths of legs AC and BC of the isosceles triangles are 20 cm.

Answer: 20 cm.

Svet_ta [12734]
For the blue marbles:
16 = 8 * 2 (8 sets containing 2 marbles each)
For the white marbles:
8 = 4 * 2 (4 sets with 2 in each)
8 + 4 = 12
Answer:
The maximum number of groups that Colton can form is 12.
