Which of the following is an equation of the line passing through the points (-1, 4) and (1,

y-4 =-1(x+1)  point slope form

y-2 = -1(x-1)

y = -x +3  slope intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 points, we can find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (2-4)/(1--1)

   (2-4)/(1+1)

     -2/2

   =-1

The slope is -1

Then we can use point slope form to find an equation

y-y1 =m(x-x1)

y-4 = -1(x--1)

y-4 =-1(x+1)  point slope form

Using the other point

y-2 = -1(x-1)

Distribute the -1

y-2 = -1x +1

Add 2 to each side

y-2+2 = -x+1+2

y = -x +3  slope intercept form

x² + 3x + 7 = 0       [ax² + bx + c]

a = 1

b = 3

c = 7

quadratic formula:

    (+/- is this ±)

plug in the numbers into the variables

your answer is a

7.9m and 4.3°

step-by-step explanation:

let east be +x and north be +y, x = distance * cos θ, y = distance * sin θ  

for 3.5 south, y = -3.5  

for 8.2, x = 8.2 * cos 30 and y = 8.2 * sin 30  

for 15 west, x = -15  

total x = 8.2 * cos 30 – 15 ≈ -7.9  

total y = -3.5 + 8.2 * sin 30 = 0.6  

magnitude = [(8.2 * cos 30 – 15)^2 + 0.6^2)]^0.5  

the magnitude is approximately 7.9 m  

tan θ = y/x = 0.6/-7.9  

the angle is approximately 4.3˚ north of west
