$slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\4 = \frac{p-2}{1-4} \\\\4 \times -3 = p -2\\\\-12 + 2 = p \\\\p = -10 \\\\Equation \ of \ line : \\\\(y -y_1) = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - 2= 4(x-4)\\\\y - 2 = 4x -16\\\\y = 4x -14$

Hi there! The slope formula is:

$\large \boxed{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }$

We know that the slope is 4 but we are missing the value of p. (Define m = slope)

What we have now are:

two ordered pairs (4,2) and (1,p)value of slope = 4

We are going to substitute these values and solve the equation for p-term.

$\large{4 = \frac{2 - p}{4 - 1} } \\ \large{4 = \frac{2 - p}{3} } \\ \large{4(3) = \frac{2 - p}{3} (3)} \\ \large{12 = 2 - p} \\ \large{p = 2 - 12 \longrightarrow \boxed{p = - 10}}$

Hence, the value of p is -10.

Next, we have to write the equation of a line in point-slope form. The point-slope form is:

$\large \boxed{y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)}$

Define that (x1, y1) = ordered pairs

Since we have two given points, we can either use the first point or second point. Both work.

First Point

For our first ordered pairs (4,2), substitute x1 = 4 and y1 = 2 in the equation.

$\large{y - 2 = 4(x - 4)}$

Hence, the equation of a line in point-slope form as in (4,2) is y-2=4(x-4)

Second Point

For our second ordered pairs (1,p), we know that p = -10 from the equation that we solved. Therefore (1,p) = (1,-10). Substitute x1 = 1 and y1 = -10 in the equation.

$\large{y - ( - 10) = 4(x - 1)} \\ \large{y + 10 = 4(x - 1)}$

Hence, the equation of a line in point-slope form as in (1,-10) is y+10 = 4(x-1)

Answer

The value of p is -10 (p = -10)y - 2 = 4(x-4) —> use (4,2) to form an equation. y + 10 = 4(x-1) —> use (1,-10) to form an an equation.

Both equations work for point-slope form.

i think it is everything has to equal 180 so, if i correct 4=c. 6=d. 8=a. 7=b. and the last question would be c. because they are parallel lines and they are congruent.

step-by-step explanation:

the reason everything has to equal to 180 is because that is how it works. i'm guessing that is its rule. 4 and 8 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 6 and 7 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 60+60 is 180. so, now you have your answer

At a constant it will take one hour to travel 32 mi.at that speed it will take 1/2 hr to travel the remaining 16 mi.it will take 1+1/2 hr to travel the 48mi @ 32mph.so 1 hr = 60 min& 1/2 hr = 30 min1+1/2 hr = 90 min.there are 60s in each 90 × 60 = 3600 seconds.the real question seriously is he why are they driving so slow? ! lol.
