Answer:
d = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a compass to make a circle around both lasers at the same degree and they should over lap. where they over lap use your straight edge to make a direct line from the point where your at through where they cross. that will be your answer, hope i helped.
Since 18 does not have a number that when multiplied by itself equal 18, then it will be a decimal number. You can tell the closest whole number by seeing what is the closest square. In this case we know that 16 is 4 times 4 and the next one would be 5 times 5 to equal 25, so the whole number would be 4.
Now, the easiest way to do this is to get you calculator and take the square root of 18 to get 4.242641. The problem wants it to be to the nearest tenth so 4.2 is your answer. On a number line, if it is in four parts, you will plot it just before the first little line.
Hope this helps! If you are using more small lines in you number line, comment me below and I would be happy to lead you in the right direction.
Answer:
The answer to your question is a) y - 2 = -5(x - 3)
b) y = -5x + 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
A (1, 12)
B (3, 2)
Process
1.- Find the slope
Formula
Substitution
2.- Find the equation in point slope form
Equation
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Substitution and equation
y - 2 = -5(x - 3)
3.- Find the slope-intercept form
Expand the point slope form
y - 2 = -5x + 15
Simplify
y = -5x + 15 + 2
Equation
y = -5x + 17
