Answer:

5x + y = -28

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given that a line has a slope of -5 and contains the point (-4, -8)

We want to write the equation of this line in standard form

Standard form is given as ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients, but a and b cannot be zero, and a cannot be negative

Before we write the equation in standard form however, we need to write it in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope & b is the y intercept

As we are already given the slope, we can immediately plug that in for m in y=mx+b

y=-5x+b

Now to find b:

As the equation passes through the point (-4, -8), we can use its values to help solve for b

Substitute -4 as x and -8 as y:

-8 = -5(-4) + b

Multiply

-8 = 20 + b

Subtract 20 from both sides

-8 = 20 + b

-20  -20

__________

-28 = b

substitute -28 as b

y = -5x - 28

We found the equation in slope-intercept form, but remember, we want it in standard form

In standard form, both x and y are on the same side; so, let's move 5x to the other side; to do this, we need to add 5x to both sides

y = -5x - 28

+5x +5x

_________

5x + y = -28

Hope this helps!

Find the volume of a cylinder with height 14.7 cm and diameter 10.5 cm.
velikii [3]

Hello!

The volume of a cylinder is found by using the formula: V = πr²h.

The problem has given us the height of the cylinder, which is 14.7 centimeters, and the diameter which is 10.5 centimeters. The volume of a cylinder requires the radius, so therefore, to find the radius, divide the diameter by half, and that will give the radius.

R = 10.5 / 2

R = 5.25 centimeters

With that radius and the height, we can find the volume of the cylinder.

V = π(5.25)²(14.7)

V = 27.5625(14.7)π

V = 405.17π, 1272.23 (multiplied by 3.14), 1272.88 (multiplied by π)

Therefore, the volume of this cylinder is 1272.88 centimeters³.
