Answer:

y = 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the line shown in your question.

We want to write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the value of y at the y intercept

As we are given the graph of the line, we can pick any 2 points to help us find the equation; in this case, let's take (0,3) and (-1, -1).

First, we need to find the slope of the line

The slope (m) can be found using the equation \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}, where (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) are points

Let's label the values of the points to avoid confusion and mistakes before calculating.

x_1= 0\\y_1=3\\x_2=-1\\y_2=-1

Now substitute these values into the equation for the slope

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-1-3}{-1-0}

Subtract

m=\frac{-4}{-1}

Divide

m = 4

The slope of the line is 4

Here is the equation of the line so far:

y = 4x + b

Now we need to find b

As stated above, b is the value of y at the y intercept; the y intercept is the point where the line intersects with the y axis. The value of x at this point is 0

One of the points we used to calculate the slope was actually the y intercept point; this point is (0, 3). The value of y at this point is 3, so the value of b is 3

Substitute 3 as b in our equation

y = 4x + 3

Mila [183]
To find the equation take the slope 2/3 y-y(1)=m(x-x(1) y-4=2/3(x-8) = 2/3x-16/3 Next solve for y y=2/3x-16/3 +4(turn 4 into a fraction with a common denominator) y=2/3x-16/3 + 12/3 y=2/3x-4/3

URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DUE IN LESS THAN 12 MINS
Anettt [7]

Answer:

28.26m^2 (aka. 28.26 meters squared)

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is A=pi*r^2 where r is the radius of the circle.

Since r=3, then A=pi*3^2=9pi=28.26

Therefore, the area of the merry-go-round is 28.26 square meters

Based on the data given in the picture, calculate the area of the car track...
Verizon [17]

Refer to the diagram below. We need to find the areas of the green and blue regions, then subtract to get the area of the orange track only.

The larger green region is composed of a rectangle of dimensions 200 meters by 4+42+4 = 50 meters, along with two semicircles that combine to make a full circle. This circle has radius 25 meters.

The green rectangle has area 200*50 = 10000 square meters. The green semicircles combine to form an area of pi*r^2 = pi*25^2 = 625pi square meters. In total, the full green area is 10000+625pi square meters. I'm leaving things in terms of pi for now. The approximation will come later.

The blue area is the same story, but smaller dimensions. The blue rectangle has dimensions 200 meters by 42 meters, so its area is 200*42 = 8400 square meters. The blue semicircular pieces combine to a circle with area pi*r^2 = pi*21^2 = 441pi square meters. In total, the blue region has area 8400+441pi square meters.

After we figure out the green and blue areas, we subtract to get the orange region's area, which is the area of the track only.

orange area = (green) - (blue)

track area = (10000+625pi) - (8400+441pi)

track area = 10000+625pi - 8400-441pi

track area = (10000-8400) + (625pi - 441pi)

track area = 184pi + 1600 is the exact area in terms of pi

track area = 2178.05304826052 is the approximate area when you use the pi constant built into your calculator. If you use pi = 3.14 instead, then you'll get 2177.76 as the approximate answer. I think its better to use the more accurate version of pi. Of course, be sure to listen/follow your teachers instructions.

A uniform bar of length l and weight w is attached to a wall with a hinge that exerts a horizontal force hx and a vertical force
maria [59]
The answer is Hx = ½ Wsin θ cos θ
The explanation for this is:
Analyzing the torques on the bar, with the hinge at the axis of rotation, the formula would be: ∑T = LT – (L/2 sin θ) W = 0
So, T = 1/2 W sin θ. Analyzing the force on the bar, we have: ∑fx = Hx – T cos θ = 0Then put T into the equation, we get:∑T = LT – (L/2 sin θ) W = 0

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

22 cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

5 1/2kg = 11/2 = 22/4

22/4 is what you have in sugar while you only need 1/4 per cake, so you can make 22 cakes
