Answer:

y = -2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula = y = mx+c

where m = gradient of the line

and c= y intercept

in the coordinate (4,8), the point where the line intercepts the y axis is 8

this substitute:

y= mx + 8

Gradient = m = -2

Therefore, equation of line= y= -2x +8

Answer:

y = -2x + 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the slope and a point on the line, so

we use the point-slope form of a straight line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Here gradient m = -2, x1 = 4 and y1 = 8 , so we have:

y - 8 = -2(x - 4)

y - 8 = -2x + 8

y = -2x + 16.

The tee for the sixth hole on a golf course is 400 yards from the tee. On that hole, Marsha hooked her ball to the left, as sket
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

  181.8 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines is good for this. It tells you for triangle sides 'a' and 'b' and included angle C, the length of 'c' is given by ...

  c^2 = a^2 +b^2 -2ab·cos(C)

For the given geometry, this is ...

  c^2 = 400^2 +240^2 -2(400)(240)cos(16°) ≈ 33,037.75

  c ≈ √33037.75 ≈ 181.8 . . . yards

Marsha's ball is about 181.8 yards from the hole.

loris [4]

3% is the decimal  0.03 .

To make a number 3% bigger, multiply it by  1.03 .

The ' 1 ' part is the amount that's already there, and
the ' .03 ' part is the amount to be added onto it.
