"31-inch piece of steel is cut into three pieces"
Call the pieces a,b,c
a + b + c = 31
"second piece is twice as long as the first piece"
b = 2a
"third piece is one inch more than seven times the length of the first piece"
c = 1 + 7a
Ok, we have our equations, let's substitute the second and third into the first.
a + 2a + 1 + 7a = 31
10a + 1 = 31
10a = 30
a = 30/10 = 3
b = 2a = 6
c = 1 + 7a = 22
Check: 3 + 6 + 22 = 31, good
Answer: 3 inches, 6 inches, 22 inches
Find two points on the graph that the line crosses through almost perfectly. It looks like (1,10) and (9,1) will do.
Use them to compute the slope:
m = (1 - 10) / (9 - 1)
= -9/8
Then set up the "point-slope form":
y - y0 = m * (x - x0)
You choose some point (x0, y0) that the line crosses through. We already know the line passes through (1,10) pretty well, so let's use that.
x0 = 1
y0 = 10
Now finish plugging into the equation:
y - 10 = -9/8 * (x - 1)
The above equation will work fine for an answer, but let's go a step further and solve for y.
y - 10 = -9/8x + 9/8
y = -9/8x + 9/8 + 10
y = -9/8x + 9/8 + 80/8
y = -9/8x + (9 + 80)/8
y = -9/8x + 89/8
Answer: 1/2
do you have a unit circle?
Step-by-step explanation:
When graphs are plotted, graphs as in the .jpeg image in attachment are obtained.
First graph is line going through ordered pair (point) (0,6) and pair (6,8).
The second graph is line going through ordered pair (6,8) and pair (8,0).
Intercept of these graphs is point (ordered pair) (6,8).
You see from the .jpeg image that the following is true:
Initial velocity of the runner is 6 meters per second (runner starts with this velocity), for a while he runs, velocity grows, then in the 6th second (time=6), runner starts to slow down and velocity starts to decrease, and runner stops totally at time = 8.
So runner stops after 8 seconds.
The 4th claim (sentence) is correct.
