Answer:
y = (1/3)x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You first find the slope:
(2 - (-1))/(3 - (-6)) =
3/9 =
1/3
This means the equation of the line is y = (1/3)x + b, where b is a real number.
Plug in either of the points to find the value of b:
-1 = (1/3)(-6) + b -->
-1 = -2 +b -->
1 = b
This means the equation is y = (1/3)x + 1
X=1, x=-7 would be the correct answer.
Circle equation
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
Since radius isn't given use the center and point, with the distance formula, to find the radius.
D=sqrt((x2-x2)^2+)y2-y1)^2)
D=sqrt((1-0)^2+(2-6)^2
D=sqrt(1+16)
D=sqrt 17
radius = sqrt 17
(h, k) is the center and r is the radius
(x - 1)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 17
Answer:
We are given an area and three different widths and we need to determine the corresponding length and perimeter.
The first width that is provided is 4 yards and to get an area of 100 we need to multiply it by 25 yards. This would mean that our length is 25 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(25 + 4) = 58 yards.
The second width that is given is 5 yards and in order to get an area of 100 yards we need to multiply by 20 yards. This would mean that our length is 20 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(20 + 5) = 50 yards.
The final width that is given is 10 yards and in order to get an area of 100 yards we need to multiply by 10. This would mean that our length is 10 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(10 + 10) = 40 yards.
Therefore the field that would require the least amount of fencing (the smallest perimeter) is option C, field #3.
