72% as a fraction is 18/25.

Change 72% into a decimal, which is 0.75.
Then change the decimal into a fraction, 72/100.
Last step is to simplify 72/100 in its lowest form which gets us 18/25.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-3, -2)(−3,−2) and (3, 6)(3,6)? Put your answer in fully reduced
il63 [147K]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation that passes through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope of the line whose rule is m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}
  • b is the y-intercept, you can find it by substituting x, y in the equation by (x1, y1) OR (x2, y2)

Let us solve the question:

∵ The line passes through the points (-3, -2) and (3, 6)

∴ x1 = -3 and x2 = 3

∴ y1 = -2 and y2 = 6

→ Use the rule of m to find it

∵ m=\frac{6-(-2)}{3-(-3)}=\frac{6+2}{3+3}=\frac{8}{6}

→ Simplify it by dividing up and down by 2

∴ m = \frac{4}{3}

→ Substitute its value in the form of the equation above

∴ y = \frac{4}{3} x + b

→ To find b substitute x and y by x1 and y1

∴ -2 = \frac{4}{3} (-3) + b

∴ -2 = -4 + b

→ Add 4 to both sides

∴ -2 + 4 = -4 + 4 + b

∴ 2 = b

→ Substitute it in the form of the equation

∴ y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2

∴ The equation of the line is y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2

the ratio of the sides of a certain triangle is 2:7:8 if the longest side of the triangle is 40cm how long are the other two sid
Zigmanuir [339]

The length of the other two sides is 10 and 35 respectively.

<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>

A ratio is a quantitative relation showing the comparison between two or more numbers. It can also be written in the fractional form where the first part is the numerator and the second part is called the denominator.

From the given information:

  • The sides of the triangle = 2:7:8
  • The total sides of the triangle = 2+7+8 = 17

We are being told that the longest side is the triangle is equal to 40.

i.e.

\mathbf{\to\dfrac{8}{17}\times x = 40}

\mathbf{x = 40 \div \dfrac{8}{17}}

\mathbf{x = 40 \times \dfrac{17}{8}}

x = 85

Now for the other two sides 2 and 7, their length is as follows.

\mathbf{\dfrac{2}{17}\times 85 = 10}

\mathbf{\dfrac{7}{17}\times 85 = 35}

Therefore, we can conclude that the length of the other two sides is 10 and 35 respectively.
