Find the equation of a line passing through ( -1/2,1/2) with a slope of 5.

First check the gradient - the number before the x which is 5 of course.
Then use the formula...
y - b = m(x - a) using the gradient m = (5) and the coordinate you have which is (-1/2,1/2)
( a b)

So...
y- b = m (x - a)
y - 1/2 = 5 ( x - (-) 1/2)
y - 1/2 = 5 ( x + 1/2)
y - 1/2 = 5x + 2.5
<u>y = 5x + 3 (C)</u>

Hope that helped

The correct answer is c because when I graphed each one the only one that passed through your given coordinate was that equation

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

thirty percent of $28 is $8.4, so you would subtract the two leaving you with $19.6

2.5 sales tax of $19.6 is $0.49

Adding those two, the total comes to 20.09 which is just over budget

Simplify 4√16 + 8√16

Mumz [18]

$4\sqrt{16} + 8\sqrt{16}$ :

Since $\sqrt{1} =1$ , we get:

$4\cdot \:1\cdot \:6+8\cdot \:1\cdot \:6=24+48=72$

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$7\sqrt{4} *3\sqrt{8}$

We have $\sqrt{4}=2$

simplify $\sqrt{8} = \sqrt{2^3} = \sqrt{2^2*2}$

then the radical rule is used: $\quad \sqrt[n]{ab}=\sqrt[n]{a}\sqrt[n]{b}$

⇒ $\sqrt{2^2*2} = \sqrt{2^2} \sqrt{2}= \sqrt{4}\sqrt{2} =2\sqrt{2}$

Now we have $\sqrt{4}=2$ and $\sqrt{8}=2 \sqrt{2}$

$7\sqrt{4} *3\sqrt{8} = 7*2*3*2\sqrt{2} = 84 \sqrt{2}$

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$2\sqrt{4}+5 \sqrt{9}$

$2\sqrt{4} =2*2= 4$ and $5\sqrt{9} =5*3= 15$

$2\sqrt{4}+5 \sqrt{9} = 4+15 = 19$

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$4\sqrt{5} -2\sqrt{5} = 2\sqrt{5}$

since $2\sqrt{5}$ is the half of $4\sqrt{5}$

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$-4\sqrt{2}\:+\:5\sqrt{2} =1 \sqrt{2} = \sqrt{2}\\$ <em>(-4+5=1)</em>

A painter leans a 20-ft ladder against a building. The base of the ladder is 12 ft from the building. To the nearest foot, how h

Scilla [17]

For the main question, it's basically just the Pythagorean's Theorem, 400-144= 256, square root of 256 is 16, so it reaches 16 feet up the building.
For Picture 1: Another Pythagorean's Theorem question, since the two angles are both 45 degrees, then LM and KM are the same. They are both 5, so they both square to 25, added together 50. So we do square root of 50, and then you can change it to square root of 25 * square root of 2. And then you can change it to 5 * square root of 2.
Picture 2: isn't it the exact same?
