Kiana wants to write equations in the form y = mx + b for the lines passing through

Mathematics
1 answer:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

'Substitute the slope and the coordinates of point P(-3,2) in y = mx + b and then solve for b in each equation'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kiana wants to write equations in the form y = mx + b for the lines passing through point P that are parallel and perpendicular to line q.  

This equation is in the slope-intercept form where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

First, she finds the slope of line q and the slope of line s to be – 2. Point P is located at (-3,2).

Therefore, the step that can be used to find the y-intercept is 'substitute the slope and the coordinates of point P(-3,2) in y = mx + b and then solve for b in each equation'. (Answer)

The measure of one angle is six more than half the measure of another angle. If the angles are complementary, find both measures
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The measures of the two angles are 34° and 56°

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The complementary angles are the angles whose the sum

  of their measures is 90°

- The measure of one angle is six more than half the measure

 of another angle

- Let the measure of the second angle angle is x

∵ The measure of the 2nd angle is x

∵ The measure of the first angle is 6 more than the half of the

  measure of the second angle

∴ The 1st angle is 6 + 1/2 x

∵ The two angles are complementary

∴ The sum of their measures is 90°

∴ x + (6 + 1/2 x) = 90

∴ (x + 1/2 x) + 6 = 90

∴ 3/2 x + 6 = 90

- Subtract 6 from both sides

∴ 3/2 x = 84

- Multiply both sides by

∴ 3x = 168

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ x = 56

∵ x is the measure of the 2nd angle

∴ The measure of the 2nd angle is 56°

∵ The measure of the 1st angle = 6 + 1/2 x

∵ x = 56

∴ The measure of the 1st angle = 6 + 1/2(56) = 34°

* The measures of the two angles are 34° and 56°

Problem: A piece of farmland is a watering plot of land in a circular pattern. A sewer line needs to be installed from a new hou
Musya8 [376]

The entry and exit points of (2, 3), and (12, 6), and 200 ft. extension of the sprinkler system gives;

(1) The sewer line crosses the farmland at (6.53, 4.36), and (8.48, 4.9)

(2) The longest installable sprinkler system is approximately 172.4 feet

<h3>How can the points where the line crosses the farmland be found?</h3>

1. The slope of the sewer line is found as follows;

  • m = (6 - 3)/(12 - 2) = 3/10 = 0.3

The equation of the sewer line can be expressed in point and slope form as follows;

  • (y - 3) = 0.3×(x - 2)

y = 0.3•x - 0.6 + 3

y = 0.3•x + 2.4

The equation of the circumference of the sprinkler can be expressed as follows;

  • (x - 8)² + (y - 3)² = 2²

Therefore;

(x - 8)² + (0.3•x + 2.4 - 3)² = 2²

Solving gives;

x= 6.53, or x = 8.48

y = 0.3×6.53 + 2.4 = 4.36

y = 0.3×8.48 + 2.4 = 4.9

Therefore;

  • The sewer line crosses the farmland at (6.53, 4.36), and (8.48, 4.9)

2. When the farmland does not cross the sewer line, we have;

sewer line is tangent to circumference of farmland

Slope of radial line from center of the land is therefore;

m1 = -1/0.3

Equation of the radial line to the point the sewer line is tangent to the circumference is therefore;

y - 3 = (-1/0.3)×(x - 8)

Which gives;

y = (-1/0.3)×(x - 8) + 3

The x-coordinate is therefore;

0.3•x + 2.4 = (-1/0.3)×(x - 8) + 3

  • x ≈ 7.5

  • y = 0.3 × 7.5 + 2.4 ≈ 4.65

The longest sprinkler system is therefore;

d = √((7.5 - 8)² + (4.65 - 3)²) ≈ 1.724

Which gives;

  • The longest sprinkler system is 1.724 × 100 ft. ≈ 172.4 ft.

The legs of a scalene triangle are represented by (x + 4), (x + 8), and ( 2x − 3). Which polynomial expression BEST represents t
ivanzaharov [21]

The perimeter of the triangle is: 4x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is the measurement of boundary of any closed figure.

Given

s1 = x+4

s2 = x+8

s3 = 2x-3

So, the perimeter will be the sum of all three sides

P = s_1+s_2+s_3\\= (x+4) + (x+8) + (2x-3)\\= x+4+x+8+2x-3\\= 4x+9

Hence,

The perimeter of the triangle is: 4x+9
