6.2/8ft= H/5.6ft

6.2*5.6=34.72

34.72/8=4.34

The child is 4.34 ft tall

How do you answer a, b and c, answers and also how you worked it out
Kruka [31]

We can either convert to standard form first or convert to a common multiplier, kinda like a common denominator.  The latter makes more sense if they wanted the result in scientific notation, but let's do it that way anyway.

a)

4.5 × 10⁴ + 3.8  × 10³ = 45 × 10³ + 3.8  × 10³ = 48.8× 10³ = 48,800

Answer:  48,800

b)

4.5 × 10⁴ - 3.8  × 10³ = 45 × 10³ - 3.8  × 10³ = 41.2× 10³ = 41,200

Answer:  41,200

c)

7.2 × 10⁻³ + 6.3  × 10⁻² = 7.2 × 10⁻³ + 63  × 10⁻³ = 70.2 × 10⁻³

       = 7.02 × 10⁻² = 0.0702

Answer: 0.0702

8/v + 9/x=y Solve for v​
Andreas93 [3]

The answer is v= -8x/-xy+9

Here is the step by step process (This is going to be long):

1.  9v+8x=vxy

Multiply both sides by vx

2.  9v+8x+−vxy=vxy+−vxy

−vxy+9v+8x=0

Add -vxy to both sides

3.  −vxy+9v+8x+−8x=0+−8x

−vxy+9v=−8x

Add -8x to both sides

4.  v(−xy+9)=−8x

Factor out the variable v

5.  v(-xy+9)/-xy+9 = -8x/-xy+9

v = -8x/-xy+9

Divide both sides by -xy+9

What is the y- intercept of the function described in the table x: 1,2,3,4 y: 8,6,4,2
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The y-intercept of the function is: b=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

x                 y

1                 8

2                6

3                4

4                2

Taking any two points to find the slope

  • (1, 8)
  • (2, 6)

The slope between (1, 8) and (2, 6) is:

\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(1,\:8\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(2,\:6\right)

m=\frac{6-8}{2-1}

m=-2

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Substituting m=-2 and any point i.e. (1, 8) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation to find the y-intercept (b).

y=mx+b

8 = -2(1) + b

8 = -2 + b

b = 8+2

b = 10

Thus, the y-intercept of the function is: b=10
