y = - 4x - 2

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 4x - 5 is in this form

with slope m = - 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 6 ) into the partial equation

6 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 8 = - 2

y = - 4x - 2 ← equation of parallel line

Area = $\pi r^{2}$
area = $\pi$ x 1 x 1 = $\pi$

Circumference = $2\pi r$
Circumference = 2 x $\pi$ x1
Circumference = 2 $\pi$

The circumference is greater than the area

The altitude of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 1 cm/min while the area of the triangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm2/m

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The base is reducing at a rate of 3.4cm per min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let The Height of the Triangle, h

Area of the triangle = A

Area of a Triangle, $A= \frac{1}{2}bh$

When $A=190 cm^2, h=10cm$

$190= \frac{1}{2}*b*10\\b=38cm$

$\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}h\frac{db}{dt}+ \frac{1}{2}b\frac{dh}{dt}\\\frac{dh}{dt}=1 cm/min, \frac{dA}{dt}=2cm^2/min,$

$2=\frac{1}{2}*10*\frac{db}{dt}+ \frac{1}{2}*38*1\\2=5\frac{db}{dt}+19\\2-19=5\frac{db}{dt}\\-17=5\frac{db}{dt}\\\frac{db}{dt}=-\frac{17}{5} =-3.4 cm/min$

The base is reducing at a rate of 3.4cm per min.

Answer:

57.72 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1. Shapes are triangle, semi-circle, and rectangle.

Question 2.Find area of rectangle first. Then area of triangle and circle. Subtract area of triangle and circle. Then add the difference with the rectangles area.

Question 3.

Rectangle's area:48 in^2

Triangles area:8*4/2= 16 in^2

Circle Area: pi*r^2/2(since its a semi-circle)

3.14*2^2=3.14*4=12.56/2=6.28 in^2

Question 4.

16-6.28=9.72

9.72+48=57.72 in^2
