What is the equation of the line through (-6, -5) and (-4, -4)?
1 answer:
Answer:
y = 1/2x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2-point form of the equation for a line is useful for answering questions like this.
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1 . . equation of a line through (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
Filling in the given points, the equation becomes ...
y = (-4 -(-5))/(-4 -(-6))/(x -(-6)) -5
y = 1/2(x +6) -5
y = 1/2x -2

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We need the formula for arc length (in radians) to solve this problem. The formula is:
Where
s is the arc length
r is the radius of the circle
is the intercepted angle
In this diagram, we can see that is beign intercepted by the big arc with measure 20 cm. So arc length, s, is 20
Also, if we look, we see that the radius is 5 cm, so r = 5
Now, we substitute into formula and find :
This is given in radians, so is 4 radians
D is the correct answer choice.
