Find the slope of the line graphed in the diagram and choose the correct answer from the choices below. The two intercepts are (

0,3) and (-2.5,0)

1 answer:

balandron [24]3 years ago

3 0

Answer:

6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given points (0, 3) and (-2.5, 0) you can substitute it into the slope formula which is y2-y1/x2-x1

In this case, 3 in the first parenthesis is the y2, while 0 in the second parenthesis set is 0.

so,

= substitute in the numbers for the slope formula: 3-0/0-(-2.5)

= reduce the fraction and you get: 1.2

= convert to simplified fraction to get: 6/5

Hope this helps, I did this on a quiz and got the answer right.

Write this expression in radical form t^-3/4

ZanzabumX [31]

The first thing you should know are properties of exponents to solve the problem.
For this case the radical form is given by the writing of the expression in the form of root.
We have then:
t^-3/4 =4^root(t^-3)=4^root ((1)/(t^3))
answer t^-3/4=4^root((1)/(t^3))

HELP!!!! Choose the correct answer. Which expression, when evaluated,

blagie [28]

We will check each options and verify it

(a)

$18-2m$

we can plug m=2

$18-2\times 2$

$18-4$

$14$

so, this is FALSE

(b)

$7x-\frac{x}{3} >19$

we can plug x=3

$7\times 3-\frac{3}{3} >19$

$21-1 >19$

$20 >19$

so, this is TRUE

(c)

$6x-1>4x+5$

we can plug x=3

$6\times 3-1>4\times 3+5$

$18-1>12+5$

$17>17$

so, this is FALSE

(d)

$2x^2-3x+1$

now, we can plug x=2

$2(2)^2-3(2)+1$

$8-6+1$

$3$

So, this is FALSE

The perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/3 centimeters, find the length of the radius and apothem.

MAXImum [283]

There is a typo error, the perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/√3 centimeters.

Answer:

Radius = OB= 27 cm

Apothem = 13.5 cm

A diagram is attached for reference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/√3 centimeters.

Substituting this in the formula of perimeter of equilateral triangle = $3\times\ side$

$3\times\ side$ $=[tex]81\sqrt{3}$

$Side = \frac{81\sqrt{3} }{3} =27\sqrt{3} \ cm$

Thus from the diagram , Side $AB=BC=AC= 27\sqrt{3} \ cm$

We know each angle of an equilateral triangle is 60°.

From the diagram, OB is an angle bisector.

Thus $\angle OBC = 30$ °

Apothem is the line segment from the mid point of any side to the center the equilateral triangle.

Therefore considering ΔOBE, and applying tan function.

$tan\theta =\frac{perpendicular}{base} \\tan\theta=\frac{OE}{BE} \\tan\theta=\frac{OE}{\frac{27\sqrt{3}}{2} } \\tan30\times {\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2} }= OE\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } \times\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2} =OE\\$

Thus ,apothem OE= 13.5 cm

Now for radius,

We consider ΔOBE

$cos\theta=\frac{base}{hypotenuse} \\cos30= \frac{BE}{OB} \\Cos30 = \frac{\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2}}{OB} \\OB= \frac{\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2}}{cos30} \\OB= \frac{\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} } \\OB =27 \ cm$

Thus for

Perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/√3 centimeters,

The radius of equilateral triangle ABC is 27 cm

The apothem of equilateral triangle ABC is 13.5 cm
