Write the equation of the line shown in point slope form (1,2) (3,6)

Kipish [7]

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (1, 2) and (3, 6). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{6-2}{3-1}=\dfrac{4}{2}=2\\\\\boxed{y-2=2(x-1)}$

How do u simlpify 6feet/8yards?

Julli [10]

Well, there are 3 feet in a yard. So, 3ft=1yrd. Multiply the length value by 3. You could also multiply 3 by the # of yards (or in this situation, 8) Is that good enough?

What are the exact solutions of x2 − 5x − 7 = 0, where x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4 ti

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

$x = \frac{5 + \sqrt{53}}{2}$ or $x = \frac{5 - \sqrt{53}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0$

Required

Solve for x using:

$x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

First, we need to identify a, b and c

The general form of a quadratic equation is:

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

So, by comparison with $x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0$

$a = 1$ $b = -5$ $c = -7$

Substitute these values of a, b and c in

$x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$x = \frac{-(-5) \± \sqrt{(-5)^2 - 4 * 1 * -7}}{2 * 1}$

$x = \frac{5 \± \sqrt{25 +28}}{2}$

$x = \frac{5 \± \sqrt{53}}{2}$

Split the expression to two

$x = \frac{5 + \sqrt{53}}{2}$ or $x = \frac{5 - \sqrt{53}}{2}$

To solve further in decimal form, we have

$x = \frac{5 + 7.28}{2}$ or $x = \frac{5 - 7.28}{2}$

$x = \frac{12.28}{2}$ or $x = \frac{-2.28}{2}$

$x = 6.14$ or $x = -1.14$

Wes measures the floor area of his rectangular living room to replace the carpet with tiles.The room is 12.4 feet long and 9.8 f

Zina [86]

Answer: 121.52 square feets

Step-by-step explanation:

The room has the shape of a rectangle and its dimensions are 12.4 feet long and 9.8 feet wide. This means that dimension of the carpet is also 12.4 feet long and 9.8 feet wide. To replace the rectangular carpet with tiles, the area of the tiles must be equal to the area of the carpet. The area of the carpet is determined by length × width.

Length of the room or carpet = 12.4 feets

Width of the room or carpet = 9.8 feets

The number of square feets of tiles that Wes will need

=12.4 ×9.8 = 121.52 square feets
