Answer:
y = 4x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = E(4, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = F(2, - 4)
m =
=
= 4 , then
y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (4, 4), then
4 = 16 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 16 = - 12
y = 4x - 12 ← equation of line
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the expression we have is:

To find an equivalent expression, it would be helpful to express 1/3 so that it has a 12 in the denominator:

so we substitute this:

and now we have 1/12 in both terms :

so we can factor it (we take it out of each term: in the first we are left with -x and in the second with -4):
the equivalent expression is:
Answer:
x = (4 + 2√34)/10, x = (4 - 2√34)/10
Step-by-step explanation:
5x² - 4x = 6
Subtract: 5x² - 4x - 6 = 0
Quadratic formula: x = (4 ± √(16 - 4*5*(-6)))/10
Multiply: x = (4 ± √(16 + 120))/10
Simplify: x = (4 ± 2√34)/10
52 = 50
512= 500
500/50 = 10
Answer:
15.5
Step-by-step explanation:
So the formula here is the square of the tangent length is equal to the product of the exterior part of the secant line and total length of the secant.
So that means we have x^2=10(14+10).
After simplifying the right hand side we have the equation is x^2=10(24) or x^2=240.
To get rid of the square on the x, we square root both sides.
x=sqrt(240)
x=15.49193338
To the nearest tenths, the answer is x=15.5
So 15.5 inches is the length of x.
