What does a slope of 1/4 look like

Slope is also known as rise over run -
$\frac{rise}{run}$
Here, we have the slope $\frac{1}{4}$ . This means that the rise is $1$ and the run is $4$ . Since both values are positive, we can say that we go up one and we go right four. When we plot this on a graph (the graph is attached), we get the same exact formula we found. **In the graph, I plotted the line $y= \frac{1}{4} x$ **. Hope this helped!

Substitute the known value of x into y=4x+20. Then solve for y entering the equation in simplest form

scoray [572]

Answer:

$y=24,$ when $x=1$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $y=4x+20$

To find: Value of $y$ , substituting the known value of $x$

We have,

$y=4x+20 ...(i)$

Putting $x=1$ in equation $(i)$ , we get

$y=4(1)+20$

$\implies y=4+20$

$\implies y=24$

Hence, the value of $y$ is $24$ , when the value of $x$ is $1$ .

What happens to light when it strikes a smooth shiny surface?

ELEN [110]

Step-by-step explanation:

Light reflects from a smooth surface at the same angle as it hits the surface. For a smooth surface, reflected light rays travel in the same direction. This is called specular reflection. For a rough surface, reflected light rays scatter in all directions.

Answer:

B. s = 24t

Step-by-step explanation:

Since s varies directly with t, therefore, equation that will represent the relationship would take the form of s = my

m = rate of change

✔️Find the rate of change:

Rate of change using two given pairs, (0.5, 12) and (2.5, 60),

Rate of change (m) = ∆s/∆t = (60 - 12)/(2.5 - 0.5) = 48/2 = 24

✔️Substitute m = 24 into s = mt

s = 24t

A triangle has vertices at A(-2,3), B(2,-2), and C(-2,-2). What is the area of the triangle?

Softa [21]

Answer:

The area of the given triangle ABC is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the area of the triangle when points are given is given by the relation

Area of triangle=

$\frac{1}{2} {x1 \times (y2 - y3) + x2 \times (y3 - y1) + x3 \times (y1 - y2)}$

and hence putting the Value

triangle = 1/2*( -2*(-2+2)+2*(-2-3)+(-2)*(3+2))

= 1/2*(0+2*(-5)+(-2)*5)

= 1/2*(-10-10)

= 1/2*(-20)

= (-10) units

Since area of the triangle is always positive, we neglect the minus sign and take 10 units as its area.
