Answer:

x=8in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown side=xin

Hypotenuse^2=opposite^2+adjacent^2

Hyp=17in

Opp=xin

Adj=15in

Hyp^2=opp^2+adj^2

17^2=x^2+15^2

17^2-15^2=x^2

289-225=x^2

64=x^2

x=√64

x=8in

Which of the following equations represents the area of a sector?
Rina8888 [55]

From the given options we can say that the only one that represents the area of the sector is; A = n/360 * πr²

<h3>What is the Area of the Sector?</h3>

In circles, a sector is said to be a part of a circle made of the arc of the circle together with its two radii. This means that it is a portion of the circle formed by a portion of the circumference (arc) and radii of the circle at both endpoints of the arc.

The formula for Area of a sector is given as;

θ/360 * πr²

where;

θ is the central angle of the sector

r is radius

Now, looking at the given options we can say that the only one that represents the area of the sector is;

A = n/360 * πr²

where n is the central angle of the sector

Find the values for a and b that would make the equality true.
Crank

Answer:

a = - 4, b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the left side and compare the coefficients of like terms on the right side.

- 3(2x² + ax + b)

= - 6x² - 3ax - 3b

Comparing like terms with - 6x² + 12x - 15

x - term → - 3a = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

                    a = - 4

constant term → - 3b = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

                               b = 5

Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{y =  - 2x + 6}}}}

☥ \tt{Question} :

  • Write the equation of a line in slope - intercept form that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point ( - 1 , 8 ).

☥ \tt{Step  -  \: by \:  -  \: step \: explanation}

☪ \underline{ \underline{ \text{Given : }}}

  • Slope ( m ) = -2
  • Given point = ( - 1 , 8 )

☪ \underline {\underline{ \text{To \: find}}} :

  • Equation of a line in slope - intercept form ( i.e y = mx + c )

Let the point ( -1 , 8 ) be ( x₁ , y₁ )

☪ \underline{ \underline{ \text{Solution}}} :

\underline{ \sf{y - y1 = m(x - x1)}}

plug the known values :

↦ \text{y - 8 =  - 2 \{ x - ( - 1) \} }

↦ \text{y - 8 =  - 2(x + 1)}

Distribute -2 through the parentheses :

↦ \text{y - 8 =  - 2x - 2}

Transpose 8 to right hand side and change it's sign

↦ \text{y =  - 2x - 2 + 8}

↦ \boxed{ \text{y =  - 2x + 6}}

And we're done !

Hope I helped!

♡ Have a wonderful day / night ツ
