Another thing is its y=mx+b
y is the ordered pair
m is your slope
x is the other ordered pair
and b is your y-intercept (0,#)
your slope is -1/2

Remember Rise/Run

So in this one you would start at -7 on the y-intercept, and then go down one, and over to the right two.

Solve each equation 3x^2=80

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

$x = \frac{4\sqrt{15}}{3}, x = \frac{-4\sqrt{15}}{3}$

$x = \frac{\pm4\sqrt{15}}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Use the quadratic formula: $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

First, let's convert our equation to standard form of a Quadratic: ax² + bx + c = 0

3x² = 80

3x² - 80 = 0

Note, thats the value of b will be 0, as there is no "bx"

Now, solve:

$x = \frac{-(0) \pm \sqrt{(0)^2 - 4(3)(-80)}}{2(3)}$ Plug in values
$x = \frac{\pm\sqrt{960}}{6}$ Simplify the radical (Discriminant)
$x = \frac{\pm8\sqrt{15}}{6}$ Pull out perfect squares
$x = \frac{4\sqrt{15}}{3}, x = \frac{-4\sqrt{15}}{3}$ Reduce factors

The solutions are $x = \frac{4\sqrt{15}}{3}, x = \frac{-4\sqrt{15}}{3}$

Can anyone help me please?

vovangra [49]

Answer:

- 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given statement implies that the slope of line formed by (5, r) is (3, -2) is -2, as they lie on the same line.

Slope(using these pts) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

=> - 2 = (-2 - r)/(3 - 5)

=> -2 = (-2 - r)/(-2)

=> (-2)(-2) = (-2 - r)

=> 4 = -2 - r

=> r = - 2 - 4

=> r = - 6

The probability that a randomly selected elementary or secondary school teacher from a city is a female is , holds a second job

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The probability that an elementary or secondary school teacher selected at random from this city is a female or holds a second job is 0.90.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>X</em> = an elementary or secondary school teacher from a city is a female

<em>Y</em> = an elementary or secondary school teacher holds a second job

The information provided is:

P (X) = 0.66

P (Y) = 0.46

P (X ∩ Y) = 0.22

The addition rule of probability is:

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)$

Use this formula to compute the probability that an elementary or secondary school teacher selected at random from this city is a female or holds a second job as follows:

$P(X\cup Y)=P(X)+P(Y)-P(X\cap Y)\\=0.46+0.66-0.22\\=0.90$

Thus, the probability that an elementary or secondary school teacher selected at random from this city is a female or holds a second job is 0.90.

Which of the following parametric equations are equivalent to the polar equation r=3 cos theta

Allushta [10]

To solve the problem you must know that to change from Cartesian to polar coordinates you must write:
x = rcos (θ)
Where "r" is the radius
Likewise y = rsin (θ)
Therefore, in the expression r = 3cos (θ) one can write r as:
r = x / cos (θ)
So:
x / cos (θ) = 3cos (θ)
x = 3cos ^ 2 (θ)
The same for y ...
y = rsin (θ)
y = 3cos (θ) sin (θ).

Finally the correct answer is option 2.
x = 3cos ^ 2 (θ) y = 3cos (θ) sin (θ).
