Answer:
In step 2, she didn’t use an x and y from the same coordinate pair
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we have the points (5, 1) and (3, 5)
step 1
Find the slope
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
substitute
step 2
The equation of the line in point slope form is
![y-y1=m(x-x1)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y-y1%3Dm%28x-x1%29)
take the point (3,5)
substitute
![y-5=-2(x-3)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y-5%3D-2%28x-3%29)
![y-5=-2x+6](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y-5%3D-2x%2B6)
![y=-2x+6+5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D-2x%2B6%2B5)
step 3
![y=-2x+11](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D-2x%2B11)
therefore
In step 2, she didn’t use an x and y from the same coordinate pair
Answer:
72 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
180-108=72
where I got 180: a supplementary angle is 180 degrees
Answer: the length of one edge of the square base of the second container is 6 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular container is expressed as
Volume = length × width × height
Considering the first container,
Length = 12 inches
Width = 8 inches
Height to which the water is filled is 6 inches.
Therefore, volume of water in the container is
12 × 8 × 6 = 576 inches³
Considering the second container,
Height of water = 16 inches
Let L represent the length of the square base. Then the area of the square base is L²
Volume of water would be 16L²
Since the water in the first container was poured into the second container, then
16L² = 576
L² = 576/16 = 36
L = √36
L = 6 inches
Answer:
Third option
Step-by-step explanation:
We can't factor this so we need to use the quadratic formula which states that when ax² + bx + c = 0, x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a. However, we notice that b (which is 6) is even, so we can use the special quadratic formula which states that when ax² + bx + c = 0 and b is even, x = (-b' ± √(b'² - ac)) / a where b' = b / 2. In this case, a = 1, b' = 3 and c = 7 so:
x = (-3 ± √(3² - 1 * 7)) / 1 = -3 ± √2
