We have two points, (3,0) and (0,-3). So we can find the slope of the line:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-3-0)/(0-3)
m=-3/-3
m=1 so far for the line y=mx+b we have:
y=x+b, b is the y intercept which we were told is -3 so
y=x-3
The above is called the slope-intercept form of a line, y=mx+b, the standard form of a line is ax+by=c, so we need to get both variables on one side of the equation..
y=x-3 subtract x from both sides
-x+y=-3
While the above may be acceptable to some, technically the coefficient of x should be expressed as a positive value, so we should divide the above "solution" by -1 to get:
x-y=3
Answer:
First blank- 32000 ounces
Second blank- 2000 pounds
Yes the bridge can hold 1 ton.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the scale of the model to the real bridge = 1:4
The test model shows the model can take 8000 ounces
The real bridge will therefore take 8000 x 4 = 32000 ounces
16 ounces = 1 pound
32000 ounces = x pounds
==> = 32000/16 = 2000 pounds
2000 pounds = 1 ton
therefore the bridge holds 1 ton
No, her answer is not reasonable because one yard is equal to 3 feet.
Answer: 15 i think
Step-by-step explanation: not sure
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L be the given line, then, with a slope of -8
L : y = -8x + b
where b is to be determined from the included point A(-10,0).
Substitute point A in L to get
0 = -8 (-10) + b
solve to get
b = -80
therefore
L : y = -8x -80
Now substitute B(-9,z) in L
z = -8(-9) - 80 = -8
