How do you do this problem? I need to know how you found the answer.

to get the equation of a line, we simply need two points, say for the Red one ... notice in the graph the lines passes through (0,2) and (-1,6), so let's use those

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{6-2}{-1-0}\implies \cfrac{4}{-1}\implies -4 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-2=-4(x-0) \\\\\\ y-2=-4x\implies \blacktriangleright y=-4x+2 \blacktriangleleft$

now, for the Blue one, say let's use hmmm it passes through (0,2) and (1.6)

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{6-2}{1-0}\implies \cfrac{4}{1}\implies 4 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-2=4(x-0) \\\\\\ y-2=4x\implies \blacktriangleright y=4x+2 \blacktriangleleft$

What is the area of a sector with a central angle of 3pi/5 radians and a diameter of 21.2cm

Elenna [48]

Answer: 105.84 cm^2

To find the answer, first you have to start by finding the percent of the circle in the sector. Convert the radians given to 108 degrees. 108 out of 360 is 30%.

Now, find the area of the circle. It's pi x r^2, so the area is 352.810.

Multiply this by 30% to find our area of 105.84 cm^2
