Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Has a slope of 2 and passes through (10,17)

Using the slope intercept form

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2x+b

Substitute the point into the equation

17 = 2(10)+b

17 = 20+b

Subtract 20 from each side

17-20 =b

-3 =b

y = 2x-3

b. passes through (1,-4) and (2,-5)

First find the slope

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-5- -4)/(2-1)

  = (-5+4)/(2-1)

  = -1/1

  = -1

Using the slope intercept form

y = -x+b

Substitute a point into the equation

-4 = -1(1) +b

-4 = -1+b

Add 1 to each side

-3 = b

y = -x+3

A spherical block of ice melts so that its surface area decreases at a constant rate: ds/dt = - 8 pi cm^2/s. calculate how fast
sveticcg [70]
The rate a which the surface area, S, decreases is
\frac{dS}{dt} =-8 \pi \, cm^{2}/s

The surface area is
S = 4πr²
where r =  the radius at time t.

Therefore
\frac{dS}{dt} = \frac{dS}{dr}  \frac{dr}{dt} =8 \pi r  \frac{dr}{dt} \\\\ -8 \pi  = 8 \pi r  \frac{dr}{dt} \\\\  \frac{dr}{dt} =- \frac{1}{r}

When r = 3 cm, obtain
\frac{dr}{dt}]_{r=3} = - \frac{1}{3} \, cm/s

Answer:  -1/3  cm/s  (or -0.333 cm/s)

A farmer divided his piece of land into 2 equivalent groups and the quality of the soil is the same in both of these groups. He
Dimas [21]

Answer:

  1. Observational would mean that he (farmer) has no direct impact or change on the statistical study.
  2. Experiment would mean that he imposed a certain treatment up a group in this case it would be the land.
  3. Hence we can determine that the the study was an experimental one.
