Determine the intercepts of the line that passes through the following points. (-5,-7) (0,-5) (5,-3)

1 answer:

4 0

To find the y intercept you use this equation:

y2 - y1

Same for x intercept:

x2 - x1

Pick two points, put in the values, and solve.

(-5,-7) and (0,-5)

-5 - (-7) = 2
0 - (-5) = 5

The y intercept is (0,2)
The x intercept is (5,0)

Hope this helps! :)

At a point on the ground 46 feet from the foot of a tree, the angle of elevation of the top of the tree is 68 degrees. What is t

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

114 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine or construct a right triangle with the 46 ft leg lying on the ground. This is the "adjacent side" of the triangle; it lies immediately adjacent to the 68 degree angle. The side opposite this angle is h, the height of the tree.

The tangent function includes angle, opp side and adj side:

tan 68 degrees = opp / adj = h / (46 ft), and so:

(46 ft)*tan (68 degrees) = opp = h

Then the height of the tree is h = (46 ft)(2.47) = 114 ft

Sally finds a coin with a radius of 1.5 centimeters and a thickness of 0.25 cm. It has a measured mass of 18.54 grams. How can S

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Silver

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume of the coin

<u>Volume of a cylinder</u>

$\textsf{V}=\sf \pi r^2 h \quad\textsf{(where r is the radius and h is the height)}$

Given:

r = 1.5 cm
h = 0.25 cm

Substituting given values into the formula to find the volume:

$\sf \implies V=\pi (1.5)^2(0.25)$

$\sf \implies V=0.5625 \pi \:cm^3$

Find the density of the coin given it has a measured mass of 18.54 g

<u>Density formula</u>

$\sf \rho=\dfrac{m}{V}$

where:

$\rho$ = density
m = mass
V = volume

Given:

m = 18.54 g
$\sf V=0.5625 \pi \:cm^3$

Substituting given values into the density formula:

$\implies \sf \rho=\dfrac{18.54}{0.5625 \pi}$

$\implies \sf \rho=10.49149385\:g\:cm^{-3}$

Given:

$\textsf{Density of Lead}=\sf 11.3\:g\:cm^{-3}$

$\textsf{Density of Silver}=\sf 10.49\:g\:cm^{-3}$

Therefore, as $\sf \rho=10.49\:g\:cm^{-3}$ the coin is made from silver.

The change in the value of an account when given to the nearest dollar ? Identify the set of numbers that best describes .

AveGali [126]

When an account is rounded off to its nearest dollar will change based on the place value. For example, the given account of money if $ 56 730, then it will be rounded to its nearest ten thousands. Then the given amount will be rounded to $57,000 in where the given money rounded up and gain up to $300. But if the money will be rounded with its nearest hundreds, the money will become $ 56,700. Notice that the given money rounded down and lost $30 dollars.
