Graph 3x + 2y = 6. Can someone help with this

Here are two ways to graph it.  You can decide which one seems easier to understand or easier to do:

==>  Manipulate the equation into the "slope-intercept" form, where 'y' is
all alone on one side and everything else is on the other side:

3x + 2y = 6

Subtract  3x  from each side:   2y = -3x + 6

Divide each side by  2 :            y = <em>-3/2</em> x <em>+</em> <em>3</em>

This is the form you want.  Just looking at it, it tells you that the slope
of the line on the graph is (<em>-3/2</em>), and it crosses the y-axis at  <em>+3</em> .
That's enough information to draw the line.
===============================================

=>  Another way:

Look at the x-axis and the y-axis on the graph paper ... without any graph drawn on it yet.  Just look at the 2 axes.

With an 'x'-number and a 'y'-number, you can find any point on it. Right ?

OK.  Notice that at every point on the y-axis, x = 0 .  And at every point
on the x-axis, y = 0.  This can be very very helpful.

Now take your equation:    <u>3x + 2y = 6 .</u>

You know that the graph is going to be a straight line.  And it's pretty obvious that if the line isn't horizontal or vertical, then it has to cross both the x-axis and the y-axis somewhere.  If you had an easy way to find the two points where it crosses the axes, you could join those 2 points and you'd have your line !

You DO have an easy way to find those points !

If x=0, then the point is on the y-axis.  Take your equation, make x=0, and it'll show you where the line crosses the y-axis:

                         3(0) + 2y = 6 .

                                    2y = 6 .

Divide each side by 2 :  y = 3 .

There's one point on the line:  (0, 3)

Now remember that if y=0 the point is on the x-axis.  So take your equation
and make y=0:

                                      3x + 2(0) = 6

                                      3x          = 6

Divide each side by 3 :    x = 2 

There's another point on the line, where it crosses the x-axis:  (2, 0) .

Shazam !  You have the 2 points where the line crosses the x- and
y- axes.  Mark each one with a little dot,  put your ruler down along
them, draw a line between them, and extend it as far in each direction
as you want to.  That's the graph of your equation.

Plot these coordinates then draw a line through them and that is the line.

(2,0) x intercept
(0,3) y intercept

A pecan pie is being served for dessert. One piece of pie has an arc length of 7.85 in. It has been cut into 8 equal pieces. Wha
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: 10 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the pecan pie is a circle, you can use this formula:

arc\ length=r\theta

Where "r" is the radius and \theta is the central angle of the arc in radians.

If the pecan pie has been cut into 8 equal pieces then the central angle is:

\theta=\frac{2\pi}{8}\\\\\theta={\frac{\pi}{4}

Now you know the arc length and the central angle, then, you can solve for "r" from  arc\ length=r\theta:

 \frac{arc\ length}{\theta} =r

Substituting values, you get that the radius of the pecan pie rounded to the nearest whole number is:

r=\frac{7.85in}{\frac{\pi}{4}}\\\\r=10in

What is the mass of 2.5 moles of carbon dioxide?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

110 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

CO2 molecule is made up of Carbon (atomic mass =12) and oxygen (atomic mass=16).

So first finding the mass of 1 molecule of CO2 which is equals to

= mass of 1 carbon atom + masses of 2 oxygen atom, we get

= 12+(16*2)= 12+32= 44 a.m.u.

Now 1 molecule of CO2 has mass 44 amu so mass of 1 mole CO2 will be 44 grams.( 1 a.m.u.=1.6729*10^-33 grams. 1 mole = 6.022*10^23, so 44 a.m.u.=73.6076*10^-33 grams approx. For one mole CO2, 73.6076*10^-33*6.022*10^23 which is approximately equals to 44 grams. )

1 mole CO2= 44grams, so 2.5 moles = 44*2.5= 110 grams

So our answer is 110 grams.

lowkey hope this helped you, good luck whatever you need it for Imaooo
