Hello!!

Let's look at each one individually:


Upper left:
There's points very far to the left of the line. This is not a good answer.

Bottom left:
Many of the pints are quite faraway to the right of the line. This is also not a good answer.

Upper right:
Besides for the two points on the line, all of the other points are to the right of the line. This is definitely not a very good option.

Bottom right:
There are an even number of points to either side of the line. This is the best linear model for the data.


Hope this helps!! Let me know if you have ANY questions.

A triangle is formed from the points L(-3, 6), N(3, 2) and P(1, -8). Find the equation of the following lines:
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Part A) y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}  

Part B)  y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}

Part C) y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{8}{7}

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

points L(-3, 6), N(3, 2) and P(1, -8)

Part A) Find the equation of the  median from N

we Know that

The median passes through point N to midpoint segment LP

step 1

Find the midpoint segment LP

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

M(\frac{-3+1}{2},\frac{6-8}{2})

M(-1,-1)

step 2

Find the slope of the segment NM

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  

we have

N(3, 2) and M(-1,-1)

substitute the values

m=\frac{-1-2}{-1-3}

m=\frac{-3}{-4}

m=\frac{3}{4}

step 3

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=\frac{3}{4}

point\ N(3, 2)

substitute

y-2=\frac{3}{4}(x-3)

step 4

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

y-2=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}

y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}+2

y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}  

Part B) Find the equation of the  right bisector of LP

we Know that

The right bisector is perpendicular to LP and passes through midpoint segment LP

step 1

Find the midpoint segment LP

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

M(\frac{-3+1}{2},\frac{6-8}{2})

M(-1,-1)

step 2

Find the slope of the segment LP

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

m=\frac{-8-6}{1+3}

m=\frac{-14}{4}

m=-\frac{14}{4}

m=-\frac{7}{2}

step 3

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to segment LP

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

m_1*m_2=-1

we have

m_1=-\frac{7}{2}

so

m_2=\frac{2}{7}

step 4

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=\frac{2}{7}

point\ M(-1,-1) ----> midpoint LP

substitute

y+1=\frac{2}{7}(x+1)

step 5

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

y+1=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{2}{7}

y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{2}{7}-1

y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}

Part C) Find the equation of the altitude from N

we Know that

The altitude is perpendicular to LP and passes through point N

step 1

Find the slope of the segment LP

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

m=\frac{-8-6}{1+3}

m=\frac{-14}{4}

m=-\frac{14}{4}

m=-\frac{7}{2}

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to segment LP

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

m_1*m_2=-1

we have

m_1=-\frac{7}{2}

so

m_2=\frac{2}{7}

step 3

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=\frac{2}{7}

point\ N(3,2)

substitute

y-2=\frac{2}{7}(x-3)

step 4

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

y-2=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{6}{7}

y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{6}{7}+2

y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{8}{7}

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

2 should be distributed as 2y + 16; y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to distribute 2, then:

Now we have to sum (-2y) in both sides of the equation:

Finally we have to divide both sides of the equation in 2:

Then the answer is 2 should be distributed as 2y + 16; y = 8

Hope this helps.

Laura framed her rectangular garden with boards. She used 1 board on each side. The longer sides
Alex73 [517]

Answer: D) 48.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Area of a rectangle: length x width

Replacing with the values given and solving for A (area)

A= 7.5 ft x 6.5 ft =48.75 ft2

The area of the garden in square feet is 48.75. (option D).

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Demarcus has to wrap a gift for his friend's birthday party. The gift is in a rectangular box with the dimensions shown below. H
pochemuha

The surface area of the box is <u>1048 square inches</u>

<h3>How to calculate the total surface area of the box</h3>

The formula for calculating the surface area of the prism is expressed as:

Surface area = 2(lw + wh +lh)

Given the following

l = 20in

w = 8in

h = 13in

Substitute the given parameters'

Surface area = 2(lw + wh +lh)

Surface area = 2(20(8) + 8(13) +20(13))

Surface area = 2(160+104+260)

Surface area = 1048 square inches

Hence surface area of the box is <u>1048 square inches</u>
