The y-intercept is (0, -8)
if you set the equation to slope intercept format you get

y=-2x-8

A Lua reflete parte da luz solar que nela incide. Admite que: a luz refletida pela Lua demora 1,28 segundos a chegar à Terra; en

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

3.84 * 10^8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

As the speed of light is 300,000,000 meters/second and the time that the light takes to go from the moon to the Earth is 1.28 seconds, we can find the distance using the formula:

Distance = speed * time

So we have that:

Distance = 300,000,000 * 1.28 = 384,000,000 meters

In cientific notation, we need the first number to be in the interval from 1 to 10, so we have 3.84, and we have to multiply by 10^8 to reach our result, so we have:

Distance = 3.84 * 10^8 meters

Write an equation of the line that passes through (18, 2) and is parallel to the line 3y−x=−12

miskamm [114]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope, hmmmm what's the slope of the line above anyway?

$\bf 3y-x=-12\implies 3y=x-12\implies y=\cfrac{x-12}{3}\implies y = \cfrac{x}{3}-\cfrac{12}{3} \\\\\\ y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{1}{3}}x-4\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/3 and runs through (18,2)

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{18}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{1}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{2}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{1}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{18}) \\\\\\ y-2=\cfrac{1}{3}x-6\implies y=\cfrac{1}{3}x-4$

According to the rational root theorem, what are all the potential rational roots of f(x)=5x^3-7x+11

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$\pm11,\pm1,\pm\frac{11}{5},\pm\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial function is

$f(x)=5x^3-7x+11$

According to the Rational Roots Theorem, the ratio of all factors of the constant term expressed over the factors of the leading coefficient.

The potential rational roots are

$\pm\frac{11}{1}=\pm11$

$\pm\frac{1}{1}=\pm1$

$\pm\frac{11}{5}$

$\pm\frac{1}{5}$
