20/25 = 0.8...the " / " means divide....to find the percent, multiply by 100
0.8 * 100 = 80%

Which correctly describes how the graph of the inequality 6y − 3x > 9 is shaded? -Above the solid line

baherus [9]

The statement which correctly describes the shaded region for the inequality is $\fbox{\begin\\\ Above the dashed line\\\end{minispace}}$

Further explanation:

In the question it is given that the inequality is $6y-3x>9$ .

The equation corresponding to the inequality $6y-3x>9$ is $6y-3x=9$ .

The equation $6y-3x=9$ represents a line and the inequality $6y-3x>9$ represents the region which lies either above or below the line $6y-3x=9$ .

Transform the equation $6y-3x=9$ in its slope intercept form as $y=mx+c$ , where $m$ represents the slope of the line and $c$ represents the $y$ -intercept.

$y$ -intercept is the point at which the line intersects the $y$ -axis.

In order to convert the equation $6y-3x=9$ in its slope intercept form add $3x$ to equation $6y-3x=9$ .

$6y-3x+3x=9+3x$

$6y=9+3x$

Now, divide the above equation by $6$ .

$\fbox{\begin\\\math{y=\dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\end{minispace}}$

Compare the above final equation with the general form of the slope intercept form $\fbox{\begin\\\math{y=mx+c}\\\end{minispace}}$ .

It is observed that the value of $m$ is $\dfrac{1}{2}$ and the value of $c$ is $\dfrac{3}{2}$ .

This implies that the $y$ -intercept of the line is $\dfrac{3}{2}$ so, it can be said that the line passes through the point $\fbox{\begin\\\ \left(0,\dfrac{3}{2}\right)\\\end{minispace}}$ .

To draw a line we require at least two points through which the line passes so, in order to obtain the other point substitute $0$ for $y$ in $6y=9+3x$ .

$0=9+3x$

$3x=-9$

$\fbox{\begin\\\math{x=-3}\\\end{minispace}}$

This implies that the line passes through the point $\fbox{\begin\\\ (-3,0)\\\end{minispace}}$ .

Now plot the points $(-3,0)$ and $\left(0,\dfrac{3}{2}\right)$ in the Cartesian plane and join the points to obtain the graph of the line $6y-3x=9$ .

Figure $1$ shows the graph of the equation $6y-3x=9$ .

Now to obtain the region of the inequality $6y-3x>9$ consider any point which lies below the line $6y-3x=9$ .

Consider $(0,0)$ to check if it satisfies the inequality $6y-3x>9$ .

Substitute $x=0$ and $y=0$ in $6y-3x>9$ .

$(6\times0)-(3\times0)>9$

$0>9$

The above result obtain is not true as $0$ is not greater than $9$ so, the point $(0,0)$ does not satisfies the inequality $6y-3x>9$ .

Now consider $(-2,2)$ to check if it satisfies the inequality $6y-3x>9$ .

Substitute $x=-2$ and $y=2$ in the inequality $6y-3x>9$ .

$(6\times2)-(3\times(-2))>9$

$12+6>9$

$18>9$

The result obtain is true as $18$ is greater than $9$ so, the point $(-2,2)$ satisfies the inequality $6y-3x>9$ .

The point $(-2,2)$ lies above the line so, the region for the inequality $6y-3x>9$ is the region above the line $6y-3x=9$ .

The region the for the inequality $6y-3x>9$ does not include the points on the line $6y-3x=9$ because in the given inequality the inequality sign used is $>$ .

Figure $2$ shows the region for the inequality $\fbox{\begin\\\math{6y-3x>9}\\\end{minispace}}$ .

Therefore, the statement which correctly describes the shaded region for the inequality is $\fbox{\begin\\\ Above the dashed line\\\end{minispace}}$

Try to get the fractions with same denominators. Use the LCD system to find equal factors to a common denominator. Then just simply compare it.

*Note: Larger fraction is the greater numerator.*

Where v is the final velocity (in m/s), u is the initial velocity (in m/s), a is the acceleration (in m/s²) and s is the distanc

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The final velocity v is 21.74 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\textrm{initial velocity} = u = 9\ m/s\\\textrm{acceleration} = a = 7\ m/s^{2}\\\textrm{distance} = s = 28\ m$

To find:

$\textrm{final velocity} = v = ?$

Solution:

As we know the third equation of motion is represented as

$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2\times a\times s\\$

Substituting the values u, a and s in the above equation we get

$v^{2} = 9^{2} + 2\times 7\times 28\\ =81 + 392\\=473\\$

$v =\±\sqrt{473} \\v =\sqrt{473} \ \textrm{as acceleration is positive v is also positive}\\v = 21.74\ m/s$

What is the length of the hypotenuse?

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Hello! answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do to find the answer for these is do a^2+b^2=c^2 Basically meaning 4 × 4 + 3 × 3 will equal a number that you then find the suare root of square root just meaning a number multiplied by itself to equals that number so...

4 × 4 = 16

3 × 3 = 9

16 + 9 = 25

√25 = 5

5 × 5 = 25 therefore c = 5 hope that helps!
