Answer:

y = 7x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If the slope and coordinates have already been given, you can plug the values into the following equation of a line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where y1 is the y coordinate, so in this case 8,

x1 is the x coordinate which is 1

m is the slope, so 7:

y - 8 = 7(x - 1)

Expand the brackets:

y - 8 = 7x - 7

To isolate the y, we need to move the -8 over to the other side making it a positive 8:

y = 7x - 7 + 8

y = 7x + 1

So the equation of the line is y = 7x + 1

At what root does the graph of f(x)=(x+4)^6(x+7)^5 cross the x axis?

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

f(x) crosses the x-axis, then

f(x)=(x+4)^6(x+7)^5 = 0

=> x+4 =0 or x+7=0

=> x =-4 or x = -7

Find the area of a parallelogram with sides of 6 and 12 and an angle of 60°.

Anna007 [38]

ANSWER

36√3 square units.

EXPLANATION

The area of a parallelogram is obtained by multiplying the base by the height.

We use the sine ratio to obtain the height.

$\sin(60 \degree) = \frac{h}{6}$

$h = 6 \sin(60 \degree)$

$h = 3 \sqrt{3}$

The area becomes:

$12 \times 3 \sqrt{3} = 36 \sqrt{3} {units}^{2}$

Find two numbers such that their product, sum and difference are in the ratio 5:4:1'

wel

Answer:

3 1/3 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y and let z be the constant of proportion. Then

xy = 5z ...............(1)

x + y = 4z ...........(2)

x - y = z ..............(3) Adding (2) and (3)

2x = 5z

x = 5z/2 ................(4)

Substituting for x in equation 1:

5z/2 * y = 5z

y = (5z * 2) / 5z = 2.

Substituting for y in equations (2) and (3):

x + 2 = 4z

x - 2 = z Subtracting:

4 = 3z

z = 4/3.

Substituting for z in equation (4)

x = 5(4/3) /2

x = 20/6 = 10/3 = 3 1/3.

So the 2 numbers are 3 1/3 and 2.

Checking the results:

xy = 2 * 10/3 = 20/3 = 5 * 4/3 = 5z

x + y = 10/3 + 2 = 16/3 = 4 * 4/3 = 4z.

x - y = 10/3 - 2 = 4/3 = z.
