Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The line with points (1,2) and (-1,-8). Work out its equation.</u>
<u>The slope is:</u>
- m = (-8 - 2)/(-1 - 1) = -10/-2 = 5
<u>To find the y intercept, substitute x and y-xoordinates of point (1,2):</u>
- 2 = 5(1) + b
- b = 2 - 5
- b = -3
<u>The line is:</u>
<u>Point (x, 17), substitute y-coordinate and solve for x</u>
- 17 = 5x - 3
- 5x = 17 + 3
- 5x = 20
- x = 20/5
- x = 4
Answer:
5.2 in
Step-by-step explanation:
An equilateral triangle is a triangle with 3 equal sides
Divide the equilateral triangle into two congruent triangles and use Pythagoras theorem to find the height
The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²
where a = height
b = base = 6 in / 2 = 3 in
c = hypotenuse = 6 in
6² = 3² + h²
h = 36 - 9 = 27
√27 = 5.196 inch
to the nearest tenth = 5.2 in
the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero
Answer:
x = 5,-1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-5)(x+1)
60 goes into 195 so 60*3 is 180 and it can't go any higher so 4 is the answer
Divide both sides by -2
-2(2x-1)=3x+16
distribute
-4x+2=3x+16
add 4x to both sides
2=7x+16
minus 16 from both sides
-14=7x
divide both sides by 7
-2=x
