For finding the value of b, we must consider that Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). With this condition y = mx + b, can be written 3=4m+ b (because line passes through M(4,3) ) and 12=7m+b, b ( because line passes through M(7,12)). We have a system of equation 4m+ b=3 7m+b=12 For solving this, 4m+b- (7m+b)= 3-12, it is equivalent to -3m= -9 and then m=3, if m=3 so 4x3 +b =3 implies b= 3 -12= -9, so the value of b= -9 <span>

A regular pentagon is shown. A regular pentagon has side lengths of 9.4 centimeters and a radius of 8 centimeters. What is the l
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

6.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the length of the apothem is shown below:

Given that

The side length is 9.4 centimeters

And, the radius is 8 centimeters

Now based on the above information

As per the attached figure  

AB = 8 cm

BC = 9.4 ÷ 2 = 4.7 cm

Now apply the pythagoras theorem

AB^2 = BC^2 + AC^2

8^2 = 4.7^2 + AC^2

AC^2 = 41.91

AC = 6.47 cm

= 6.5 cm

Maria is installing gutters on her rectangular shed that measures 10 ft by 9 ft she has 23 ft of gutter already and need to purc
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate the perimeter of the rectangular shed to know how much  5 feet gutter is needed.

The perimeter of the shed is p = 2(l + b) where l = 10ft and b = 9 ft

p = 2(10 + 9) = 2(19) = 38 ft

Now, the perimeter of the shed also equal 23 ft of gutter already installed plus 5x ft gutter where x = number of gutters.

So 23 + 5x = 38

collecting like terms, we have

5x = 38 - 23

5x = 15

dividing through by 5 we have

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 15/5

x = 3

So, Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.

Find the equation of the line that passes through the two points (5,-3) and (-5,2). Write your answer in standard form. Help me
lidiya [134]

Answer:

x + 2y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we'll find the slope.

Slope = (2 - (-3)) / (-5 - 5) = 5 / -10 = -1/2

Since we know the slope and a point that belongs to the line, we can write this in point-slope form which will be:

y - 2 = -1/2(x - (-5))      *I used (-5, 2) but it doesn't matter which point you use

y = -1/2(x + 5) + 2

y = -1/2x - 1/2

Standard form:

1/2x + y = -1/2

x + 2y = -1
