2*3=6

Multiply 3 to 16.

3*16= 48

The pole is 48 feet long.

I hope this helps!

Please help me find the slope of the line graphed below!
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

slope = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 3) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{-3-0}{0+1} = \frac{-3}{1} = - 3

<span>10.
if we were to subsitute the points and graph the equation we would notice that the shape is the same for both: a 45 degree angle line that goes upleft and up right
the graph of y=|x| looks like a right angle corner that is facing up that is ballancing on the point (0,0)
the graph of y=|x|-4 is the same except that the graph is shifter 4 units to the right ie. the point ofo the graph/rightangle is on point (4,0)

slope intercept form which is y=mx+b
m=slope b=y intercept
m=4/3
y=4/3x+b
one given solution/point is (9,-1)
one solution is x=9 and y=-1 so subsitute and solve fo b
-1=4/3(9)+b
-1=36/3+b
-1=12+b
subtract 12 from both sides
-11=b
the equation si y=4/3x-11
see which one converts to the correct form
after trial and error we find that y-1=4/3(x-9) is the answer

Graph the function.<br><br> y = 1/5 (3)^x<br><br> Graph A. B. C. or D?
patriot [66]

The function y=3^x is incresing and have positive values for all x. Then the function y=\dfrac{1}{5}\cdot 3^x is also increasing and have positive values for all x. This means that options B (values are negative) and D (function is decreasing) are incorrect.

At x=0, y=\dfrac{1}{5} \cdot 3^x=\dfrac{1}{5} \cdot 3^0=\dfrac{1}{5} \cdot 1=\dfrac{1}{5}.

In option A graph of the function passes through point (0,y), where y is near 3. In option C graph of the function passes through point (0,y), where y is near 1/5. So, you can conclude that the option C is correct.
