Answer:

Y=-.5x-34

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because you can do y2-y1/x2-x1 to get slope


-34/68


Which equals one half so currently


Y=-1/2x


To get the y intercept we can look at the number when x=0 so it would be -34. So here is the equation


Y=-.5x-34

y = - \frac{1}{2} x - 34

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

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

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 68, 0 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 34 )

m = \frac{-34-0}{0+68} = \frac{-34}{68} = - \frac{1}{2}

the y-intercept = (0, - 34 ) ⇒ c = - 34

y= - \frac{1}{2} x - 34

Subtracting 10x from the given equation gives
  120 = 15x
Then dividing by 15 gives
  8 = x

Zorah will have to play 8 hours in order to break even (cover her expenses exactly).

Three balls are packaged in a cylindrical container as shown below. The balls just touch the top, bottom, and sides of the cylin
lianna [129]
We know the following:
Cylinder volume: V₁ = π r² h
Ball (sphere) volume:V₂ = \frac{4}{3} π r³
where:
V - volume
r - radius of base of cylinder and diameter of ball
h - height of cylinder.

R = 13 cm ⇒ r = 13 ÷ 2 = 6.5
π = 3.14

a) Since balls touch all sides of cylinder (as shown in image), it can be concluded that height of cylinder is equal to sum of diameters of 3 balls and that radius of base of cylinder is equal to radius of ball:
h = 3 × r = 3 × 13 cm = 39 cm
r = 6.5 cm
So,
V₁ = <span>π r² h
</span><span>V₁ = </span>3.14 × (6.5 cm)² × 39 cm
V₁ = 5,173.9 cm³

b. The total volume of three balls is the sum of volumes of each ball:
Vₐ = 3 × <span>V₂ 
</span>Vₐ = 3 × <span>\frac{4}{3} π r³
</span>Vₐ = 3 × \frac{4}{3} 3.14<span> (6.5 cm)³</span>
Vₐ = 3,449.3 cm³

c. Percentage of the volume of the container occupied by three balls ould be expressed as ratio of volume of three balls and volume of cylinder:
V = \frac{ V_{1}}{ V_{a} } ×100 
V = \frac{3,449.3}{5,173.9} ×100
V = 0.6666 ×100
V = 66.66%

Given right triangle jkl, what is the value of cos(l)? five-thirteenths five-twelfths twelve-thirteenths twelve-fifths
kykrilka [37]

The value of the cosine ratio cos(L) is 5/13

<h3>How to determine the cosine ratio?</h3>

The complete question is added as an attachment


Start by calculating the hypotenuse (h) using

h^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

Evaluate the exponent

h^2 = 25 + 144

Evaluate the sum

h^2 = 169

Evaluate the exponent of both sides

h = 13

The cosine ratio is then calculated as:

cos(L) = KL/h

This gives

cos(L) =5/13

Hence, the value of the cosine ratio cos(L) is 5/13

Need help with this math question (pic included)
Kamila [148]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the only zero for this function is at x = - 4 it looks like this:

f(x)  = (x+4)(x+4)        =    x^2 +8x + 16      <u>   so j = 8 </u>
