Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You first find the slope:

(2 - (-1))/(3 - (-6)) =

3/9 =

1/3

This means the equation of the line is y = (1/3)x + b, where b is a real number.

Plug in either of the points to find the value of b:

-1 = (1/3)(-6) + b -->

-1 = -2 +b -->

1 = b

This means the equation is y = (1/3)x + 1

Find the velocity first, the "slope".

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(95.5-53)/(4-2)

m=21.25  ?  Your equations are wrong, I'll double check with another set of points...

m=(350.5-308)/(16-14)

m=21.25  LOL, yep none of your lines has the correct slope.

Anyway...

y=21.25x+b, using any point we can solve for the y-intercept, or "b", (2, 53)

53=21.25(2)+b

53=42.5+b

10.5=b so the distance to the lighthouse as a function of time is:

y=21.25x+10.5

So essentially, you should fire your teacher or burn that book you are using :)

What’s the answer for this?? Help (foolish answers will be reported)
kondaur [170]

Answer:

the answer is b

Step-by-step explanation:

they should have the same slope so just looking at that you cancel out d. But since it says has a y-intercept of 1 then it would cancel out the other 2. d is perpendicular to it not parallel

What are the values of a and b in the figure?
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

a = <u>76°</u>

b = <u>124°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines are parallel, we can prove that the smaller triangle's missing angle (shares a line with ∠b) is 56°.

180-56=124°

∠b=124°

Now to find Angle A:

180-56-48=

124-48=

76°

∠a=76°
