What is the equation of the line through (-5,-1) & (3,-3)?

Answer:

y = -1/4x - 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do this algebraically then use formula:

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

In other words, M= (-3 - (-1)) / (3 - (-5))

M= (-2) / (8)

M= -1/4 <-- This is your slope

To find y-intercept:

Substitute M in the slope-intercept equation (y=mx+b) with -1/4, y=-1/4x+b

Next, Substitute y and x with either point (-5, -1) or (3,-3)

-1 = -1/4(-5) + b   <-- Solve for B

-1.25    -1 = 1.25 + b   -1.25

-2.25 = b

Now just substitute b and m, and there's your answer:

y = -1/4x - 2.25

Hope this helps!

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

  1. LA = 21.7 ft²; C = 18.8 ft; h = 2.3 ft
  2. h = 8 in; r = 7 in; SA = 330.1 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Applicable relations are ...

  C = 2πr . . . . . . . r = radius, C = circumference

  LA = 1/2·Ch . . . . h = slant height, LA = lateral area

  SA = πr² +LA . . . SA = total surface area

__

1. Given r and SA, we can find the other measures as ...

  LA = SA -πr² = 50 ft² -π(3 ft)² ≈ 21.7 ft²

  C = 2πr = 2π(3 ft) ≈ 18.8 ft

  h = 2·LA/C ≈ 2·21.7 ft²/(18.8 ft) ≈ 2.3 ft

(Please note that for calculations using intermediate results, we used the full-precision values of those results, not the rounded ones. Rounding is always the last operation. Please note, too, that we have used a value for π sufficient to ensure accuracy in all the digits shown here.)

__

2. Given C and LA, we can find the other measures as ...

  h = 2·LA/C = 2(176 in²)/(44 in) = 8 in

  r = C/(2π) = (44 in)/(2π) ≈ 7.0 in

  SA = LA +πr² = LA +rC/2 ≈ 176 in² +(7.0 in)(44 in)/2 ≈ 330.1 in²

If the if a cylinder is 7 in tall and has a volume of 63 Pi inches what is the area of the cross section it goes right down the
vitfil [10]

Answer: 9\pi \ in.^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The height of the cylinder is h=7\ in.

The volume of the cylinder is V=63\pi \ in.^3

The volume of the cylinder is the product of area and height

\Rightarrow V=\pi r^2h\\

Insert the values

\Rightarrow 63\pi =A\times 7\\\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{63\pi}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow A=9\pi\ in.^2

Thus, the area of the cross-section is 9\pi \ in.^2
