What is tje equation for the linear function whose graph contains the points (2,5) and (3,0) ?

1 answer:

4 0

In order to find a slope, there is an equation:

Y2-Y1/X2-X1

X1=2
X2=3
Y1=5
Y2=0

0-5= -5
3-2=1

Since slope is written as Y/X, slope would be-5/1 or simply, -5.

Now, we need to find the y-intercept.

To do this, shift the original equation:

Original equation: y=-5x+b

Shifted equation: b=y+5x

Now, plug in one of the points.

Let's use (2,5)

b=5+5(2)

5*2=10
10+5=15

y-intercept=15

So, the full equation of the line would be:

y=-5x+15

rank has a circular garden. The area of the garden is 100 ft2. What is the approximate distance from the edge of Frank’s garden

Ray Of Light [21]

It is given that the area of the circular garden = 100 $ft^2$

Area of circle with radius 'r' = $\pi r^2$

We have to determine the approximate distance from the edge of Frank’s garden to the center of the garden, that means we have to determine the radius of the circular garden.

Since, area of circular garden = 100

$\pi r^2 = 100$
