Answer:
No, doubling the base and height would actually quadruple the area,
Step-by-step explanation:
With the original measurements of b = 3 ft and h = 5 ft,
<em>b x h = A</em>
<em>(3) x (5) = </em><em>15 ft</em>
So lets say we <em>doubled</em> the factors:
<em>(2)(3) x (2)(5) = A</em>
We would end up with 60 feet, four times that of 15.
<em>(6) x (10) = </em><em>60 ft</em>
Question 1:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Equation: y = 5x - 2
Slope = 5
Slope of parallel line = 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into the general equation y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 5x + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------------------------
At point (2, -1)
y = 5x + c
-1 = 5(2) + c
c = -1 - 10
c = -11
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into the equation
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 5x + c
y = 5x - 11
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: y = 5x - 11
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Question 2:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x
Slope = 9
Slope of the parallel line = 9
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into the equation y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x + c
At point (0, 5)
5 = 9(0) + c
c = 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into the equation
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x + c
y = 9x + 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: y = 9x + 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
x = 8.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive property:
5*b+5*2+b=20
5b+10+b=20.
Combine like terms:
6b+10=20.
Subtract 10 from both sides:
6b+10-10=20-10
6b=10.
Divide both sides by 6:
6b/6=10/6
b=5/3=1 2/3.
Brian travels 1 2/3 hours. This means Annie travels
5(1 2/3+2)=5(3 2/3)=5(11/3)=55/3=18 1/3 hours.
Hope this helps!
