Given points
(x₁,y₁) = (3,4)
(x₂,y₂) = (1,5)

FIRST
Find the slope of the line. This is general formula to determine the slope
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Plug in the numbers to the formula
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
m = (5 - 4)/(1 - 3)
m = 1/(-2)
m = -1/2

SECOND
Determine the line equation
This is general formula to determine the line equation
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Plug in the numbers
y - 4 = -1/2 (x - 3)
y - 4 = (-1/2)x + 3/2
y = (-1/2)x + 3/2 + 4
y = (-1/2)x + 11/2
(this is the equation of the line)

What is the factorization of 1000x^6 - 27?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Cube root 1000x^6 = 10x^2

Cube root of - 27 = 3

So the first part of the factorization process is 10x^2 - 3. There is no help here because all of the answers give this binomial as the first factor.

The second factor is (10x^2)^2 + (3)*10x^2 + 3^2)

Expanding you get 100x^4 + 30x^2 + 9

Be very careful when looking at 100x^4 because that is where the answer is found.

It has to be B

What are the missing sides and angles of this triangle? What is the area?
Butoxors [25]
This does not appear to be a right triangle.  However, we know 2 sides and the included angle, so can find the unknown side length.  Let x represent this length.  Then:

x^2 = (9 m)^2 + (12 m)^2 - 2(9m)(12 m)*cos 30 degrees, or

x^2 = 81 + 144 - 216(sqrt(3) / 2).  Please solve for x^2 and then solve the result for x, making sure to choose the positive value.  The result will be the length of the side opposite the 30 degree angle.

With 1 of 3 angles known, and 3 of 3 sides known, you can use the Law of Sines to find the other two angles.  As a reminder, the Law of Sines looks like this:

   a            b              c
-------- = --------- = ----------
sin A       sin B       sin C.

You can give the 30-deg angle any name you want; then a, the length of the side opposite the 30-deg angle, which you have just found.  And so on.
