I NEED HELP! Write an equation in standard form of the line

nadezda [96]

Answers:

First box = 1
Second box = -5
Third box = -15

This forms the equation 1x-5y = -15, which is the same as x-5y = -15

=================================================================

Explanation:

Let's find the slope. I'll pick the first two rows to form the two points needed

(x1,y1) = (0,3)

(x2,y2) = (10,5)

These are then plugged into the slope formula.

m = slope

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

m = (5-3)/(10-0)

m = 2/10

m = 1/5

m = 0.2

The y intercept is b = 3 since this is the y value when x = 0.

With m = 0.2 and b = 3, we go from y = mx+b to y = 0.2x+3

Let's multiply both sides by 5 to turn that decimal value into a whole number. I'm picking 5 since 0.2 = 1/5

So we get

y = 0.2x+3

5y = 5*(0.2x+3)

5y = 5*0.2x+5*3

5y = x+15

Now let's get x and y together, but move that 15 to its own side

5y = x+15

x+15 = 5y

x = 5y-15

x-5y = -15

This is one way to write the equation in standard form.

Standard form is Ax+By = C, where A,B,C are integers. Some math textbooks insist that A > 0. In this case, A = 1, B = -5, and C = -15.

----------------------

As a way to check, we can plug in (x,y) = (15,6) from the third row of the table to see that..

x-5y = -15

15-5(6) = -15

15 - 30 = -15

-15 = -15

This verifies the third row. I'll let you check the first two rows of the table to fully confirm this equation works.

-0.59x+0.29=7.2 HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

kaheart [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.59x+0.29=7.2

-0.59x+0.29-0.29=7.2-0.29

-0.59x=7.2

divide both sides by -0.59

x=− 11.7118644

that can be rounded to x= -11.7

On an alien planet with no atmosphere, acceleration due to gravity is given by g = 12m/s^2. A cannonball is launched from the or

almond37 [142]

Answer:

a) $\vec r (t) = \left[(90\cdot \cos \theta)\cdot t \right]\cdot i + \left[(90\cdot \sin \theta)\cdot t -6\cdot t^{2} \right]\cdot j$ , b) $\theta = \frac{\pi}{4}$ , c) $y_{max} = 84.375\,m$ , $t = 3.75\,s$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The function in terms of time and the inital angle measured from the horizontal is:

$\vec r (t) = [(v_{o}\cdot \cos \theta)\cdot t]\cdot i + \left[(v_{o}\cdot \sin \theta)\cdot t -\frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot t^{2} \right]\cdot j$

The particular expression for the cannonball is:

$\vec r (t) = \left[(90\cdot \cos \theta)\cdot t \right]\cdot i + \left[(90\cdot \sin \theta)\cdot t -6\cdot t^{2} \right]\cdot j$

b) The components of the position of the cannonball before hitting the ground is:

$x = (90\cdot \cos \theta)\cdot t$

$0 = 90\cdot \sin \theta - 6\cdot t$

After a quick substitution and some algebraic and trigonometric handling, the following expression is found:

$0 = 90\cdot \sin \theta - 6\cdot \left(\frac{x}{90\cdot \cos \theta} \right)$

$0 = 8100\cdot \sin \theta \cdot \cos \theta - 6\cdot x$

$0 = 4050\cdot \sin 2\theta - 6\cdot x$

$6\cdot x = 4050\cdot \sin 2\theta$

$x = 675\cdot \sin 2\theta$

The angle for a maximum horizontal distance is determined by deriving the function, equalizing the resulting formula to zero and finding the angle:

$\frac{dx}{d\theta} = 1350\cdot \cos 2\theta$

$1350\cdot \cos 2\theta = 0$

$\cos 2\theta = 0$

$2\theta = \frac{\pi}{2}$

$\theta = \frac{\pi}{4}$

Now, it is required to demonstrate that critical point leads to a maximum. The second derivative is:

$\frac{d^{2}x}{d\theta^{2}} = -2700\cdot \sin 2\theta$

$\frac{d^{2}x}{d\theta^{2}} = -2700$

Which demonstrates the existence of the maximum associated with the critical point found before.

c) The equation for the vertical component of position is:

$y = 45\cdot t - 6\cdot t^{2}$

The maximum height can be found by deriving the previous expression, which is equalized to zero and critical values are found afterwards:

$\frac{dy}{dt} = 45 - 12\cdot t$

$45-12\cdot t = 0$

$t = \frac{45}{12}$

$t = 3.75\,s$

Now, the second derivative is used to check if such solution leads to a maximum:

$\frac{d^{2}y}{dt^{2}} = -12$

Which demonstrates the assumption.

The maximum height reached by the cannonball is:

$y_{max} = 45\cdot (3.75\,s)-6\cdot (3.75\,s)^{2}$

$y_{max} = 84.375\,m$
