Mathematics

neonofarm [45]3 years ago

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis).

Answer:

y-value at intercept = f(0), the value of the function when x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The "y-intercept" of a graph (any graph, not just a straight line) is the y-value obtained when x = 0.  In other words, the y-intercept is the point at which the graph crosses the y-axis (whose equation is x = 0).  Very often the y-intercept represents the initial (beginning) value of functions whose domains include [0, +infinity).

Calculate the length b to two decimal places.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

B. 21.64

Step-by-step explanation:        

We have been given a triangle and we are asked to find the length of AC (b).

We will use law of cosines to find the length of side AC.

c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab \text{ cos }\theta

Upon substituting our given values in the formula we will get,

(AC)^{2}=15^{2}+12^{2}-2\times 15\times 12 \text{ cos}(106)  

(AC)^{2}=225+144-360\text{ cos}(106)      

(AC)^{2}=369-360(-0.275637355817)      

(AC)^{2}=369+99.22944809412    

(AC)^{2}=468.22944809412

Upon taking square root of both sides of our equation we will be get,

AC=\sqrt{468.22944809412}

AC=21.6386101238993629\approx 21.64  

Therefore, the length of b is 21.64 and option B is the correct choice.
