Answer:

y -8 = -5(x -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation for a line is generally written ...

y -k = m(x -h)

for slope m and point (h, k).

The slope of your parallel line is the same as the slope of the reference line, -5. So your equation is ...

y -8 = -5(x -6)

The fuel for a chain saw is a mix of oil and gasoline. The ratio of ounces of oil to gallons of gasoline is 9:19. There are 152

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

9/19 = x / 152....9 oz oil to 19 gallons gas = x oz oil to 152 gallons gas
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(19)(x) = (152)(9)
19x = 1368
x = 1368/19
x = 72 oz of oil <==

Can someone help me pls

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

$V_{cylinder} = 189\pi \: cm^3$ (Given)

$h_{cylinder} = 21\: cm$ (Given)

Formula for $V_{cylinder}$ is given as:

$V_{cylinder} = \pi r^2h$

$\implies 189\pi = \pi r^2(21)$

$\implies \frac{ 189\pi}{21\pi} = r^2$

$\implies 9 = r^2$

$\implies \pm\sqrt 9 = r$

$\implies \pm 3 = r$

Length of radius can not negative

$\implies r = 3 \: cm$

Hope it helps you in your learning process.

An isosceles triangle ABC has legs of length 24 and a vertex angle that measures 36º . Determine the length of its base, BC , to

iris [78.8K]

Answer: $BC=14.8$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, an Isosceles triangle has two equal sides and its opposite angles are congruent.

Observe the figure attached, where the isosceles triangle is divided into two equal right triangles.

So, in this case you need to use the following Trigonometric Identity:

$sin\alpha =\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

In this case, you can identify that:

$\alpha =\angle BAD=\angle CAD=18\°\\\\opposite=BD=CD=x\\\\hypotenuse=AB=AC=24$

Substituting values, and solving for "x", you get:

$sin(18\°)=\frac{x}{24}\\\\24*sin(18\°)=x\\\\x=7.416$

Therefore, the length of BC rounded to nearest tenth, is:

$BC=2(7.416)=14.8$
