Answer:

B is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is $3x-y=1$

Convert this equation in slope intercept form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Subtract 3x to both sides of the given equation

$-y=-3x+1$

Divide both sides by -1

$y=3x-1$

On comparing this equation with slope intercept form of a line y= mx+b

m = 3, b = -1

Hence, slope of the given line is 3.

Now, we know that parallel line have same slope.

Thus, slope of the required line is equal to the slope of given line.

Therefore, the slope of the required line is 3.

The answer is B, because you must put the equation into the y=mx+b order so you subtract -3x on both sides to be left with -y=-3x+1 and you then divide the entire equation (both sides) by -1 because y cannot be negative which leaves you with y=3x-1 so the slope id 3 and the y intercept is -1

a new rectangular park is planned.it will be 3/4 kilometer long and have an area of 3/8 square kilometers. how many kilometers w

kakasveta [241]

<em>The word usage in last sentence of the question is not well presented. However, I can understand that you intend to solve for the width of the park</em>

Answer:

$Width = 2\ km$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Length = \frac{3}{8}km$

$Area = \frac{3}{4}km^2$

Required

Determine the Width

For a rectangle:

$Area = Length * Width$

Substitute for Area and Length

$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{8} * Width$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{8}{3}$

$\frac{8}{3} * \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{8} * \frac{8}{3}* Width$

$\frac{8}{3} * \frac{3}{4} = Width$

$\frac{24}{12} = Width$

$2 = Width$

$Width = 2\ km$

h(x)= \dfrac{1}{8} x^3 - x^2h(x)= 8 1 x 3 −x 2 h, left parenthesis, x, right parenthesis, equals, start fraction, 1, divided b

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function $h(x)=\dfrac{1}{8}x^3-x^2$

The average rate of change of the function h(x) over the interval $a\le x\le b$ can be calculated using formula

$\dfrac{h(b)-h(a)}{b-a}$

In your case,

$a=-2,\\ \\b=2,$

so the average rate of change is

$\dfrac{h(2)-h(-2)}{2-(-2)}\\ \\=\dfrac{(\frac{1}{8}\cdot 2^3-2^2)-(\frac{1}{8}\cdot (-2)^3-(-2)^2)}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{(1-4)-(-1-4)}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{-3+5}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{2}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{2}$
