Slope intercept form:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept:

We Know the slope (m=2)and we have a point (4,2) then:
x₀=4
y₀=2
we have to find "b"
y=mx+b
2=2(4)+b
8+b=2
b=2-8
b=-6

Therefore:
if b=-6 and m=2; the equation in slope intercept form would be:
y=2x-6

If the solution to y=4x+3 is (4,16) what would the steps needed to get (4,16) be?
Ainat [17]
<span>Simplifying x4 = 16
 Solving x4 = 16
 Solving for variable 'x'.
  Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Simplifying x4 = 16
 Reorder the terms: -16 + x4 = 16 + -16
 Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0 -16 + x4 = 0
 Factor a difference between two squares. (4 + x2)(-4 + x2) = 0
 Factor a difference between two squares. (4 + x2)((2 + x)(-2 + x)) = 0
Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(4 + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
 Simplifying 4 + x2 = 0 Solving 4 + x2 = 0
 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
 Add '-4' to each side of the equation. 4 + -4 + x2 = 0 + -4
 Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0 0 + x2 = 0 + -4 x2 = 0 + -4
 Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4 x2 = -4
 Simplifying x2 = -4
The solution to this equation could not be determined.
 This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(2 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
 Simplifying 2 + x = 0 Solving 2 + x = 0
 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
 Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + x = 0 + -2 x = 0 + -2
 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 x = -2 Simplifying x = -2

Sub-problem 3

Set the factor '(-2 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
 Simplifying -2 + x = 0 Solving -2 + x = 0
 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
 Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + x = 0 + 2
 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + x = 0 + 2 x = 0 + 2
 Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2 x = 2 Simplifying x = 2Solutionx = {-2, 2}</span>

Find the angle of elevation of the sun from the ground to the top of a tree when a tree that is 10 yards tall casts a shadow 14
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The angle of elevation of the sun from the ground to the top of a tree is 36^{\circ}.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The sun from the ground to the top of a tree when a tree that is 10 yards tall casts a shadow 14 yards long.

Now by using the trignometric identity .

tan\theta =\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

As figure is  given below .

AB =  Perpendicular = 10 yards

BC =  Base = 14 yards

Putting all the values in the trignometric identity .

tan\theta =\frac{AB}{BC}

tan\theta =\frac{10}{14}

\theta =tan^{-1}(\frac{10}{14})

\theta =36^{\circ}

Therefore the angle of elevation of the sun from the ground to the top of a tree is 36^{\circ}.

Brandon buys a radio for $45.45 in a state where the sales tax is 7%.
svlad2 [7]
Given : Brandon buys a radio for $45.99 .sales tax rate is 7%.sales tax is a consumption tax imposed by the government on the sale of goods and services.
Let the price of Radio before the sales tax be $x. Sales tax on $x is 7% x.
Price before sales tax + Amount of sales tax= Cost of Radio.
x+7%x =45.99
Or x+0.07x=45.99
1.07x=45.99
Dividing both sides by 1.07.
x= 41.11
Cost of Radio before tax = $41.11
Sales tax paid = 43.99-41.11= 2.88
Tax paid = $2.90 (To nearest cent)
