What is the slope of the line shown below (- 1, 8) (2, - 4)

Mathematics

Answer:

The slope of the line can be determined from the gradient equation, rise (y axis)/ run (x-axis)

Hence let (-1, 8) be A and (2, -4) be B. The slope from A to B is (-4-8)/(2-(-1))= (-12)/3= -4

Hence the gradient/ slope of the line is -4.

A skateboard halfpipe is being designed for a competition. The halfpipe will be in the shape of a parabola and will be positione
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Option A , (0, 20); y equals one over eighty times x squared plus 20

Step-by-step explanation:

 

The equation of parabola is given by  

(X-h)^2 = 4p(Y-k)^2

In this case h = 0  

So we get  

Y = X^2/4P +k

Focus point is (h, p+k) , p+k = 40  

Hence h, k = (0,20)

P = 40-k = 20

Equation Y = X^2/80 +20  

Hence, option A is correct

Four friends were born in consecutive years. The sum of their ages is 94. What is the age of the oldest friend?
Savatey [412]
Hello,

We don't need algebra to solve this.

I suppose the ages are 1,2,3,4
Their sum is 1+2+3+4=10.
To obtain 94 we must add 94-10=84 for 4 persons =>84/4=21 to each

Ages are
1+21=22
2+21=23
3+21=24
4+21=25

But if really want an algebric resolution:

Let's x the age of the youngest
x+1,x+2,x+3 the others.

x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)=94
==>4x+6=94
==>4x=88
==>x=22
Ages are 22,23,24,25.

The oldest friend is 25 years old.

The diameter of the circle is the same as the side length of the bounding square. The radius of the circle is 8 in, so the side length of the square is 16 in.

Then the area between the square and circle is obtained by subtracting the area of the circle from the area of the square:

A_{\rm circle}=\pi(8\,\mathrm{in})^2=64\pi\,\mathrm{in}^2

A_{\rm square}=(16\,\mathrm {in})^2=256\,\mathrm{in}^2

and the area you want is

256-64\pi\,\mathrm{in}^2\approx54.9\,\mathrm{in}^2
