What is the slope of the line with equation y=-5x

Mathematics

harina [27]3 years ago
3 0
An equation in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In this case, our y-intercept is 0, so we're left with y = -5x.

-5 is in the place of m, which means -5 is our slope.


The slope of y = -5x is -5.

A ball is thrown in the air from a height of 3 m with an initial velocity of 12 m/s. To the nearest tenth of a second, how long
stepladder [879]

Answer:  1.4 seconds

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The equation is: h(t) = at² + v₀t + h₀          where

  • a is the acceleration (in this case it is gravity)
  • v₀ is the initial velocity
  • h₀ is the initial height

Given:  

  • a = -9.81 (if it wasn't given in your textbook, you can look it up)
  • v₀ = 12
  • h₀ = 3

Since we are trying to find out when it lands on the ground, h(t) = 0

EQUATION:   0 = 9.81t² + 12t + 3

Use the quadratic equation to find the x-intercepts

                        a=-9.81, b=12, c=3

x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{-(12)\pm \sqrt{(12)^2-4(-9.81)(3)}}{2(-9.81)}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{-12\pm 16.2}{-19.62}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{-12+ 16.2}{-19.62}=-0.2\qquad x=\dfrac{-12- 16.2}{-19.62}=\large\boxed{1.4}\\

Note: Negative time (-0.2) is not valid

Part A A high school athlete ran the 100 meter sprint in 13.245 seconds. Round the time to the nearest tenth.Part B Explain how
amid [387]

Answer:

t = 13.2 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

An athlete ran the 100 meter sprint in 13.245 seconds. We need to round off the time to the nearest tenth.

Here, t = 13.245 s

In order to round off to the nearest tenth, thousandths place and hundredth place gets eliminated.

So, t = 13.2 s

So, time is 13.2 seconds.

This implies that PM parallel and equal to ON

Also, MN is parallel and equal to OP

Since the diagonals bisect each other it implies that AM=AO and NP=AP

From the question, AO=6

Therefore,AM=6
