Answer:

The slope is -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need two points to find the slope

We have one point at (0,5) and we have one point at (4,2)

We can use the slope formula

m = (y2-y2)/(x2-x1)

   = (2-5)/( 4-0)

   = -3/4

The slope is -3/4

Answer:

-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Get the coordinates of 2 points on the line:

  • (0, 5) and (4, 2)

Use formula to find the slope:

  • m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
  • m=(2-5)/(4-0)= -3/4

So the slope is -3/4

Linda goes water-skiing one sunny afternoon. After skiing for 15 min, she signals to the driver of the boat to take her back to
trasher [3.6K]
60 = a * (-30)^2
a = 1/15
So y = (1/15)x^2


abc)
The derivative of this function is 2x/15. This is the slope of a tangent at that point.
If Linda lets go at some point along the parabola with coordinates (t, t^2 / 15), then she will travel along a line that was TANGENT to the parabola at that point.
Since that line has slope 2t/15, we can determine equation of line using point-slope formula:
y = m(x-x0) + y0
y = 2t/15 * (x - t) + (1/15)t^2
Plug in the x-coordinate "t" that was given for any point.


d)
We are looking for some x-coordinate "t" of a point on the parabola that holds the tangent line that passes through the dock at point (30, 30).
So, use our equation for a general tangent picked at point (t, t^2 / 15):
y = 2t/15 * (x - t) + (1/15)t^2
And plug in the condition that it must satisfy x=30, y=30.
30 = 2t/15 * (30 - t) + (1/15)t^2
t = 30 ± 2√15 = 8.79 or 51.21
The larger solution does in fact work for a tangent that passes through the dock, but it's not important for us because she would have to travel in reverse to get to the dock from that point.
So the only solution is she needs to let go x = 8.79 m east and y = 5.15 m north of the vertex.

During a sale, a dress is marked down form a selling price of $90 to a sale price of $81. What is the percent of markdown?
Alex_Xolod [135]
The percent of the mark down would be 10%. If you subtract 81 from 90, you get 9. Then divide 90 by 9 and you get 10. Hope this helps!
