Answer:

y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know the slope, so the only thing left to find is the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, we can <u>plug in the slope and point to the slope-intercept form equation</u> (y = mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-int.)

y   =     m *  x    + b

(7) = (-8/9)*(-7)   + b

<u>Now, just solve for b!</u>

(7) = (-8/9)*(-7)   + b

7 = 56/9 + b

7 - (56/9) = b

b = 0.777777 (repeating decimal, usually signified by a little line above the 7)

so now we just <u>plug in the slope and y-intercept we found into y = mx + b.</u>

y = mx + b

y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777

Answer:

Use the two point formula to find the equation of the line through two given points (x, y) and (X² X¹) is y-y¹/x-x² = y²-y¹/x²-x¹

A) You can drop hammer and a feather, both will reach ground at the same time ( it was actually done in Apollo mission)

b) i. Yes, it is similar to weightlessness experienced by astronauts

ii. The phenomenon of "weightlessness" occurs when there is no force of support on your body. When your body is effectively in "free fall" in roller coaster, accelerating downward at the acceleration of gravity, then you are not being supported.
Just like astronauts in space feel no force of support that we on earth feel due to gravity.

Danielle earns $36.80 for 4 hours of yardwork. MacKenzie earns $50.40 for 6 hours of yardwork.Who earns more money per hour? How
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Danielle earns $1.20 more than Mackenzie (per hour)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much money per hour each person earns, you would divide the earinings by the number of hours;

Danielle: $36.80/4 = $9.20 per hour

MackKenzie: $50.40/6 = $8.40 per hour

To find out how much extra Danielle earns, you would subtract 8.40 from 9.20;

9.40 - 8.20 = $1.20

Thus, Danielle earns $1.20 more than Mackenzie per hour.

What is the value of y?<br><br> Enter your answer, as an exact value, in the box.
Amanda [17]
So for the 40-40-90 degree triangle, whenever the two legs are x values, then the hypotenuse is x value times the square root of 2.

--> a changed into a√2
√2 changed in √2 * √2
= 2

So the hypotenuse of the 40-40-90 degree triangle is 2.

Now for the 30-60-90 degree triangle, the smallest leg with the value of x is then changed to the value of x√3 if finding the longer leg.

-> a is changed to a√3
2 is changed into 2√3


So, y is 2√3 or approximately 3.46 units.
