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

What is the domain of the relation?<br><br> Express your answer using inequalities.
son4ous [18]

Answer:

-6<x<0

  -    -

Step-by-step explanation:

make them less than or equal to signs, I don't know how to do that on a computer, I hope I am correct

point one on the left is -6, point 2 on the right is 0 (in terms of the x-axis, that's what domain is )

when there is arrows in the graph, the x/y is always in the middle.

Good luck! Hope I'm not late!

A lidless box is to be made using 2m^2 of cardboard find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard
Jlenok [28]
1.8, Problem 37: A lidless cardboard box is to be made with a volume of 4 m3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard. Solution: If the dimensions of our box are x, y, and z, then we’re seeking to minimize A(x, y, z) = xy + 2xz + 2yz subject to the constraint that xyz = 4. Our first step is to make the first function a function of just 2 variables. From xyz = 4, we see z = 4/xy, and if we substitute this into A(x, y, z), we obtain a new function A(x, y) = xy + 8/y + 8/x. Since we’re optimizing something, we want to calculate the critical points, which occur when Ax = Ay = 0 or either Ax or Ay is undefined. If Ax or Ay is undefined, then x = 0 or y = 0, which means xyz = 4 can’t hold. So, we calculate when Ax = 0 = Ay. Ax = y − 8/x2 = 0 and Ay = x − 8/y2 = 0. From these, we obtain x 2y = 8 = xy2 . This forces x = y = 2, which forces z = 1. Calculating second derivatives and applying the second derivative test, we see that (x, y) = (2, 2) is a local minimum for A(x, y). To show it’s an absolute minimum, first notice that A(x, y) is defined for all choices of x and y that are positive (if x and y are arbitrarily large, you can still make z REALLY small so that xyz = 4 still). Therefore, the domain is NOT a closed and bounded region (it’s neither closed nor bounded), so you can’t apply the Extreme Value Theorem. However, you can salvage something: observe what happens to A(x, y) as x → 0, as y → 0, as x → ∞, and y → ∞. In each of these cases, at least one of the variables must go to ∞, meaning that A(x, y) goes to ∞. Thus, moving away from (2, 2) forces A(x, y) to increase, and so (2, 2) is an absolute minimum for A(x, y).
