-3x-4y=-12 Need to find the slope and y-intercept

2 answers:

8 0

For this you want to put it into slope-intercept form: y=mx+b

-3x-4y=-12
add over -3x
-4y=3x-12
divide by -4
y=-3/4x + 3 (now it's in the right form!)

The slope is m (-3/4)
and the y intercept is b (3)

In form
ax+by=c
slope=-a/b
y intercpept=c/b

so

-3x-4y=-12
a=-3
b=-4
c=-12
slope=-(-3)/-4=3/-4=-3/4
yint=-12/-4=3

slope=-3/4
yint is 3

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are represented by 3m, 3m and 3m.

Aleks04 [339]

Q1: The perimeter of the triangle is a + b + c and if each side is the same then it's 3a. In this situation we may write it in its simplest form as 9m. Note that 3(3m) is also correct but it's not the simplest form.

Q2: You're correct, the distributive property of 3(3m) can be written as 3 (2m + m).

A triangle with sides 11m , 13m and 18m is a right triangle. A True B False

Julli [10]

$\bold{\huge{\pink{\underline{ Solution}}}}$

$\bold{\underline{ Given :-}}$

A triangle with sides 11m, 13m and 18m

$\bold{\underline{ To \: Find :-}}$

We have to check it whether it is right angled triangle or not?

$\bold{\underline{ Let's \: Begin :-}}$

$\sf{\red{ In \:right \:angled\ : triangle, }}$

According to the Pythagoras theorem, The sum of the squares of perpendicular height and the square of the base of the triangle is equal to the square of hypotenuse that is sum of the squares of two small sides equal to the square of longest side of the triangle.

We imply it in the given triangle ,

$\sf{\red{ ( Perpendicular)² + (Base)² = (Hypotenuse)²}}$

$\sf{(AB)² + (BC)² = (AC)²}$

$\sf{ (11)² + (13)² = (18)² }$

$\sf{ 121 + 169 ≠ 324 }$

$\sf{ 290 ≠ 324 }$

From Above we can conclude that,

The sum of the squares of two small sides that is perpendicular height and base is not equal to the square of longest side that is Hypotenuse

$\sf{\blue{ Hence,\: Your\: answer \:is \:false }}$

What are arithmetic sequences

Hitman42 [59]

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same. For example, the sequence 3, 5, 7, 9 ... is arithmetic because the difference between consecutive terms is always two.

Please help me with this I will mark you as brainliest!

iragen [17]

Answer:

.74

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you know that 30% are boys and 70% are girls. Then, take 60% of 30% and 70% of 80%. From there you get .74 as the probability of a randomly chosen child having taken a car to school.
