An airplane changes in altitude before landing is shown.what equation represents this change in altitude

Answer:

We have been given a table that represents the altitude of an airplane with passing minutes.

Since we know that equation of a line in slope-intercept form is: y=mx+b, where, m = Slope of the line and b = y-intercept.

To find the equation of line we will have to the slope of our given line using values from table.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}, where,

y_2-y_1 = Change in two y-coordinates.

x_2-x_1 = Change in the corresponding x-coordinates.

Upon substituting the coordinates of point (1, 35000) and (2, 31000) we will get our slope as:

m=\frac{31000-35000}{2-1}

m=\frac{-4000}{1}=-4000

Now let us find y-intercept of our given line by substituting m=-4000 and the coordinates of point (1, 35000) in slope intercept form of equation.

31000=-4000*1+b

31000=-4000+b

31000+4000=-4000+4000+b

35000=b

Upon substituting the value of slope and y-intercept the equation of line will be:

a=-4000m+35,000

Therefore, the equation representing the change in altitude a after m minutes is a=-4000m+35,000 and option A is the correct c

The quotient of a number and negative eight is five-eighths. Find the number.
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

-64/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, the word "quotient" means the answer to a division problem. Therefore, its a division problem, so you have to work backwards with multiplication. -8 times a number is 5/8, so the other number is going to be negative.

The number is -64/5

Can anyone help me, i will give brainiest.
laila [671]

Answer: ∠DOB: 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. we need an equation first. the sum of all angles (108°, n°, 2n°) is equal to 180°. we can depict this with the equation: 108°+2n°+n°=180°

2. now we can solve for the missing variable, n.

108°+3n°=180° → subtract both sides by → 3n°=72° → divide both sides by 3 → n=24°

3. now that we know that n=24°, we can solve the value of ∠DOB. we can see that ∠DOB is 2n° which we just plug the number we got for n into the equation. 2*24=48° meaning ∠DOB is 48°

hope this heped! ♡

2×|x|+19=167 find the values of x
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

x = 74

Step-by-step explanation:

2 * x + 19 = 167

2x + 19 = 167

So we have to subtract 19 from both sides

2x = 148

Divide both sides by 2

x = 74
