Answer:

For figure 1: The equation of a line is y=1

For figure 2: The equation of a line is y=(-4)x+1

For figure 3:The equation of a line is y= $\frac{-5}{2}x+5$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line slope-intercept form is given by y=mx+c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.

For figure 1:

Here, Line is parallel to x-axis

Hence, Slope m=0

Also, Line passing to y axis at (0,1)

Y-intercept is c=1

Therefore,

The equation of line is

y=0x+1

y=1

For figure 2:

Figure show a line passing through point (1,-3) and (-1,5)

The slope of the line is given by m= $\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$

Using given points to find out the slope of a line

m= $\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$

m= $\frac{5-(-3)}{(-1)-1}$

m= $\frac{8}{-2}$

m=(-4)

Also, Line is intersecting y-axis at (0,1)

Hence, c=1

We can write the equation of line as

y=mx+c

y=(-4)x+1

Thus, The correct option is D). y=(-4)x+1

For figure 3:

From the figure, a line is passing through points (-2,0) and (0,5)

The slope of the line is given by m= $\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$

Using given points to find out the slope of a line

m= $\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$

m= $\frac{5-0}{0-(-2)}$

m= $\frac{-5}{2}$

Also, Line is intersecting y-axis at (0,5)

Hence, c=5

We can write the equation of line as

y=mx+c

y= $\frac{-5}{2}x+5$

A flash disk has the capacity of storing 1 megabyte of data. How many kilobytes of data can be stored in the same flash disk

Luden [163]

For this sort of problem, you need to be familiar with prefixes.

So:

megabyte = $1 *10^6$ bytes

kilobyte = $1*10^3$ bytes

and a regular byte would just be $1$

Now, you will need to do a conversion:

$1megabyte*\frac{1*10^6bytes}{1megabyte}*\frac{1*10^{-3}kilobyte}{1byte}$

I'm going to explain this just in case, but we convert megabytes to regular bytes in the first half by using the information I gave you above. (In one megabyte, there are $1*10^6$ bytes!)

In the second fraction thought, remember one kilobyte is $1*10^3$ bytes. However, you usually only see one of each thing on the bottom of fractions, so you need to add a negative sign to the 3. (technically you could just do $\frac{1kilobyte}{1*10^3bytes}$ , but I think it is more correct to do write it out how I did).

*** They do equal the same thing though! Do whichever way is easier for you!

Now, your answer should be:

$10^3$ kilobytes (1000 kilobytes)

A hammock that hangs between two trees makes a parabola shape that has the equation y = 0.4(x- 3)² +1, where x is the distance f

34kurt

Answer:

A. The lowest point of the hammock is at the point 1 meters above the ground and 3 meters from one end of the hammock

B. The two trees are 6 meters away from one another

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of the parabola representing the hammock is as follows;

y = 0.4·(x - 3)² + 1

The general equation of a parabola is a·(x - h)² + k;

Where the coordinates of the vertex point of the parabola, which is the lowest (or highest, furthest) point on the vertex is (h, k) = (3, 1)

Therefore, we have;

A, The coordinates of the lowest point on the hammock is (3, 1)

Therefore, the lowest point of the hammock is at 1 meters above the ground and 3 meters from one end of the hammock

B. Given that the distance from one end is "x", we have;

The height at which the hammock is attached is given as the point where x = 0 as follows;

Given that the vertex of the parabola represents the axis of symmetry of the parabola, we have that the horizontal distance from one end of the hammock to the vertex point of the parabola that the hammock forms is (3 - 0) meters = 3 meters

Therefore, by the definition of symmetry, the distance from the vertex point to the other end of the parabola that the hammock forms is also 3 meters

From which we have, the distance the two trees are from one another is 3 meters + 3 meters = 6 meters.

A point (3, –2) is reflected across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis. Find the image of the point after the

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

D. (-3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The original point is (3, -2)

The rule for reflecting across the x-axis is (x, y) -> (x, -y)

(3, -2) -> (3, 2)

The rule for reflecting across the y-axis is (x, y) -> (-x, y)

(3, 2) -> (-3, 2)

A person invests 2000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 4.75% interest compounded

grin007 [14]

Answer:

t = 2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Use formula provided

2. A = 3500 B = 2000 r = 4.75 n = 12months/4 = 3 months t = ?

3. Solve

3500=2000(1+4.75/3)^3t

3t=logbase(31/12)*1500

t=logbase(31/12)*1500 / 3

t ≅2.568
