Hello There!
Slope: 1
Equation: y = x - 2
Let's start by finding the slope. To find the slope of a given equation, subtract the y values over the x values.
y1 - y2 / x1 - x2 ⇒ 3 - 0 / 1 - - 2 ⇒ 3 / 3 ⇒ 1
This means we have a slope value of 1.
Now, to find an equation. We will find the equation in slope intercept form, or y = mx + b. (In this case, m = the slope and b = the y-intercept, and x and y equal your x and y values fro a given point.)
To get the equation, we need to find the value of b, or the y intercept. To do this, we need to plug in the values we know into the equation.
we know m is the slope, and we know the slope is one so we can place that into the equation. We also know the points (0,-2) (3,1). We can place one of them into the equation for the values x and y.
1 = 1(3) + b
Now, simplify.
1 = 1(3) + b
1 = 3 + b
-2 = b
So, our y intercept is -2, we can plug that into the equation, making our final equation y = x - 2. We don't need to put y = 1x for the slope since multiplying something by 1 is doesn't change the number.
I hope this helps! I know my explanation might have been kind of confusing so if you need more help let me know in the comments !
Answer: if the width was not effected then the width is still 24 inches
if the area stayed the same, then
find area
area=legnth times width
288=12 times 24
so the new height./legnth =2
288=2 times width
divide by 2
144=width'
the new width =144
3x - 2y = 7
-2y = -3x + 7
y = 3/2x - 7/2....slope of this line is 3/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So the slope we need is -2/3 (see how I flipped the slope and changed the sign)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
(-3,-2).....x = -3 and y = -2
now we sub and find b, the y int
-2 = -2/3(-3) = b
-2 = 2 + b
-2 - 2 = b
-4 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2/3x - 4 <==
Answer:
AC = 24ft
Step by Step Explanation.
Given.
Rhombus.
BD = 24ft
AD = 15ft
Required
Length of AC
A rhombus has 4 equal sides; hence, the given shape will be regarded as a parallelogram and not rhombus (see attachment for diagram)
The opposite sides of a parallelogram are always of equal length
From the attached diagram (not drawn to scale), side AC opposites side BD
Given that BD = 24ft, then
AC = BD = 24ft.
Hence, AC = 24ft
