Answer:

The equation is y = 4x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 4x + b

Substitute the x and y value into the equation

7 = 4(1)+b

7 = 4+b

Subtract 4

7-4 =b

3=b

The equation is y = 4x+3

Answer:

y = 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 4, thus

y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (1, 7) into the partial equation

7 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 7 - 4 = 3

y = 4x + 3 ← equation of line

If the graph of y = lxl is translated so that the point (1, 1) is moved to (1.4), what is the equation of the new graph?

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

y = |x| + 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The movement of the y value from 1 to 4 is a translation of 3 units upwards.

The graph is y = |x| + 3.

Saira is using the formula for the area of a circle to determine the value of LaTeX: \piπ. She is using the expression LaTeX: Ar

lord [1]

Given:

Area of a circle, A=50.265 sq. units.

Radius of circle, r = 4 units.

To find:

The value of π to the nearest thousandth.

Solution:

Formula for area of a circle is

$A=\pi r^2$

$\dfrac{A}{r^2}=\pi$

$Ar^{-2}=\pi$

Now, using $Ar^{-2}$ expression, we can find the value of π.

$\pi=50.265904(4)^{-2}$

$\pi=\dfrac{50.265904}{4^2}$

$\pi=\dfrac{50.265904}{16}$

$\pi=3.141619$

Approximate the value to the nearest thousandth (three digits after decimal).

$\pi\approx 3.142$

Therefore, the approximated value of π is 3.142.

A tree cast a shadow that is 20 feet long. Frank is 6 feet tall, and while standing next to the tree he cast a shadow that is 4

baherus [9]

A. So we know that a 6 foot figure casts a shadow 4 feet long. 4 foot shadow x 5 = a 20 foot shadow. So this means we take 6 x 5 = 30, and the tree is 30 feet tall.
B. 30 - 6 = 24 feet taller than Frank
