Which is an equation of the line that passes through (–1, –5) and (–3, –7)?

Answer:

y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through (-1,-5) and (-3,-7)

The slope of a line is given by; change in y ÷ change in x

i.e slope = \frac{-7 - -5}{-3 - -1} = \frac{-2}{-2} = 1

Taking another point (x,y) on the line.

Slope will be; \frac{y - -5}{x - -1} = 1

Cross multiplying gives; y + 5 = x + 1

Simplifying this equation gives us the equation of our line which is;

y = x - 4

You have 132 m of fencing with which to make 2 side by side rectangular enclosures against an existing wall. If the enclosures a
Deffense [45]
The two enclosures will need three equal fences coming out from the wall and meeting another fence running parallel to the wall. If the fences coming out from the wall are x metres long the parallel fence will be (132 - 3x) metres long.
The area A = x(132 - 3x) = 132x - 3x^2
The derivative of A = zero when 132 - 6x = 0 which means the maximum area is when x = 22m
The maximum area = 22 x (132 - 3 x 22) = 1452 m^2

If you don’t know how to find derivatives then you could sketch the graph of y = x(132 - 3x).
This is an inverted parabola (hill) with x intercepts at 0 and 132/3 = 44.
The maximum point (top of the hill) is halfway between 0 and 44 I.e. 22m

Try any other value for x and the area will be smaller.

A flea weighs 8 decigrams, and an ant weighs 3 milligrams. How much more does a flea weigh than an ant?
Tasya [4]
It should be 7.97 decigrams, since you want to convert 3 milligrams to decigrams (0.03), it is asking "How much more" which means you subtract.  8 subtracted from 0.03 is 7.97.

Hope this helps :)

A garden is 30 feet long. a row of beans is planted every 15 inches. how many rows of beans are in the garden? a. 20 rows b. 24
Anettt [7]

Answer:

b) 24 rows

Step-by-step explanation:

12 inches = 1 foot

Since we are doing 30 feet, multiply 12 by 30

12 · 30 = 360 inches

Then, divide the total length (360 inches) by the spacing size (15 inches)

360 ÷ 15 = 24 rows total
