y=mx+b is the equation of a line;
m=slope , b= y-intercept
You can find the slope with this following equation: (y(2)-y(1))/(x(2)-x(1))
In this case the points are (0,4) and (-2,-3). The first set being (0,4) and the second (-2,-3). This means (0,4) can be expressed as (x(1),y(1)) and (-2,-3) expressed as (x(2),y(2)). Plugging these numbers into the slope equation gives us: (-3-4)/(-2-0) = -7/-2 = 7/2.
m= 7/2 ; so we have : y= (7/2)x+b
We are give a set of points which it passes through, we can simply plug them in:
4 = (7/2)(0)+b (0 is the x and 4 is the y)
We get 4 = 0 +b .... 4=b
our final equation is : y=(7/2)x+4
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Equation A</u>
16x - 7 = 11x - 32
(16x - 7) - 11x = (11x - 32) -11x
5x - 7 = -32
(5x - 7) + 7 = (-32) + 7
5x = -25
(5x)/5 = (-25)/5
x = -5
<u>Equation B</u>
-4x - 10 = 2x + 20
(-4x - 10) - 2x = (2x + 20) - 2x
-6x - 10 = 20
(-6x - 10) + 10 = (20) + 10
-6x = 30
(-6x)/-6 = (30)/-6
x = -5
Both Equation A and Equation B have a solution of -5.
They aren't necessarily equal because, for example, 3/2 = 1 remainder 1 and 5/4 = 1 remainder 1 aren't equal because it takes 2 x 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 while 4 x 1 = 4 + 1 = 5. They are the same quotient and remainer, except they aren't used to check if it multiplys back to the same divended.
ANSWER
The slant height is 40cm.
EXPLANATION
The lateral area of a cone is given by:

where r=10cm is the radius of the circle and l is the slant height.
It was also given that, the lateral area is 400π cm²
We substitute the values to get,

We now divide both sides by 10π.
This implies that,


Hence the slant height is 40cm.
