Answer:

y + 8 = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the points given to find the slope.  Divide the difference in y-values by the difference in x-values.

(-1) - (-7) = 6

5 - (-8) = 3

6/3 = 2

The slope is 2.

Now, pick one of the points to put in point-slope form.  It doesn't matter which.  You will get the right answer either way.  I will use (-1, -8).

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-8) = 2(x - (-1))

y + 8 = 2(x + 1)

y + 8 = 2x + 2

The temperature fell by 15 degrees Fahrenheit today.
katrin2010 [14]
<h3>Answer is   -15</h3>

We read this out as "negative 15" or you could write "negative fifteen".

The negative indicates the temperature went down. It doesn't necessarily mean that the final temperature is -15 degrees.

For example, if it starts being 50 degrees F, and drops by 15 degrees, then 50+(-15) = 50-15 = 35 degrees is the temperature after that drop. It might help to use a vertical number line.

Andrew is flying a kite held by 175 meters of string that makes an angle of elevation with the ground of 40. Emma is standing di
Alja [10]

Answer:

x=134.05m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Slant Height of Kite h_s=175

Angle \theta=40 \textdegree

Since Emma,The Kite and Andrew forms a right angle triangle

Generally the equation for distance between Andrew from Emma is mathematically given by

 x=h_scos\theta

 x=175cos40

 x=134.05m

What in trying to find is 95-3into4 3 for 4 times. 95-3x3x3x3=_____. What can i do for this answer. ‍☠️~_~-_- -_-||
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate 95 minus 3, four times

95 - 3⁴

95 - (3 * 3 * 3 * 3)

95 - (81)

95 - 81

= 14

Hence, 95 - (3 * 3 * 3 * 3) = 14

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!

Let us model this problem with a polynomial function.

Let x =  day number (1,2,3,4, ...)
Let y = number of creatures colled on day x.

Because we have 5 data points, we shall use a 4th order polynomial of the form
y = a₁x⁴ + a₂x³ + a₃x² + a₄x + a₅

Substitute x=1,2, ..., 5 into y(x) to obtain the matrix equation
|   1     1    1    1    1  |  | a₁ |      | 42 |
| 2⁴  2³  2²  2¹  2⁰  |  | a₂ |      | 26 |
| 3⁴  3³  3²  3¹  3⁰   |  | a₃ |  =  | 61 |
| 4⁴  4³  4²  4¹  4⁰   |  | a₄ |      | 65 |
| 5⁴  5³  5²  5¹  5⁰  |  | a₅ |      | 56 |

When this matrix equation is solved in the calculator, we obtain
a₁ =      4.1667
a₂ =  -55.3333
a₃ =  253.3333
a₄ =  -451.1667
a₅ =   291.0000

Test the solution.
y(1) = 42  
y(2) = 26
y(3) = 61
y(4) = 65
y(5) = 56

The average for 5 days is (42+26+61+65+56)/5 = 50.
If Kathy collected 53 creatures instead of 56 on day 5, the average becomes
(42+26+61+65+53)/5 = 49.4.

Now predict values for days 5,7,8.
y(6) = 152
y(7) = 571
y(8) = 1631
