A line intersects the points (3,-4) and (1,2) what is the slope intercept equation for this line

Evgesh-ka [11]3 years ago

Answer:

y = - 3x + 5

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 )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 2)

m = \frac{2+4}{1-3} = \frac{6}{-2} = - 3, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (1, 2), then

2 = - 3 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 3 = 5

y = - 3x + 5 ← equation of line

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below? Check all that apply. 4x2 - 12x + 9 = 5​
Anika [276]

Step-by-step explanation:

4x² - 12x + 9 = 5 → 4x² - 12x + 4 = 0 → x² - 3x + 1 = 0

∆ = b² - 4ac → ∆ = (-3)² -4(1)(1) = 9 - 4 = 5

x = (-(-3) ± √5)/2(1) = (3 ± √5)/2

x² - 3x + 1 = 0 → (x - 3/2)² - 9/4 + 1 = 0 → (x - 3/2)² = 5/4 → x - 3/2 = ±√5 / 2 → x = ½( 3 ± √5)

Find the height of a cylinder whose diameter is 42 cm and the area of its curved
Wittaler [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  90 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The lateral area of a cylinder is given by the formula ...

  LA = πdh

Filling in the given information, we can solve for h:

  11,880 cm^2 = π(42 cm)h

  h = 1180 cm^2/(42π cm) ≈ 90.0 cm

The height of the cylinder is about 90 cm.
