Answer:

y = -1/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a linear function, simply switch the x and y positions. Solve for y.

y = -2x - 8

x = -2y - 8

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

x + 8 = -2y

(x + 8)/-2 = (-2y)/-2

-1/2x - 4 = y

y = -1/2x - 4

A cone and a sphere both have a radius of 1. If you fill the cone with liquid, and pour it into the sphere, it fits exactly. Wha

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for the volume of the sphere, then solve for the height of the cone using the volume of the sphere (which is said to be equal to the volume of the cone) and the radius given.

Volume formula of Sphere

V = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^2$

Substitute 1 in for r

$\frac{4}{3} \pi (1)^2 = \frac{4}{3} \pi = 4.189$ = Volume

Finding the Height of a Cone

Volume formula for Cone: $V = \pi r^2\frac{h}{3}$

Solve for h

Multiply both sides by 3, then divide by pi and r^2.

$h = \frac{3V}{\pi r^2}$

Plug in the volume and the radius.

$h = \frac{3(4.189)}{\pi (1)^2}$

Simplify

$h = \frac{12.567}{\pi }$

h ≈ 4

4 is approximately the height.

All help is appreciated. Find m

Annette [7]

Answer:

B.) 73°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find m<A, first you must find it's supplementary angle. In order to do this, you must determine the missing interior angle. We'll call the missing angle x

A pentagon has 540°. Add up the known angles.

96°+118°+115°+104°+x = 540°

433°+x = 540°

x = 107°

Now that we know the value of x, we can find the m<A. Supplementary angles are two angles that add up to 180°, which is a flat line. We can see in the diagram that m<a + 107° is a flat line, meaning m<a + 107° = 180°

Solve accordingly.

m<a + 107° = 180°

m<a = 73°

The graph below shows the height through which an elevator travels, y, in x seconds: A graph is shown with x axis title as Time

Blababa [14]

Answer:

C. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a graph representing the height of the elevator with respect to time.

Since, we know that,

X-axis represents the 'time' in seconds and y-axis represents the 'height of the elevator' in feet.

As, the coordinate points on the graph are given by,

(1,10), (2,20), (3,30) and (4,40).

So, the rate of change can be found out by solving, $\frac{20-10}{2-1}=10$ .

Hence, the rate of change of the relationship is 10.
