Find some graphing paper and graph away..
i.e. Sub in x = 0 and find what y = ?
y = 1/2(0) + 3
y = 3
So we know the coordinate (0,3)
When x = 4 , y = ?
y = 1/2(4) + 3
y = 4/2 + 3
y = 2 + 3
y = 5
So we know another coordinate (4, 5)
When x = -4, y = ?
y = 1/2(-4) + 3
y = -4/2 + 3
y = -2 + 3
y = 1
So we know another coordinate (-4, 1)
Putting it all together, the coordinates: (-4, 1) , (0, 3) and (4, 5) should be plenty sufficient to graph and then draw a line of best fit connecting them.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
The function of a straight line is given by y=mx+c
Where m - gradient/slope
C- y intercept
The denominator must be the same, so just think of the LEAST COMMON MULTIPLE, The LCM here is 8, because you can multiply 4 by 2 to get 8.
so when you multiply, you multiply both on the top and on the bottom, so this would be:
3 x 2 / 4 x 2 = 6 / 8
Now you can add or subtract: 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8
Use Pythagorean Theorem
c2 = a2 + b2
152 = a2 + 12
a2 = 152 - 122
=225 - 144 = 81
a = 9 ft
Distance from base of antenna = 9ft
