Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of rise to run is ...
rise/run = 6 ft/24 ft = 1/4
Expressed as a percentage, this is ...
1/4 × 100% = 25%
_____
<em>Comment on this grade</em>
Interstate highways are limited to a 7% grade. Most local jurisdictions limit the grade of a road to somewhere between 12% and 15%.
Answer:
a) y = .70x + 20
-To find this, use the rate as x since it will change based on the number of miles. Since 20 is a flat fee, it can be added at the end as a constant.
b) This graph forms a straight line.
-This is because the answer in a is a linear equation.
c) The slope is .70 and the y-intercept is 20.
-For this one, the y-intercept is always the constant at the end of the equation and the slope is the coefficient of x.
Answer:
the directrix and focus the axis of symmetry (goes through the focus, at right angles to the directrix) the vertex (where the parabola makes its sharpest turn) is halfway between the focus and directrix.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the top right corner is -7x since we multiply the x and -7
In the bottom row, we'll have 5x for the first box and -35 for the second box. Each box is the result of multiplying the outer values.
In the top left corner, the x^2 is from multiplying the two copies of x.
Answer:
y - 2 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
find slope first:
(2-2)/(5+1) = 0/6 or 0
now use 'y=mx+b' to find the y-intercept (the 'b'):
2 = 0(5) + b
2 = b
so, in slope-intercept form, the equation is:
y = 2
but, in standard form, the equation is:
y - 2 = 0
