Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient of a line is the same as slope of the line. Slope is defined as the ratio of the rate of change in the y(vertical) axis to the rate of change in the x(horizontal) axis.

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Slope is denoted by m. Therefore,

For line A,

y1 = - 1

y2 = 3

x1 = 2

x2 = 3

Slope, m = (3 - - 1)/((3 - 2) = 4/1 = 4

For line B,

y1 = 5

y2 = 1

x1 = - 2

x2 = 0

Slope, m = (1 - 5)/((0 - - 2) = - 4/2 = - 2

Find the angle between the given vectors to the nearest tenth of a degree.

pochemuha

$\bf \textit{angle between two vectors }\\ \quad \\
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{u \cdot v}{||u||\ ||v||} \implies \cfrac{\text{dot product}}{\text{product of magnitudes}}\\ \quad \\\\
\theta = cos^{-1}\left(\cfrac{u \cdot v}{||u||\ ||v||}\right)\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\theta=cos^{-1}\left[ \cfrac{\ \textless \ 8,4\ \textgreater \ \quad \cdot \quad \ \textless \ 9,-9\ \textgreater \ }{(\sqrt{8^2+4^2})(\sqrt{9^2+(-9)^2})} \right]$

$\bf \theta=cos^{-1}\left[ \cfrac{(8\cdot 9)+(4\cdot -9)}{(\sqrt{64+16})(\sqrt{81+81})} \right]\implies \theta=cos^{-1}\left[ \cfrac{36}{(\sqrt{80})(\sqrt{162})} \right]
\\\\\\
\theta=cos^{-1}\left[ \cfrac{36}{(\sqrt{80})(\sqrt{162})} \right]\implies 
\theta=cos^{-1}\left[ \cfrac{36}{\sqrt{12960}}\right]
\\\\\\
\theta=cos^{-1}\left[ \cfrac{36}{36\sqrt{10}}\right]\implies \theta\approx 71.565^o$

The formula for the volume of a pyramid is uppercase V = one-third uppercase B h Which of the following equations is equivalent

quester [9]

Answer:

uppercase B = StartFraction 3 uppercase V Over h

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume (V) of a pyramid is:

V = 1/3*B*h

where B is the are of the base and h is the height. We can isolate B, as follows:

multiply by 3 at both sides

V*3 = 1/3*B*h*3

divide by h at both sides

V*3/h = B*h/h

V*3/h = B
