Equation of the existing water pipe's line
a) slope, m = rise / run = Δy / Δx = 3/2
b) y-intercept, b = 3
equation: y = mx + b = (3/2)x + 3
Equation of the new water pipe's line
slope, m = - 1 / (slope of the perpendicular line) = - 1 / (3/2) = - 2/3
point (0,2)
=> y - 2 = (-2/3) (x - 0) => y = (-2/3)x + 2 <---- equation of the new pipe
28)
two parallel lines have the same slope =>
slope, m = rise / run = Δy / Δx = [4 - 0] / [11 - 8] = 4 / 3
point (4,5) => y - 5 = (4/3) (x - 4)
=> y = (4/3)x - 16/3 + 5 = (4/3)x - 1/3
y = (4/3)x - 1/3 <--- equation of the new bike path
Answer:
a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation for a straight line is y = mx+c, where m is the gradient/ slope, so m = -5. The first thing we need to do is find c, which we do by plugging in the x and y values that we already know: y = 7 and x = -2
7 = -5*(-2) + c
7 = 10 + c
c = 7-10 = -3
Now, we have the general equation of y = -5x -3 and we can use this to find a.
We'll treat a as x and y will be equal to 2:
2 = -5a -3
5 = -5a (Divide both sides by 5)
-a = 1 (now by -1)
a = -1
Answer:
Volume = 8 * 3.5 * 14.5 =
406 cubic feet
.65 pounds / cubic foot * 406 =
263.9 pounds

Answer:
36 and 6. 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Remember the formula for calculating volume is: Volume = Area by height. V = A X h.
For a triangle the area is calculated using the formula: Area = half of base by altitude. A = 0.5 X b X a.
So to calculate the volume of a triangular prism, the formula is: V = 0.5 X b X a X h.
