Answer:

y = 5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient is also known as slope . The gradient of a line is represented by the equation

Slope (m) = y - y1/ x - x1

Where m = 5 , x1= 1 and y1 = 3

Imputing the values into the equation

m = y - y1/ x - x1

5 = y - 3 /x - 1

Cross multiply, we have

y -3 = 5(x - 1)

Expand

y-3 = 5x - 5

Add 3 to both sides

y-3+3 = 5x - 5 +3

y = 5x - 2

PLEASE HELP ASAP!

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

$(x-4)^2+(y+7)^2=43$

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is given by:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.

We are given that the center is (4, -7) and that the radius is √(43).

So, h = 4, k = -7, and r = √(43). Substitute:

$(x-(4))^2+(y-(-7))^2=(\sqrt{43})^2$

Simplify. Hence, our equation is:

$(x-4)^2+(y+7)^2=43$

If csc θ=8/7, which equation represents cotθ

TEA [102]

Sin θ = opposite leg/hypotenuse
csc θ = hypotenuse /opposite leg =8/7

cot θ = adjacent leg/opposite leg

hypotenuse =8
opposite leg =7
We need to find adjacent leg.

(Opposite leg)² +(adjacent leg)² = hypotenuse²
7² + (adjacent leg)² =8²
(adjacent leg)² = 64 - 49
(adjacent leg)² = 15

adjacent leg=+/-√15
WE need only positive root,
so adjacent leg =√15

cot θ = √15/7 or 0.5533
