Answer:

The aprox, numbers:

4.1633   and    8.3266

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 2b

a² - b² = 52

then:

(2b)² - b² = 52

4b² - b² = 52

3b² = 52

b² = 52/3

b² = 17.333

√b² = √17.333

b = 4.1633        aprox.

a = 2b

a = 2*4.1633

a = 8.3266

Check:

8.3266² - 4.1633² = 52

69.333 - 17.333 = 52

Find an equation of the line passing through the given points (1,-3) and (3,3)
chubhunter [2.5K]

ANSWER: y= 3x - 6

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

(1,-3) and (3,3)

X1=1           X2=3

Y1= - 3       Y2=3

1) Find the slope of the line.

To find the slope of the line passing through these two points we need to use the slope  formula:

m = \frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}

m= \frac{3-(-3)}{3-1}   m=\frac{6}{2} = 3

2)Use the slope to find the y-intercept.

Now that we know the slope of the line is 3 we can plug the slope into the equation and  we get:

y= 3x+b

Next choose one of the two point to plug in for the values of x and y. It does not matter  which one of the two points you choose because you should get the same answer in either  case. I generally just choose the first point listed so I don’t have to worry about which  one I should choose.

y= 3x+b       point (1,-3)

-3= 3(1) + b

-3-3=b

-6=b

3)Write the answer.

Using the slope of 3 and the y-intercept of -6 the answer is:

y = 3x - 6

Help with algebra pls help
EastWind [94]

Answer:

  a. 1.48 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the larger value of t such that h(t) = 10.

  -16t^2 +25t +8 = 10

  16t^2 -25t +2 = 0 . . . . subtract the left side to get standard form

Using the quadratic formula, we find the values of t to be ...

  t = (-(-25) ± √((-25)^2 -4(16)(2)))/(2(16)) = (25±√497)/32

  t ≈ 0.08 or 1.48

The ball goes in the hoop about 1.48 seconds after it is thrown.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The quadratic formula tells us the solution to ...

  ax² +bx +c = 0

is given by ...

  x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Here, we have a=16, b=-25, c=2. Of course, our variable is t, not x, but the relation is the same.
