What is the slope of the line described by the equation below?

1 answer:

4 0

Y = -6x + 3
In y = mx + b form, the slope will be in ur m position...

y = mx + b
y = -6x + 3

so ur slope (the number in the m position) is -6

Find the distance between the points (-6,-2), (2,7)

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

$d=12.0416$

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Formula: $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Simply plug in your 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance <em>d</em>:

$d=\sqrt{(2-(-6))^2+(7-(-2))^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(2+6)^2+(7+2)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(8)^2+(9)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{64+81}$

$d=\sqrt{145}$

$d=12.0416$

The length of a rectangle is 6 in longer than its width.if the perimeter of the rectangle is 68in find the length and width ?

wel

The length and the width of the rectangle are 20 and 14 inches respectively

<h3>How to find the length and width?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Length = 6 + Width

Perimeter = 68 inches

The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as:

Perimeter = 2 * (Length + Width)

So, we have:

2 * (Length + Width) = 68

Divide both sides by 2

Length + Width = 34

Substitute Length = 6 + Width in Length + Width = 34

6 + Width + Width = 34

Evaluate the like terms

2 * Width = 28

Divide both sides by 2

Width = 14

Substitute Width = 14 in Length = 6 + Width

Length = 6 + 14

Evaluate

Length = 20

Hence, the length and the width of the rectangle are 20 and 14 inches respectively

How do I find X in this problem

pogonyaev

You know that BC is congruent to x so you need to solve for x using the ratio:
$\frac{12}{24}=\frac{x}{BC}$

So then we need to find BC.

We know:
$A=\frac{base \times height}{2}$
$28=\frac{BC \times 7}{2}$
Therefore BC =8

Then:
$\frac{12}{24}=\frac{x}{8}$
$x=8 \times \frac{12}{24} = 4$

Use algebraic methods to prove that the given function has an x-intercept that is equal to its y-intercept. In your final answer

Llana [10]

Given the function, y = x/( x^2 – 1)

Add x and subtract x from (x^2 – 1) to make it a complete square

y = x/(x^2 + x – x – 1)

y = x/[x(x + 1) – 1(x + 1)]

y = x/[(x – 1)(x + 1)]

In order to find the y -intercept, we set x = 0

When x = 0

y = 0/[(0 – 1)(0 + 1)]

y = 0.

Therefore, the y-intercept is zero.

In order to find the x -intercept, we set y = 0

When y = 0

0 = x/[(x – 1)(x + 1)]

The only way the product of a division will be zero is if the numerator is zero

So, if x/[(x – 1)(x + 1)] = 0

x = 0

Therefore, the x-intercept is also zero.

Since both x- intercept and y- intercept equal zero,

Then, the given function has an x-intercept that is equal to its y-intercept
