Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s). A construction

crew is extending the length of the center line on a highway. The length of the line starts out as 6 meters long, which is represented on a coordinate plane as the point (0,6). The crew works for 20 minutes and the line is now 17 meters long, which is represented as the point (20,17). Complete the equation that represents the relationship between x, the number of minutes spent working, and y, the length of the line, in meters.

Answer:

y=\frac{11}{20}x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two points are given

x = number of minutes

y = length of the lin

(x_{1},y_{1} ) ⇒ (0, 6)

(x_{2},y_{2} ) ⇒ (20, 17)

We need to find the equation that represents the relationship between x, y.

Solution:

Using slope formula to find the slope of the equation of the line.

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Substitute (x_{1},y_{1} ) = (0, 6) and (x_{2},y_{2} ) = (20, 17) in above equation.

m=\frac{17-6}{20-0}\\m=\frac{11}{20}

So, slope of the line m = \frac{11}{20}

Using point slope formula.

(y-y_{1})=m(x-x_{1}) ------------(1)

Where, m = slope of the line

Substitute (x_{1},y_{1} ) ⇒ (0, 6) and m = \frac{11}{20} in equation 1.

(y-6)=\frac{11}{20} (x-0)

y-6=\frac{11}{20}x

Add 6 both side of the equation.

y-6+6=\frac{11}{20}x+6

y=\frac{11}{20}x+6

Therefore, the equation that represents the relationship between x and y is written as:

y=\frac{11}{20}x+6

A rectangular gasoline tank can hold 45.0 kg of gasoline when full. what is the depth of the tank if it is 0.450 m wide by 0.900
garri49 [273]
The answer is 0.154 m

Step 1. Calculate the volume of gasoline tank (V) using the known mass (m) and density of gasoline (D).
D = m/V
⇒   V = m/D
D = 719.7 kg/m³
m = 45.0 kg
V = 45.0 kg/719.7 kg/m³ = 0.0625 m³

Step 2. Calculate the depth of the tank (d) using the known volume (V) of gasoline and width (w) and length (l) of the tank:
V = d * w * l
0.0625 = d * 0.900 * 0.450
0.0625 = d * 0.405
d = 0.0625  / 0.405
d = 0.154 m

Three out of four student surveyed in a school said they will vote for nuncio for class president. Predict how many of the 340 s
elena55 [62]
3/4 is .75. translate that to percentages, and you get 75%. This means that it is likely that 75% of the 340 students in total will vote for Nuncio. 
write it out:
.75*340
solve:
255

about 255 students are likely to vote for Nuncio
