In order to solve this problem, it is helpful to draw a diagram (see image below). Since slope is “rise over run” you can make an equation of 4/x = .25 . Then by multiplying each side by x, you can get rid of the fraction. Next, you divide both sides by .25 . You will end up with x=16

function f(x) has a slope of 3/2 and a y-intercept of 6. explain how the graph of f(x) could be used to find the x-intercept
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

x - intercept = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the function f(x) has a slope of 3/2 and a y-intercept of 6.

From general line equation, the formula is; y = mx + c

Where m is the slope and c is the intercept.

Thus, the equation is;

f(x) = (3/2)x + 6

Now,to find the x-intercept on the graph, it will be at a point where f(x) = 0.

Thus let's put 0 for f(x) to find the x-intercept.

0 = (3/2)x + 6

(3/2)x = -6

x = -6 × 2/3

x = -4

Farmer Alex has 32 llamas each of whom needs 10000 square feet of grazing area. He wants to enclose a rectangular pen along a st
Elenna [48]
So hmm notice the picture below

the side of the river, needs no fencing, since the river is there
and thus the perimeter of the pen, is just w + w + l, or 2w+l

thus   \bf \textit{area of a rectangle}\\\\
A=lw\qquad A=10000\implies 10000=lw\implies \cfrac{10000}{w}=\boxed{l}
\\\\\\
\textit{perimeter of enclosed pen}\\\\
P=2w+l\implies P(w)=2w+\boxed{\cfrac{10000}{w}}

take the derivative of P(w), set it to zero, and check for any critical points, then run a first-derivative test for any minimum

Compare. Write <, >, or =. Write the strategy you used. 2/3 or 7/8
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

2/3<7/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the easiest and most simple way is to get a common denominator.The lcm of 3 and 8 is 24.so 2*8=16.So 2/3=16/24.Also 7*3 = 21.So 21/24=2/3.so 2/3<7/8.

What additional information is needed to prove that the triangles are congruent using the AAS congruence theorem? LO ≅ LM OA ≅ M
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

∠LOA≅∠LMA

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two options are incorrect because you need one more set of congruent ANGLES, not SIDES. The last option would prove congruency, but through ASA, not AAS. So it would be the third option.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

15/16

Step-by-step explanation:

2 7/16 = 39/16

1 3/8 = 12/8 = 24/16

(39-24)/16 = 15/16
