Find the slope, m = (change in y) / (change in x)

                     0-(-2)
Here, m = ------------- = 1/4
                     8 - 0
y-k = m(x-h) becomes         y+2 = (1/4)(x), or y = (1/4)x - 2

Then the desired equation is   y = (1/4)x - 2 (slope-intercept form)

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 1/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we must first find the slope. We can do that by using the slope formula. For this, we will use the points given of (8, 0) and (0, -2)

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (0 - -2)/(8 - 0)

m = 2/8

m = 1/4

Now that we have the slope, we can use that and either point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - -2 = 1/4(x - 0)

y + 2 = 1/4x

y = 1/4x - 2

A circle has a diameter of 4 meters. What is its perimeter (to the nearest hundredth)? What is its area (to the nearest hundredt
Ilya [14]

Answer:

<h2>C ≈ 12.56 m, A ≈ 12.56 m²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a perimeter (circumference) of a circle:

C=d\pi

<em>d</em> - diameter

The formula of an area of a circle:

A=\pi r^2

<em>r</em> - radius

We have <em>d = 2r = 4m → r = 2m.</em>

<em>Substitute:</em>

<em>Use π ≈ 3.14</em>

C=4\pi\ m\approx(4)(3.14)=12.56\ m

A=\pi(2^2)=4\pi\ m^2\approx(4)(3.14)=12.56\ m^2

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. -8·t² + 18·t + 6 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of the height toy cannon launched on top of a platform is given as follows;

h(t) = -8·t² + 18·t + 6...(1)

Where "h" represents the height in meters, at time "t" seconds after the ball is launched

When the height is 10 meters, we can write as follows;

The height of the ball, h(t) = 10

Therefore, by substituting the value of h(t) in equation (1), h(t) = -8·t² + 18·t + 6, when h(t) = 10 we get;

-8·t² + 18·t + 6 = 10.
