Graph the set of points. which model is most appropriate for the set? (-6, -1)(-3, 2)(-1,4)(2,7)

lianna [129]

For this case, the first thing to do is to graph the following ordered pairs:
(-6, -1)
(-3, 2)
(-1,4)
(2,7)
We observe that the graph is a linear function with the following equation:
y = x + 5
Note: see attached image.
Answer:
The function that best represents the ordered pairs is:
y = x + 5

From the start of a trail to the bird lookout point is 3 7/8 mile. From the bird lookout point to the end of the trail is anothe

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Distance of the trail from the start to the end is $6\frac{17}{24}$ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from the start of a trail to the bird lookout point= $3\frac{7}{8}$ miles

Distance from the bird lookout point to the end of the trail = $2\frac{5}{6}$ miles

We want to find the difference of the trail from the start to the end, that is, how far is the starting point from the end point.

The distance between the start and end points

$=3\frac{7}{8}+2\frac{5}{6}\\=\frac{31}{8} +\frac{17}{6}$

$=\frac{161}{24} =6\frac{17}{24}$ miles

The height of a triangle is 8ft greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 136.5 square ft. Find the length of the base

mixer [17]

Answer:

the base is 9/2 ft and the height is 9/2 + 8, or 25/8, ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the formula for the area of a triangle is A = (1/2)(base)(height). Let's abbreviate that to A = (1/2)(b)(h). We are told that h = b + 8.

Then A = 136.5 = (1/2)(b)(b + 8), or

(after multiplying both sides by 2)

A = 273 = b^2 + 8b

which, when put into standard quadratic form, becomes:

b^2 + 8b - 273 = 0

The coefficients of this quadratic are a = 1, b = 8 and c = -273.

Thus, the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 64 - 4(1)(-273) = 1156 = 17^2.

The roots are then

-8 ± √1156 -8 ± 17

x = -------------------- = ------------ = 9/2 and -25/2

2 2

Only the root 9/2 makes sense here, because measurements of length are positive.

Thus, the base is 9/2 ft and the height is 9/2 + 8, or 25/8, ft.

If I have a triangle with a leg of 4 and a leg of 3 what is the length of the hypotenuse

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for hypotenuse we use the Pythagorean theorem:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

In this theorem:

c= hypotenuse

a = leg

b = leg

Substitute into theorem:

$4^2+3^2=c^2$

$16+9=c^2$

$25=c^2$

(square root both sides)

$5=c$

Therefore the hypotenuse has a length of 5.

Please say thanks if correct :)
