Dimas [21]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

-2/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) use the slope equation (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

2.) substitute the points into the equation (2-4)/(2--1)

3.) solve the equation (2-4= -2) / (2--1=3)

4.) the slope is -2/3

After a cleanup, algae covers 2 miles of a coastline. The length of the coastline covered after the cleanup is $\frac{1}{3}$
emmasim [6.3K]

The miles previously covered by algae is 6 miles

let m represent the miles of the coastline covered by algae before the clean-up  

fraction of miles covered after the clean-up = \frac{1}{3} x m = \frac{1}{3}m

miles covered after the clean-up = 2 miles

\frac{1}{3}m = 2 miles

to determine the value of m, make m the subject of the formula.

To do this, take the following step :

multiply both sides of the equation by 2

m = 2 miles x 3

m = 6 miles

HELP!!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!! 10 PTS!!!

Answer:

x= 55 degrees

w = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle PQR contains two triangles, QPS and PSR.

Looking at triangle QPS, it is an isosceles triangle. This is shown by the two short lines that cuts line QP and line QS.

In an isosceles triangle, two sides and two angles are equal. The two equal angles are the base angles.

Therefore,

angle P and angle S are equal. Also

Line QP and line PS are equal. This means

6w - 10 = w

6w-w = 10

5w = 10

w = 10/2 = 5

Angle Q + 100 degrees = 180 ( sum of angles on a straight line)

Angle Q = 180 - 100 = 80 degrees

Angle Q = Angle S(base angles of an isosceles triangle)

Angle PSR = 180 - 80 = 100 degrees( sum of angles on a straight line is 180)

Angle PSR + x + 25 = 180

x = 180 - 25 - 100 = 55 degrees

The Mississippi River flows at 16,790 cubic meters per second.
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Time taken is 1.45\times 10^8\textrm{ s}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Volume of Gulf of Mexico, V=2434000000000000=2.434\times 10^{12}\textrm{ }m^3

Flow rate of the Mississippi River, f=16790=1.679\times 10^4\textrm{ }m^{3}/s

Now, time taken to fill the volume of Gulf of Mexico is given as:

Time=\frac{\textrm{Total volume}}{\textrm{Flow rate}}\\\\Time=\frac{2.434\times 10^{12}}{1.679\times 10^{4}}=1.45\times 10^{8}\textrm{ s}.

Therefore, the time by the Mississippi River to fill the volume of the Gulf of Mexico is 1.45\times 10^8\textrm{ s}.

A prism and two nets are shown below:
vladimir1956 [14]
A) Net A would be the correct net for the prism.

B) AB = 3in
BC = 5in
CD = 8.6in

C) area of one triangle : 4*3/2 = 6
But there's 2 triangles so 6*2 = 12cm2
Area of the middle square : 8.6*4 = 34.4cm2
Area of bottom square : 8.6*5 = 43cm2
Area of top rectangle : 8.6*3 = 25.8cm2

Finally add all of these areas together and you will get the surface area : 115.2cm
