Answer:

The slope is 4, and the y-intercept is Negative five-halves

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$8x-2y=5$

This is the equation of the line in standard form

Convert the equation in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Isolate the variable y

Subtract 8x both sides

$-2y=-8x+5$

Divide by -2 both sides

$y=4x-\frac{5}{2}$

therefore

$m=4\\b=-\frac{5}{2}$

Diagram shows a section of a bridge between the points A and K. The length of line segment is 640 meters. ∆ABC, ∆CDF, and ∆FJK a

Marta_Voda [28]

AK = 640
Δ ABC and ΔFJK are similar. They are small triangles.
ΔCDF is the big triangle.

640 / 2 = 320 m= CF
AC & FK= 320/2 = 160 m each

2AC = CF = 2FK
2(160) = 320 = 2(160)

BG = 20 m

20/160 = x / 320
20*320 = 160x
6400 = 160x
6400/160 = x
40 = x

Area of CDF = (40 m * 320 m)/2 = 12,800 / 2= 6,400 m²

The length of a rectangle is 4 less than twice the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 130, find the length of the recta

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Let L be the length of the rectangle and w be the width of the rectangle.

"The lenght of a rectangle is one less than twice the width" means L=2W-1

Using perimeter formula of a rectangle which is P=2(L+W) you have:

P=2(L+W)

130=2(2W-1+W)

Solve equation above to find W

130=2(3W-1)

130=6W-2

130+2=6W

132=6W

W=22

From here you find L=2W-1=2x22-1=43

Only thing left is to find area A=LxW

Find the distance BF for the points B(1,-1) and F(-3,5)

Nadusha1986 [10]

Use the distance formula:
 $\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

Plug in the given coordinates:
 $\sqrt{(-3-1)^2 + (5-(-1))^2}$

Simplify:
 $\sqrt{(-3-1)^2 + (5+1))^2}$

$\sqrt{-4^2+ 6^2}$

$\sqrt{16+36}$

$\sqrt{52}$
You can leave it as: $\sqrt{52}$ or in decimal form as: 7.2
