Answer:
y - 4 = (9/4)(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we're given the slope (9/4) of a line and one point (4, 4) on the line. The easiest form of the equation of a straight line to use here is the point-slope form:
y - k = m(x - h).
Here h = 4 and k = 4; the slope is m = 9/4.
Thus, the desired equation is
y - 4 = (9/4)(x - 4)
Answer:
p = -4, q = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2x +4 ... (1) perpendicular bisector of AB, slope = -2
slope of AB = 1/2
Line AB pass (8,3): (y-3) / (x-8) = 1/2
AB equation: y-3 = 1/2(x-8) y = 1/2x - 1 ... (2)
(2)-(1): 5/2 x = 5 x = 2
y = 0 (2,0) intercept of bisector and AB, it is midpoint of A (8,3) and (p,q)
(8+p)/2 = 2
<u>p = -4</u>
(3+q)/2 = 0
<u>q = -3</u>
Write and solve the appropriate exponential equation:
228 = 16(r)^4, where r is the change per hour in the number of bacteria:
228
------ = r^4 = 14.25.
16
Taking the fourth root of both sides, we get: r = 1.94 (answer)
