On a map of the city, 8th Street is a line segment from point (1,4) to point (6,9). J Street is a line segment that starts at (4

,–14) and stops at (–5,4). If the city council extends 8th Street in a straight line, where will it intersect J Street?

The intersection of 8th street and J street can be determined by setting up an equation for each line segment given the points mentioned above. Note that the equation of a line can be obtained from two points such that:

y - y1 = m(x-x1), where m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

For instance, the equation for 8th street is given by: y - 4 = [(9-4)/(6-1)]*(x-1). On the other hand, the equation for J street is given by: y + 14 = [(4+14)/(-5-4)]*(x-4). Simplifying the 2 equations we get: Eqn. (1) y = x + 3 and Eqn. (2) y = -2x - 6

Solving the 2 equations simultaneously, we obtain x = -3, y = 0. Thus, if the city council extends 8th street in a straight line, it will intersect J street at (-3,0).

The first step you should do is subtract 32 from both sides so your answer will turn out like this -

F = (9/5) C + 32
- 
F - 32 = (9/5)

Then we will multiply both sides by 5. 

5 ( F - 32 ) = 9 C

Divide both sides by 9 to isolate C.

(5/9)  ( F - 32 ) = C

So the answer is :

C = (5/9) ( F - 32 )

Hope this helps :)

If h(x)= 6x - 17, find h(8). *
Lena [83]

The value of h(8) in h(x)= 6x - 17 is 31

<h3></h3>

What are functions:

Functions relate input and output. Therefore, a function takes elements from a set (the domain) and relates them to elements in a set (range).

h(x)= 6x - 17

Let's find h(8)

h(8) = 6(8) - 17

h(8) = 48 - 17

h(8) = 31
