Answer: The result is $m = -\frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

-Next, use the two points for the equation:

$m = \frac{-9-6}{3+9}$

-Solve the equation:

$m = \frac{-9-6}{3+9}$

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

So, therefore, the slope is $-\frac{5}{4}$ .

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

So the slope of the line that goes through the points and is m=3/2

Now flip the fraction and change the sign to get the answer -2/3

<span>The problem says that the distance D to the horizon is directly proportional to the square root of the elevation E of the observer, so:

The person who is 36 feet above the water ⇒ √36=6

A person 49 feet above the water ⇒ √49=7

So, by proportions, you have:

(7/6)x7.4= 8.63 miles

Therefore, the answer is: </span><span>a person 49 feet above the water can see 8.63 miles</span><span> </span>

You have D dollars to buy fence to enclose a rectangular plot of land (see figure at right). The fence for the top and bottom co

alex41 [277]

The perimeter of the rectangular plot of land is given by the expression below

$P=2x+2y$

On the other hand, since the available money to buy fence is D dollars,

$\begin{gathered} D=4(2x)+3(2y) \\ \Rightarrow D=8x+6y \\ D\rightarrow\text{ constant} \end{gathered}$

Furthermore, the area of the enclosed land is given by

$A=xy$

Solving the second equation for x,

$\begin{gathered} D=8x+6y \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6y}{8} \end{gathered}$

Substituting into the equation for the area,

$\begin{gathered} A=(\frac{D-6y}{8})y \\ \Rightarrow A=\frac{D}{8}y-\frac{3}{4}y^2 \end{gathered}$

To find the maximum possible area, solve A'(y)=0, as shown below

$\begin{gathered} A^{\prime}(y)=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{D}{8}-\frac{3}{2}y=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{3}{2}y=\frac{D}{8} \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{D}{12} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the corresponding value of x is

$\begin{gathered} y=\frac{D}{12} \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6(\frac{D}{12})}{8}=\frac{D-\frac{D}{2}}{8}=\frac{D}{16} \end{gathered}$ <h2>Thus, the dimensions of the fence that maximize the area are x=D/16 and y=D/12.</h2><h2>As for the used money,</h2> $\begin{gathered} top,bottom:\frac{8D}{16}=\frac{D}{2} \\ Sides:\frac{6D}{12}=\frac{D}{2} \end{gathered}$ <h2>Half the money was used for the top and the bottom, while the other half was used for the sides.</h2>
