Answer:

m = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Formula: m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Simply plug in our coordinates to find <em>m</em>:

m = (0 - 2)/(5 + 1)

m = -2/6

m = -1/3

After the booster club sold 40 hotdogs at a football game, it had $90 in profit. After the next game, it had sold a total of 80
Ainat [17]
We can model the equation:y = m x + b, where y is the total profit and x is the number of hotdogs sold.The system of equations is:
90 = 40 m + b210 = 80 m + b---------------------b = 90 - 40 m210 = 80 m + 90 - 40 m210 - 90 = 40 m120 = 40 mm = 120 : 40m = 3b = 90 - 40*3b = 90 - 120b = - 30Answer: The equation is y = 3 x - 30

ΔAOB is a right angled triangle. Therefore the Pythagorean Theorem applies in this situation.
θ is the angle from a standard position of the line OA

The length of the y component is √(1-0)2 +(-3-(-3))2] =√(12+ 02) = 1 A(-3,1) to B(-3,0) which is opposite

Then the length of the x-component is √[(-3-0)2 +(0-0)2] = √(9+0)= 3 B(-3,0) to O(0,0) which is adjacent

The length of vector OA is √[(-3-0)2 + (1-0)2] = √(9+1) = √(10) A(-3,1) to O(0,0) which is the hypotenuse of the triangle

θ = 180 - α
sinθ = sin(180-α) = opposite/hypotenuse = 1/√10
cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse = -3/√10
tanθ = opposite/adjacent = 1/-3 = -1/3

α= arcsin(1/√10) ≈ 18
θ =180 -18 ≈162

The ratio of the mass of an ant to the mass it can carry 1:50
slavikrds [6]

The ratio 1:50 means that an ant can carry an object heavy 50 times its mass.

So, if the mass of the ant is 0.4 grams, it can carry at most 50 times that mass, i.e. 50x0.4 = 20 grams

In order to answer the second question, you need to consider your mass and multiply it by 50: if you were as strong as an ant, you could lift that weight!

Westkost [7]

Answer:

AB = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is horizontal then its length is the difference of the x- coordinates, that is

AB = | 8 - 4 | = 4 , or

AB = | 4 - 8 | = | - 4 | = 4
