(-4,-3)(12,1)
slope(m) = (1 - (-3) / (12 - (-4)
slope(m) = (1 + 3) / (12 + 4)
slope(m) = 4/16 = 1/4

y - y1 = m(x - x1)...using (12,1)
y - 1 = 1/4(x - 12)
y - 1 = 1/4x - 3
y = 1/4x - 3 + 1
y = 1/4x - 2
-1/4x + y = -2...multiply by -4
x - 4y = 8 <=== here it is

Answer:

Option  A is correct.

x – 4y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using point slope form:

The equation of line is given by:

y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)                  ....[1]

where, m is the slope.

As per the statement:

The point passes through the line are:

(-4, -3) and (12, 1)

Using Slope(m) formula:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute the given values we have;

m = \frac{1+3}{12+4}=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{1}{4}

Substitute the value of m and (12, 1) in [1] we have;

y-1 = \frac{1}{4}(x-12)

Multiply both sides by 4 we have;

4y-4 = x-12

Add 4 to both sides we have;

4y= x-8

⇒-x+4y = -8

Multiply both sides by -1 we have;

⇒x-4y =8

Therefore, the standard form of the equation for this line is, x – 4y = 8

The area of a circle is 80.86cm2.<br> Find the length of the radius rounded to 2 DP.
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Solution given:

The area of a circle =80.86cm²

we have:

The area of a circle =πr²

substituting value of area of circle we get

80.86cm=3.14*r²

dividing both side by 3.14

80.86/3.14=3.14*r²/3.14

25.75=r²

doing square root on both side

\sqrt{25.75}=\sqrt{r²}

r=5.07cm

Find the area of the shape, show work pls ill give brainiest
andre [41]

Answer:

6.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Although there's multiple ways to solve this problem, my method will be to simply find the area for the full triangle (the empty + orange triangles) and subtract the area of the smaller, empty triangle.

Now, you that area for a triangle is 1/2*base*height.

To find the measurements for the full triangle, you must add up the bases for the two smaller triangles:

Base_{total}  = Base_{empty} + Base_{orange}  \\Base_{total} = 1.9ft + 3.1 ft\\Base_{total} = 5 ft

Height is the same for both triangles so Height total = 4 ft.

Now the total area can be calculated:

Area total= 1/2* base_total * height_total

Area total = 1/2 * 5ft * 4 ft  

Area total = 20 / 2 = 10 ft squared

Lastly, subtract the area of the empty triangle from the total triangle to find the orange triangle.

Area Empty Triangle = 1/2 * base_empty * height_empty

Area Empty Triangle = 1/2 * 1.9ft * 4 ft = 7.6 ft / 2 = 3.8 ft squared

Area total - Area empty = 10ft^2 - 3.8ft^2 = 6.2 ft squared
