-1/3x is the slope of the line

PilotLPTM [1.2K]3 years ago

6 0

If you don't have a graph to use to figure out the slope of an equation you can use the formula:

y-y
----------- ( y-y over x-x)
x-x

if you substitute in the two coordinates you were given the new equation looks like this:

2-0
----------- =slope
-5-1.

If you solve you get 2-0=2 and -5-1= -6 so the slope would be:

-2
---- which simplifies to: -1/3
6.

The average rate of blood flow is given by

$\displaystyle\frac1{R-0}\int_0^Rv(r)\,\mathrm dr=\frac kR\int_0^R(R^2-r^2)\,\mathrm dr$
$=\dfrac kR\left(R^2r-\dfrac13r^3\right)\bigg|_{r=0}^{r=R}$
$=\dfrac kR\left(R^3-\dfrac13R^3\right)$
$=\dfrac{2kR^2}3$

Find the missing side lengths leave your answer as a racials simplest form

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

m= $7\sqrt3$

n=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a right triangle (notice the 90°) angle, the measure of one of the acute angles as 60°, and the measure of the hypotenuse (the side OPPOSITE from the 90 degree angle) as 14

We need to find the lengths of m and n

Firstly, let's find the measure of the other acute angle

The acute angles in a right triangle are complementary, meaning they add up to 90 degrees

Let's make the measure of the unknown acute angle x

So x+60°=90°

Subtract 60 from both sides

x=30°

So the measure of the other acute angle is 30 degrees

This makes the right triangle a special kind of right triangle, a 30°-60°-90° triangle

In a 30°-60°-90° triangle, if the length of the hypotenuse is a, then the length of the leg (the side that makes up the right angle) opposite from the 30 degree angle is $\frac{a}{2}$ , and the leg opposite from the 60 degree angle is $\frac{a\sqrt3}{2}$

In this case, a=14, n= $\frac{a}{2}$ , and m= $\frac{a\sqrt3}{2}$

Now substitute the value of a into the formulas to find n and m to find the lengths of those sides

So that means that n= $\frac{14}{2}$ , which is equal to 7

And m= $\frac{14\sqrt3}{2}$ , which simplified, is equal to $7\sqrt3$

Hope this helps!

Write a polynomial equation of least degree with roots 2, -1 and 4.

Rasek [7]

A polynomial with roots a and b is (x - a)(x - b).

(x - 2)(x - (-1))(x - 4) = 0

(x - 2)(x + 1)(x - 4) = 0

has roots 2, -1, and 4.

The total number of fungal spores can be found using an infinite geometric series where a1 = 9 and the common ratio is 5. Find t

pantera1 [17]

If the common ratio is greater than 1 (which it is in this case), then the series will be divergent. The infinite series will simply keep growing and growing, making it impossible to find the "upper limit." Thus, the correct answer is b.
