What do the values of m and b represent in the equation y mx +b?

Mathematics

xeze [42]2 years ago
5 0

The lettering for m and b in this equation are mostly nonsensical to us today, but here:

m is your slope (rise/run, steepness) and b is the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis aka when x=0).

A rectangle has a length that is 9 feet less than four times its width. Its area is 90 square feet
kramer

Answer:

The length of rectangle is 15\ ft

The width of rectangle is 6\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the length of rectangle

y----> the width of rectangle

we know that

The area of rectangle is equal to

A=xy

A=90\ ft^{2}

so

90=xy -----> equation A

x=4y-9 -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

90=(4y-9)y

4y^{2}-9y-90=0

using a graphing calculator

The solution is

y=6\ ft

Find the value of x

x=4y-9  -----> x=4(6)-9=15\ ft

The measures of the angles between the resultant and two applied forces are 26° and
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

  48.8 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The forces can be modeled by a triangle with acute angles 20° and 26°, and obtuse angle 134° opposite a side of length 80. The larger component force will be opposite the angle 26°, and can be found using the Law of Sines:

  a/sin(A) = c/sin(C)

  x/sin(26°) = 80/sin(134°)

  x = 80sin(26°)/sin(134°) ≈ 48.753 . . . . pounds

The larger component force is about 48.8 pounds.
