Answer:

the y intercept is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

the 4 is where the line starts so it would be (0,4)

First, notice that this equation is written in slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form where the multiplier, m, or the coefficient of the ex term represents the slope of the line and the b or the constant term represents the y-intercept of the line.

I have attached slope-intercept form below.

Notice that below, the b is in place of the 4 in the equation.

So the y-intercept or the b is 4.

Bradley and Kelly are out flying kites at a park one afternoon. A model of Bradley and Kelly's kites are shown below on the coor

Alex787 [66]

The correct answer is:

C. They are similar because the corresponding sides of kites KELY and BRAD all have the relationship 2:1.

Using the distance formula,

$d=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}$

the lengths of the sides of BRAD are:

$\text{BR}=\sqrt{(7-6)^2+(3-4)^2}=\sqrt{1^2+(-1)^2}=\sqrt{1+1}=\sqrt{2}\\\\\text{RA}=\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(4-3)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+1^2}=\sqrt{9+1}=\sqrt{10}\\\\\text{AD}=\sqrt{(3-6)^2+(3-2)^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+1^2}=\sqrt{9+1}=\sqrt{10}\\\\\text{DB}=\sqrt{(6-7)^2+(2-3)^2}=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-1)^2}=\sqrt{1+1}=\sqrt{2}$

The lengths of the sides of KELY are:

$\text{KE}=\sqrt{(2-0)^2+(11-9)^2}=\sqrt{2^2+2^2}=\sqrt{4+4}=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}\\\\\text{EL}=\sqrt{(0-2)^2+(9-3)^2}=\sqrt{(-2)^2+6^2}=\sqrt{40}=2\sqrt{10}\\\\\text{LY}=\sqrt{(2-4)^2+(3-9)^2}=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-6)^2}=\sqrt{40}=2\sqrt{10}\\\\\text{YK}=\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(9-11)^2}=\sqrt{2^2+(-2)^2}=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}$

Each side of KELY is twice the length of the corresponding side on BRAD. This makes the ratio of the sides 2:1 and the figures are similar.

Ruiz needs to buy a countertop for a kitchen. He calculated the area to be 16 square feet. The actual area is 15.4 square feet.

Marina86 [1]

First, subtract the two values:

16 - 15.4 = 0.6

Now divide this to the actual area:

0.6 / 15.4 = 0.038961039

Multiply by 100:

0.038961039 * 100 = 3.8961039

So the percent error is approximately 3.9%
