Answer:5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-1)=8

divide both sides by 2

2(x-1) ➗ 2=8 ➗ 2

x-1=4

Add 1 to both sides

x-1+1=4+1

What is the area of major sector DFE?

melomori [17]

Answer:

B. 171.74 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a sector = $\frac{\theta}{360} \times \pi r^2$ .

Where,

$\theta = 260$

radius (r) = 8.7 cm

Plug in the values into the formula

Area of sector = $\frac{260}{360} \times \pi 8.7^2$

Area of sector = $\frac{260 \times \pi 75.69}{360}$

Area of sector = 171.74 cm² (approximated)

Which equation is in slope intercept form and represents a line with the slope three through the point (9,-4)

beks73 [17]

Answer:

y = 3x - 31

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

here m = 3, thus

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (9, - 4) into the partial equation

- 4 = 27 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 27 = - 31

y = 3x - 31 ← equation in slope- intercept form
