Answer: 2x + 0.5 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

A square has 4 equal sides. Therefore, its perimeter is calculated by adding the four sides.

Since the perimeter of a square is 8x +2 units, to get the length of one side, we divide the perimeter by 4. This will be:

= (8x + 2)/4

= 2x + 0.5

Therefore, the length of one side is 2x + 0.5 unit

Use the point-slope form to find the ewuation of the line through the points (-5,2) and (-2,6)
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The equation of the line through the points (-5, 2) and (-2, 6) is y = \frac{4}{3}\cdot x +\frac{26}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of the line is defined by this formula:

y-y_{1} = m\cdot (x-x_{1}) (1)

Where:

x - Independent variable.

y - Dependent variable.

m - Slope.

x_{1}, y_{1} - Coordinates of the first point.

In addition, the slope of the line can be determined in terms of two distinct points:

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} (2)

Where x_{2}, y_{2} are the coordinates of the second point.

If we know that x_{1} = -5, y_{1} = 2, x_{2} = -2 and y_{2} = 6, then the equation of the line is:

m = \frac{6-2}{-2-(-5)}

m = \frac{4}{3}

y-2 = \frac{4}{3}\cdot (x+5)

y = \frac{4}{3}\cdot x +\frac{26}{3}

The equation of the line through the points (-5, 2) and (-2, 6) is y = \frac{4}{3}\cdot x +\frac{26}{3}.

Year 1978 1979 1980 1990 1991 1996 1997 2007 2008 2009 Minimum hourly wage ($) 2.65 2.90 3.35 3.80 4.25 4.75 5.15 5.85 6.55 7.25
Juliette [100K]
From the excel plotting, we see that the least square regression equation is given by:
m=(7.25-2.65)/(2009-1978)
m=0.15
thus the equation will be:
0.15(x-0)=y-2.65
y=0.15x-2.65

b] Using the equation we can approximate the hourly wage in 2025 as follows:
x=(2025-1978)=47
y=0.15(47)-2.65
y=7.05-2.65
y=4.4
The plot is as shown in the figure:

Suppose in Loma, Montana the temperature rose from -2.3 degrees Fahrenheit to 8.6 degrees Fahrenheit. What is the change in temp
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

A: 10.9

Step-by-step explanation:   -2.3 is 2.3 away from zero then add the length from zero to the postive number which in this case is 8.6, therefore the equation is 2.3 + 8.6 = 10.9
