What is the equation in point slope form of a line that passes through the point (–8, 2) and has a slope of 1/2?
Kamila [148]
Point slope equation: 
y-y1=m(x-x1) 
m=slope

So we simply plug in our given information: 
x1=-8 
y1=2
m=1/2

y-2=1/2(x-(-8)  

2 minus signs next to each other make a positive 

Final answer: 
y-2=1/2(x+8)

1.4t - 0.4 (t- 3.1) =5.8
GenaCL600 [577]
1 Expand
1.4t-0.4t+1.24=5.8

2 Simplify 1.4t-0.4t+1.241.4t−0.4t+1.24 to t+1.24t+1.24
t+1.24=5.8

3 Subtract 1.241.24 from both sides
t=5.8−1.24

4 Simplify 5.8-1.245.8−1.24 to 4.564.56
t=4.56

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the leg in the triangle shown below 12 15
Norma-Jean [14]

9 = x (assuming 15 is the hypotenuse)

Step-by-step explanation:

15^2 = 12^2 + x^2

225 = 144 + x^2

subtract 144 from both sides

81 = x^2

square root both sides

9 = x
