Answer:

Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points. (–5.5, 6.1), (–2.5, 3.1)

Use the slope formula to find the slope  m .

m =  − 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is  

m

=

ANSWER

The slope is

EXPLANATION

The slope of the line that passes through,

can be found using the formula,

So we let,

and

We substitute them into the formula to get,

This gives us,

We simplify to get,

slope = -1

Write the equation for a circle that satisfies the given conditions.
Alisiya [41]

The standard form of a circle is:

(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2

Your center is (-10,  -6) and your radius is 9

Plug them into the equation and you get

(x-(-10))+(y-(-6)) = 9^2

(x+10)^2 + (y+6)^2=81

The correct answer is D.

A rectangular box has a square base. The combined length of a side of the square base, and the height is 20 in. Let x be the len
aniked [119]

Answer:

a. V = (20-x) x^{2} in^{3}  

b . 1185.185 in^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

  • The height:  20  - x (in )
  • Let x be the length of a side of the base of the box (x>0)

a. Write a polynomial function in factored form modeling the volume V of the box.

As we know that, this is a rectangular box has a square base so the Volume of it is:

V = h *x^{2} in^{3}

<=> V = (20-x) x^{2}  in^{3}

b. What is the maximum possible volume of the box?

To  maximum the volume of it, we need to use first derivative of the volume.

<=> dV / Dx = -3x^{2} + 40x

Let dV / Dx = 0, we have:

-3x^{2} + 40x  = 0

<=> x = 40/3

=>the height h = 20/3

So  the maximum possible volume of the box is:

V = 20/3 * 40/3 *40/3

= 1185.185 in^{3}
