3. A line goes through the points (3,4) and (-3,6).
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Part a) The slope is m=-\frac{1}{3}

Part b) The equation in point slope form is y-4=-\frac{1}{3}(x-3)

Part c) The equation in slope-intercept form is y=-\frac{1}{3}x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the points (3,4) and (-3,6)

Part a) What is the slope of the line?

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the given points

m=\frac{6-4}{-3-3}

m=\frac{2}{-6}

m=-\frac{1}{3}

Part b) Write the equation of the line in point-slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=-\frac{1}{3}

point\ (3,4)

substitute

y-4=-\frac{1}{3}(x-3)  ---> equation in point slope form

Part c) Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

we have

y-4=-\frac{1}{3}(x-3)

Isolate the variable y

distribute right side

y-4=-\frac{1}{3}x+1

Adds 4 both sides

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+1+4

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+5 ---> equation in slope intercept form

Eden just bought a trough in the shape of a rectangular prism for her horses. She needs to know what volume of water to add to t
notsponge [240]

The volume of the trough is V(w) = w³ + 20w² - 429w and the rate of change of the volume over a width of 38 inches to 53 inches is 4695 in³/in

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let w represent the width, hence:

length = w + 33, height = w - 13

Volume (V) = w(w + 33)(w - 13) = w³ + 20w² - 429w

V(w) = w³ + 20w² - 429w

Rate of change = dV/dw = 3w² + 40w - 429

When w = 38, dV/dw = 3(38)² + 40(38) - 429 = 5423

When w = 53, dV/dw = 3(53)² + 40(53) - 429 = 10118

Rate = 10118 - 5423 = 4695 in³/in

The volume of the trough is V(w) = w³ + 20w² - 429w and the rate of change of the volume over a width of 38 inches to 53 inches is 4695 in³/in

Answer: 130

In order to solve for <4, you need to know that supplementary angles add up to 180°. 
<3 = 50
180 - 50
130

**For future questions**
1. The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°
2. Alternate interior angles are congruent
3. The exterior angle of a triangle is the sum of the nonadjacent interior angles

A circle with radius 9 has a sector with a central angle of 120°.
Vitek1552 [10]

120º is 1/3 of a complete revolution of 360º. So the area of this sector should be 1/3 the area of the complete circle.

A circle with radius 9 has area 9^2 π = 81π.

So the sector has area 81π/3.

Put another way: The area <em>A</em> of a circular sector and its central angle <em>θ</em> (in degrees) occur in the same ratio as the area of the entire circle with radius <em>r</em> according to

<em>A</em> / <em>θ </em>º = (π <em>r </em>^2) / 360º

==>  <em>A</em> = π/360 <em>θ r</em> ^2

In this case, <em>r</em> = 9 and <em>θ</em> = 120º, so

<em>A</em> = π/360 * 120 * 81 = 81π/3
