Answer:

-\frac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

between (1, 9) and (10, 8), the x moves by 9 and y moves by -1

The slope is equal to: \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac{-1}{9} = -\frac{1}{9}

The area of a rectangle is 27 m^2 , and the length of the rectangle is 3 m less than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the
vagabundo [1.1K]
Let L be the length of the rectangle and W be the width. In the problem it is given that L=2W-3. It is also given that the area LW=27. Substituting in the length in terms of width, we have W(2W-3)=27 \\ 2W^2-3W-27=0 \\ (2W-9)(W+3)=0. Using the zero product property, 2W-9=0 \text{ or } W+3=0. Solving these we get the width W=4.5 \text{ or } -3. However, it doesn't make sense for the width to be negative, so the width must be \boxed{4.5 \text{ m}}. From that we can tell the length L=2(4.5)-3=\boxed{6 \text{ m}}.

For tax purposes, a car rental company assumes each car in their fleet depreciates by 6% per year. If the initial value of a car
n200080 [17]

The value of a car after 10 years be $20898.27 if the car rental company assumes each car in their fleet depreciates by 6% per year option (a) $20898.27 is correct.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always a positive. It denotes with exponent \rm y = a^x

where a is a constant and a>1

We can solve this problem by exponential function:

The word  depreciate means the price is decreasing.

We can find the value be when the car is 10 years old:

p = 38800(1 - 0.06)¹⁰

p = 38800(0.94)¹⁰

p = 20898.266 ≈ $20898.27

Thus, the value of a car after 10 years be $20898.27 if the car rental company assumes each car in their fleet depreciates by 6% per year option (a) $20898.27 is correct.

I need help with this question
Viktor [21]
Y = 4x + 3  ---------(1)
y = -x - 2    ---------(2)

Subtract (2) from (1), you get
0 = 5x + 5
⇒ 5x + 5 = 0
⇒ 5x = -5
⇒ x = -5/5 = -1
y = -(-1) - 2 = -1

Answer is (-1,-1)

The directrix of a parabola is y=−4y=−4 . The focus of the parabola is (−2,−2)(−2,−2) .
salantis [7]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The directrix is y = -4 and the focus is (-2, -2).
Therefore the vertex is at (-2, -3).

Consider an arbitrary point (x,y) on the parabola.
The square of distance from the focus to the point is
(x+2)² + (y+2)²
The square of the distance from the point to the directrix is
(y+4)²

Therefore
(y+4)² = (y+2)² + (x+2)²
y² + 8y + 16 = y² + 4y + 4 + (x+2)²
4y = (x+2)² - 12
y = (1/4)(x+2)² - 3

Answer: y =  \frac{1}{4} (x+2)^{2} - 3
