Answer:

a. Slope (m): ⅓

b. y-intercept (b): 5

c. Equation: y = ⅓x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3a. Using two pairs from the table, say, (-3, 4) and (0, 5):

Slope = m = ∆y/∆x = (5 - 4)/(0 -(-3)) = 1/3

m = ⅓

b. y-intercept (b) is the value of y, when x = 0.

Thus, from the table, when x = 0, y = 5.

Therefore, y-intercept (b) = 5

c. Substitute m = ⅓, and b = 5 into y = mx + b

The equation is:

y = ⅓x + 5

Answer:

$5x - 4 = 3x - 6 \\ 5x - 3x = 4 - 6 \\ 2x = - 2 \\ \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{ - 2}{2} \\ x = - 1$

Solve the given inequality. Describe the solution set using the set builder or interval notation. Then graph the solution set on

Sophie [7]

Answer: THIRD OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following inequality:

$3(x-5)\geq 6$

You can follow these steps in order to solve it:

1. Apply Distributive property on the left side:

$3(x-5)\geq 6\\\\(3)(x)+(3)(-5)\geq 6\\\\3x-15\geq 6$

2. Add 15 to both sides of the inequality:

$3x-15+(15)\geq 6+(15)\\\\3x\geq 21$

3. Finally, divide both sides of the inequality by 3:

$\frac{3x}{3}\geq \frac{21}{3}\\\\x\geq 7$

The symbol is $\geq$ means "Greater than or equal to", and indicates that 7 is include in the solution.

Therefore, the solution can be expressed as:

$[7, \infty)$

Now you must mark this point with a closed dot on the number line and shade everything to the right.

If you are on a ship at sea navigating to a point that is 300 miles north and 400 miles west, find the distance from tour ship t

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

$\huge \boxed{\mathrm{500 \ miles}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle is formed.

300 miles and 400 miles are the legs of the triangle.

We can apply Pythagorean theorem.

$c=\sqrt{300^2 +400^2 }$

$c=\sqrt{90000 +160000}$

$c=\sqrt{250000}$

$c=500$

Each cone of the hourglass has a height of 12 millimeters. The total height of the sand within the top portion of the hourglass

Harman [31]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

Volume of a cylinder = pi * r^2 * h

Volume of a cone = 1/3 * pi * r^2 * h

Total Height = 47

Height of the cone = 12

Height of the cylinder = 35

If the top half is filled with sand, then:

volume (sand) = pi * 4^2 * 36

volume (cone) = 1/3 * pi * 4^2 * 12

Total volume = 1960.353816 cubic millimeters

353816 / (10 * pi) = 62.4 seconds.

It will take 62.4 seconds until all of the sand has dripped to the bottom of the hourglass.
