Answer:

Altitude of the right triangle is 4 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude divides the right triangle's hypotenuse as 2 cm and 8 cm long.Let's use formula for similar right triangles proportional equation.I'll show you the diagram with steps.

The low temperature on Monday was 16°F. On Tuesday, the low was 18°F cooler. On Wednesday, the low temperature was –4 times Tues
drek231 [11]

Answer:

-4(16-18), [16 + (-18)](-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The low temperature on Monday was 16°F. The low temperature on Tuesday was 18°F cooler. The low temperature on Wednesday was –4 times Tuesday’s temperature.

To find: expression that can be used to describe the low temperature on Wednesday

Solution:

Temperature on Monday = 16°F

So,

Temperature on Tuesday = (16-18)\°F

Temperature on Wednesday = -4(16-18)\°F

So, expression -4(16-18)=(16-18)(-4) can be used to describe the low temperature on Wednesday.

Also,

(16-18)(-4)=[16 + (-18)](-4)\,\,\left \{\because  (a-b)=\left [ a+(-b) \right ] \right \}

So, expression [16 + (-18)](-4) also represent temperature on Wednesday.

The slope of the line is 0. It passes through the point (-3,4). Identify two other points on the line. Justify you answer
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Two other points: (2, 4) (6, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with a slope = 0 is a horizontal line [with a y-intercept of (0, <em>b</em>)], given by the linear equation, <em>y</em> = 4<em>.  </em>This means that the y-coordinate will always equal to 4, regardless of its corresponding x-coordinate. Basically, we could choose any x-coordinate to pair with the y-coordinate of 4.

I chose the ordered pairs, (2, 4) and (6, 4).

Attached is a screenshot of the graphed linear equation, y = 4.

Can someone solve 2x-3y=9 and give me the slope and y intercept SHOW WORK please
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The slope is 2/3 and the y-intercept is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you subtract 2/3 from both sides and get -3y=-2x+9. Then you divide -3 by -2 and -3 by 9 to get y=2/3-3.

Hope this helped I am not good at explaining but I did this unit like two months ago.
