Mathematics
1 answer:
igomit [66]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The number is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

5-x = 1+3x

or, 5 = 1+3x+x

or, 5 = 1+4x

or, 5-1 = 4x

or, 4x = 4

or, x = 4/4

so, x = 1

Complete the equation of the line through (-9,-9) and (-6,0)
Rudik [331]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis.

According to the data of the statement we have the following points:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 9, -9)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 6,0)

We found the slope:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0 - (- 9)} {- 6 - (- 9)} = \frac { 9} {- 6 + 9} = \frac {9} {3} = 3

Thus, the equation is of the form:

y = 3x + b

We substitute one of the points and find b:

0 = 3 (-6) + b\\0 = -18 + b\\b = 18

Finally, the equation is:

y = 3x + 18

Answer:

y = 3x + 18

What is the minimum number of angles required to determine the Cartesian components of a 3D vector and why?
Reika [66]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3D vector consists of 3 axes, let's say x, y and z.

Now, a vector P lies in all of them.

So, the angle it makes with x axis is α

The angle it makes with y axis is β

The angle it makes with z axis is γ

So, to determine the Cartesian components or to resolve the vector into it's Cartesian components we need 3 angles with each axis.
