b. It depends on the value you assume for the power line voltage. If you assume it is 120 volts, then the ratio to battery voltage is
... (120 volts)/(1.2 volts) = 100
Power line voltage is 100 times as large as battery voltage.
_____
Please be aware of some difficulties in this question.
1. Power line voltage, even if it is "120 volts" varies over time from -170 V to +170 V, so is not really comparable to a battery's voltage, which is steady at 1.2 V.
2. The terminology "times larger" is ambiguous. When we answer the question, "how much larger is <em>a</em> than <em>b</em>," we give the response in terms of the difference a-b. Thus, if <em>a</em> is 2 times <em>larger</em> than <em>b</em>, we might be talking about the <em>difference</em> being twice the value of <em>b</em>. It is preferable to say "times as large as."
Answer:
y - 4 = -8/7(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Point-Slope form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
x₁ and y₁ would be the coordinates of the point (4,4).
m would be the slope -8/7.
Substituting these values:
y - 4 = -8/7(x - 4)
