Answers:

a = 2

b = 3

=======================================================

Explanation:

Plug in x = 0 and y = 2 to find that

y = a*b^x

2 = a*b^0

2 = a*1

2 = a

a = 2

Then plug in x = 3 and y = 54 to determine the value of b

y = a*b^x

y = 2*b^x

54 = 2*b^3

2b^3 = 54

b^3 = 54/2

b^3 = 27

b = (27)^(1/3)

b = 3

So we have y = a*b^x update to y = 2*3^x

Slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b

m=slope
b=y-intercept 

Data:
m=4/5
b=-1

y=mx+b
y=(4/5)x-1

Answer: the equation of the line with slope=4/5, and y-intercept=-1 would be:
y=(4/5)x-1

Answer:

The height of right circular cone is h = 15.416 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to calculate lateral surface area of right circular cone is: s=\pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}

where r is radius and h is height.

We are given:

Lateral surface area s = 236.64 cm²

Radius r = 4.75 cm

We need to find height of right circular cone.

Putting values in the formula and finding height:

s=\pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}\\236.64=3.14(4.75)\sqrt{(3.75)^2+h^2} \\236.64=14.915\sqrt{(3.75)^2+h^2} \\\frac{236.64}{14.915}=\sqrt{14.0625+h^2}  \\15.866=\sqrt{14.0625+h^2} \\Switching\:sides\:\\\sqrt{14.0625+h^2} =15.866\\Taking\:square\:on\:both\:sides\\(\sqrt{14.0625+h^2})^2 =(15.866)^2\\14.0625+h^2=251.729\\h^2=251.729-14.0625\\h^2=237.6665\\Taking\:square\:root\:on\:both\:sides\\\sqrt{h^2}=\sqrt{237.6665} \\h=15.416

So, the height of right circular cone is h = 15.416 cm
