Answer:

In the equation y = mx + b for a straight line, the number m is called the slope of the line. Let x = 0, then y = m • 0 + b, so y = b. The number b is the coordinate on the y-axis where the graph crosses the y-axis.

A vehicle travels 57 kilometers north and then travels 26 kilometers south. What is the current position of the vehicle? (2 poin

solniwko [45]

Answer:

C. 31 kilometers north of its starting location

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Please see attached a rough sketch of the situation for your reference</em>.

Step one:

Displacement North= 57km

Displacement South= 26km

Required

The final displacement

The current position is attained by subtracting 26km from 57km

=57-26= 31km

Therefore the current position is

C. 31 kilometers north of its starting location

Someone help with this

timama [110]

Answer:

18% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

7,500 - 6,125 = $1,375
Set up a proportion: $\frac{1375}{7500} = \frac{x}{100}$
Cross multiply, then divide: 1375 × 100 = 137500, 137500 ÷ 7500 = 18 1/3
18 1/3% rounded = 18%
It went down, so it is a decrease

I hope this helps!

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Net A is the correct net. If we decide to fold the net, we'd get the shape of the prism. Folding back net B won't give us the shape of the prism because of the position and arrangement of the right triangular bases.

Part B:

AB = 3in

BC = 5 in

CD = 9.4 in

Part C: surface area of the prism can be calculated by calculating the area of each part of the net, and summing them together as follows,

Area of the 2 triangular bases = 2(½*base*height of triangle) = 2(½*4*3) = 2*2*3 = 12 in²

Area of the three rectangles =

$= (9.4*4) + (9.4*3) + (9.4*5) = 37.6 + 28.2 + 47 = 112.8 in^2$

Surface area of prism = 12 + 112.8 = 124.8 in²

Rebecca went swimming yesterday. After a while she had covered one fifth of her intended distance. After swimming six more lengt

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Option E.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the intended length of Rebecca's swimming is = x units

and we assume the length of the pool = l units

Now it is given in the question that " She covers one fifth of her intended distance "

That means distance covered = $\frac{x}{5}$

" After swimming six more lengths of the pool she had covered one quarter of her intended distance"

So $\frac{x}{5}+6(l)=\frac{x}{4}$

$6l=\frac{x}{4}-\frac{x}{5}$

$6l=\frac{x}{20}$

x = 20×(6l)

x = 120l

Therefore, Rebecca has to complete 120 lengths of the pool.

Option E is the answer.

Subtract 8 y^2 − 5 y + 7 from 2 y^2 + 7 y + 1 1 <br><br> The answer is: −6y ^2 +12y+4

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{-6y^2+12y+4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(2y^2+7y+11)-(8y^2-5y+7)\\\\=2y^2+7y+11-8y^2-(-5y)-7\\\\=2y^2+7y+11-8y^2+5y-7\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=(2y^2-8y^2)+(7y+5y)+(11-7)\\\\=-6y^2+12y+4$
