there’s 2 basic cases you’ll see to find the diameter (a line that basically cuts the circle in half)

you’ll either be given the radius (the distance between the center of the circle to any point on the circle) or the circumference (the perimeter of the circle)

so you have two equations:

diameter= 2*radius

circumference= diameter * pi

if they gave you the radius, simply multiply by 2 as the first equation states. if they give you the circumference, divide the circumference by pi (which is approx. 3.14)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you know the radius of the circle, double it to get the diameter. The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to its edge. If the radius of the circle is 4 cm, then the diameter of the circle is 4 cm x 2, or 8 cm. If you know the circumference of the circle, divide it by π to get the diameter

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (6,14) and is parallel to the line with the following equation? y

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$y=\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}x+22$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we need to know:

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
Parallel lines always have the same slope (m)

Determine the slope (m):

$y=\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}x -1$

The slope of the given line is $\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}$ , since it is in the place of m in y=mx+b. Because parallel lines always have the same slope, the slope of a parallel line would also be $\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}$ . Plug this into y=mx+b:

$y=\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}x+b$

Determine the y-intercept (b):

$y=\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}x+b$

To find the y-intercept, plug in the given point (6,14) and solve for b:

$14=\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}(6)+b\\\\14=-8+b\\b=22$

Therefore, the y-intercept of the line is 22. Plug this back into $y=\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}x+b$ :

$y=\displaystyle-\frac{4}{3}x+22$

I hope this helps!

Find the unit rate,Kenny reads 5/8 pages in 2/3 minute.Please show your work.

ser-zykov [4K]

Unit rate in this case would be pages per minute so divide (5/8)pages÷(2/3)minute.
Dividing a fraction can be done as multiplying by the reciprocal.
(5/8)·(3/2)=15/16pages per minute or 0.9375 pages/min.
