If f(x)=mx+b what are the values of m and b​

Mathematics
1 answer:
GaryK [48]3 years ago
6 0

The m variable is the slope of the line and controls its 'steepness'. A positive value has the slope going up to the right. A negative slope goes down to the right. The b variable is the y intercept - the point where the line crosses the y axis.

example 1                                                    

y = mx + b

m = slope b = y-intercept

y = 3x - 1

m = 3 and b = -1

example 2

y = b + m<em>x</em><em> </em>

b = y-intercept m = slope

y = 5 - 1/2x

m =- 1/2 and b = 5

The cosine rule calculate tha angle of r 7.2 3,7 5.2
Leya [2.2K]

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

To find:

The measure of angle r by using the cosine rule.

Solution:

According to Law of Cosine,

a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc\cos A

Using the Law of Cosine, we get

(7.2)^2=(3.7)^2+(5.2)^2-2(3.7)(5.2)\cos r

51.84=13.69+27.04-38.48\cos r

51.84=40.73-38.48\cos r

51.84-40.73=-38.48\cos r

On further simplification, we get

11.11=-38.48\cos r

\dfrac{11.11}{-38.48}=\cos r

-0.2887=\cos r

\cos^{-1}(-0.2887)=r

106.780143=r

r\approx 106.78

Therefore, the measure of angle r is 106.78 degrees.
