The point slope form of a line that has a slope of -2 and passes through point (5,-2) is shown below.

1 answer:

4 0

Insert the point, (5,-2) with the slope of the line to figure out the equation. You can either use point-slope form, or plug it for for slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form:
-2 = -2(5) + b
-2 = -10 + b
Add 10 on both sides
8 = b

Thus,

y = -2x + 8

Answer is B

the sum of two numbers is 63. one ninth of the first number plus one sixth of the second number is 21. find the numbers

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: x= -189, y =252

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x and second number be y

x + y = 63

x = 63-y

now

1/9 of x + 1/6 of y = 21

x/9 + y/6 = 21

substituting x's value from equation i

(63-y)/9 + y/6 = 21

(378-6y+9y)/54 = 21

378+3y = 1134

3y = 1134-378

so, 3y = 756

so, y = 756/3

so, y = 252

now

x = 63-252

so, x = -189

Find the volume of this square<br> based pyramid.<br> 5ft<br> 6 ft<br> [? ]ft

Sav [38]

Answer:

48 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the height, you can use the slant height and the base.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem and 3 as the triangle's base,

a²+b²=c²

3²+b²=5²

9+b²=25

b²=16

b=4

The height of the pyramid is 4.

Volume formula for the pyramid is $\frac{1}{3} *b*h$

Inserting our measurements:

$\frac{1}{3} *6*6*4=\\2*6*4=\\12*4=\\48$
