Answer:

y=-1/4x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the point (-8,3) and a slope of -1/4

lines are typically written in the formula y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

as we are already given the slope, we can substitute its value into the equation

substitute -1/4 as m

y=-1/4x+b

now we need to find b

as the equation passes through the point (-8,3),we can use it to solve for b

substitute -8 as x and 3 as y

3=-1/4(-8)+b

multiply

3=2+b

subtract 2 from both sides

1=b

substitute 1 as b

y=-1/4x+1

A construction crew is building a two story house, but they have not built the staircase between the floor yet. The height of th

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

13.4feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up forms a right triangle.

Given

Height of the staircase h = 12 feet

Base of the stairs b = 6feet

Required

Length of the ramp l

Using the pythagoras theorem

l² = h² + b²

l² = 12²+6²

l² = 144 + 36

l² = 180

l = √180

l = 13.42 feet

Hence the length of the ramp to the nearest tenth is 13.4feet

An exponentially function is expressed in the form y = axb^x . The relation represents a growth when _ and a decay when _ .

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The relation represents a growth when b>1 and a decay when 0<b<1

Step-by-step explanation:

Any function in the form $f(x)= a(b^x)$ , where a > 0, b > 0 and b not equal to 1 is called an exponential function with base b. If 0 < b < 1. It is an example of an exponential decay. The general shape of an exponential with b > 1 is an example of exponential growth. An exponential function is expressed in the form $y=a(b^x)$ The relation represents a growth when b >1 and a decay when 0<b<1.
