Answer:

y = -x - 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is (-20-(-10) /(15-5)

= -10/10 = -1.

Now use the point slope form of a straight line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)   where m = the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

So we have:

y - (-10) = -1(x - 5)

y + 10 = -x + 5

y = -x + 5 - 10

y = -x - 5.

Answer:

y = -x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of the line is =(-20+10) / (15-5) = -10/10 = -1

Now equation of line is y+10=(-1)(x-5)

i.e. y+10= -x +5

i.e y = -x-5

Two cables support a 800​-lb ​weight, as shown. Find the tension in each cable.
jeka94

Answer:

  • 892 lb (right)
  • 653 lb (left)

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight is in equilibrium, so the net force on it is zero. If R and L represent the tensions in the Right and Left cables, respectively ...

  Rcos(45°) +Lcos(75°) = 800

  Rsin(45°) -Lsin(75°) = 0

Solving these equations by Cramer's Rule, we get ...

  R = 800sin(75°)/(cos(75°)sin(45°) +cos(45°)sin(75°))

     = 800sin(75°)/sin(120°) ≈ 892 . . . pounds

  L = 800sin(45°)/sin(120°) ≈ 653 . . . pounds

The tension in the right cable is about 892 pounds; about 653 pounds in the left cable.

_____

This suggests a really simple generic solution. For angle α on the right and β on the left and weight w, the tensions (right, left) are ...

  (right, left) = w/sin(α+β)×(sin(β), sin(α))

What is 0.95 as a simplified fraction?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

19/20

Step-by-step explanation:

A "simplified fraction" in this case is the ratio of two integers.

0.95 = 95/100 (the ratio of two integers), which in turn can be simplified:

95/100 = 19/20

A rectangular garden 200 square feet in area is to be fenced o against rabbits. Find thedimensions that will require the least a
Rudiy27

Answer:

20 ft by 10ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the garden =200 square feet

Let the dimensions of the garden be x and y

Area, xy=200

x=\frac{200}{y}

Since one side is already protected by a barn,

Perimeter of the garden=2x+y

P(y)=\frac{2X200}{y}+y

P(y)=\frac{400}{y}+y

P(y)=\frac{400+y^2}{y}

The minimum point of P(y) is the point where its derivative equals zero.

P^{1}(y)=\frac{y^2-400}{y^2}

\frac{y^2-400}{y^2}=0

y^2-400=0

y^2=400

y=20feet

Recall:

xy=200

20x=200

x=10feet

The dimensions of the garden that will require minimum fencing is 20 ft by 10ft
