Answer:

1 yard

Step-by-step explanation:

7/14 is 1/2 while 9/14 is greater than 1/2 but a lot less than a whole. So a strong estimate would assume that it is (1 1/2)-(1/2) for the approximate difference in  their throws were

The answer would be 1 yards because 1 and 7/14 minus 9/14 is 12/14 which rounds to 1 yard

What is the slope and y-intercept of the line 3x - 4y = 12?*
Lorico [155]

Answer:

m = 3/4; b = -3    

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, put the given equation into slope-intercept form. This is so we can identify its slope and y-intercept easily. Isolate y:

3x-4y = 12\\-4y = -3x+12\\y = \frac{3}{4} x-3

2) Lines that are in slope-intercept form are represented by the formula y = mx + b. The number in place of m, or the coefficient of the x-term, represents the slope. The number in place of b represents the y-intercept. So, the slope of  y = \frac{3}{4} x-3  is \frac{3}{4}, and its y-intercept is -3.

Answer:

6.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Sine Law we know that

\dfrac{a}{SinA}=\dfrac{b}{SinB}=\dfrac{c}{SinC}

Using your figure let's assign sides and angles:

A=? B = 60° C = 70°

a = 5 b = ? c = x

If we put that into our formula:

\dfrac{5}{Sin?}=\dfrac{?}{Sin60}=\dfrac{x}{Sin70}

Notice that we have too many unknowns. We need to complete at least one ratio to do this, so how do we do this?

Notice we have 2 angles given, so we solve for the third angle. The sum of all angles in any triangle is always 180°

∠A + ∠B + ∠C= 180°

∠A + 60° + 70° = 180°

∠A + 130° = 180°

∠A = 180° - 130°

∠A = 50°

Now we can use this to solve for x.

\dfrac{5}{Sin50}=\dfrac{x}{Sin70}\\\\\dfrac{(5)(Sin70)}{Sin50} = x\\\\\dfrac{4.6985}{0.7660}=x\\\\6.1338 =x

So the closest answer would be 6.13

If a cylinder has a height of 21 cm and a volume of 11,144 cm^3.
nataly862011 [7]
\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\
V=\pi r^2 h\qquad 
\begin{cases}
h=height\\
r=radius\\
----------\\
h=21\\
V=11,144
\end{cases}\implies 11,144=\pi \cdot  r^2\cdot 21

What is the remainder when the polynomial f(x) = x³ - x² + 3x - 2, is divided by 2x - 1​
Contact [7]

Answer:

Equate the divisor to 0

2x-1=0

2×=1

×=1/2

Putting onto the polynomial

f(1/2) = (1/2)³-1/2)²+3(1/2)-2

=-5/8
