Time is your independent variable, and snowfall is your dependent variable.
Slope can be found by calculating ∆y/∆x:
Snowfall will accumulate 0.02 m every hour.
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope solve the equation in the form of y=mx+b.
4x-6y=18
-6y= -4x+18
y= 2/3x-3
The slope is 2/3.
Answer:
no they are not proportional
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y=5x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept form=y=mx+b
so
2y-10x=-6
2y=10x-6
y=5x-3
First, let me introduce the general equation of the parabola:
(x-h)^2 = +/- 4a(y-k) or (y-k)^2=+/- 4a(x-h), where
(h,k) are the coordinates of the vertex
a is the distance of the vertex to the focus
4a = length of lactus rectum or the focal width
If the equation contains (x-h)^2, then the parabola passes the x-axis twice. Similarly, (y-k)^2 passes the y-axis twice. If the sign is (-), it opens to the left(if y-axis) or downward (if x-axis). If the sign is (+), it opens to the right(if y-axis) or upward (if x-axis).
The equation of the parabola is -1/12 x^2 = y. Rearranging to the general form:
x^2 = -12y
Therefore,
-4a = -12
4a = 12
a = 3, and the parabola is facing downwards.
The vertex is (0,0) at the origin.
The focus is (0,-3). Since it is negative, the focus is situated downwards, hence -3.
The directrix is the mirror image of the focus. Hence, it is a line passing +3 on the y-axis. y=3
Focal width is 4a which is equal to 12 units.
