Pick 2 coordinates:
I choose first & last one (0,15) & (8-9)
Change in y is 24
(15--9 = 24)
Change in x is 8
(0 - 8) = - 8
24/-8 = - 3
So, slope = - 3
Hope this helps!
The answer is A, because function 2 is defined by y=(5/8)x-3, as function 1 is defined by y=(3/4)x+1, meaning that function 1 has both a greater rate of change and a greater y-intercept.
Answer: A.
How high is a tree that casts a 33 ft shadow at the same time a 5 ft pole casts a shadow which is 12 ft long?
let x=height of the tree
x/33=5/12
x=5*33/12
x=13.75
The values of the letters in coordinates (a, b) and (c,d) are;
<u><em>a = -4</em></u>
<u><em>b = -6</em></u>
<u><em>c = 2</em></u>
<u><em>d = 6</em></u>
<u><em /></u>
We are given two equations;
-6x + 3y = 6 ---(eq 1)
x² + y = 10 ---(eq 2)
- We are told that they intersect at coordinates; (a, b) and (c, d).
Let us make y the subject in eq 2 to get;
y = 10 - x² --(eq 3)
- Let us put 10 - x² into eq 1 to get;
-6x + 3(10 - x²) = 6
expanding further gives;
-6x + 30 - 3x² = 6
rearranging gives;
3x² + 6x - 24 = 0
Using online quadratic equation <em>solver</em>, we have;
x = -4 and x = 2
Putting x = -4 into eq 3 gives;
y = 10 - (-4)²
y = 10 - 16
y = -6
Putting x = 2 into eq 3 gives;
y = 10 - (2)²
y = 10 - 4
y = 6
- Thus, the coordinates are; (-4, -6) and (2, 6)
Comparing with (a, b) and (c,d), we have;
a = -4
b = -6
c = 2
d = 6
