Answer:

<em>x - 5y = - 10 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b (b is y-intercept)

m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }

~~~~~~~~~~~~

x + 4y = 8 ⇔ y = -\frac{1}{4} x + 2 ⇒ y-intercept is 2 and coordinates of y-intercept are <u><em>(0, 2)</em></u>

(5, 3)

m = \frac{3-2}{5-0} = \frac{1}{5}

y = \frac{1}{5} x + 2 (slope-intercept form)

<em>x - 5y = - 10</em> (standard form)

If a line crosses the y-axis at (0, 1) and has a slope of 45, what is the equation of the line?
tamaranim1 [39]
The general equation of a line is expressed as:

y = mx + b 

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We are given the slope of the line and its y-intercept (m = 4/5, b = 1).

y = (4/5)x + 1 

5(y - (4/5)x = 1)

5y - 4x = 5

The answer should be option D.

Which statements are true regarding the diagram? Check all that apply.
dem82 [27]

Answer:

1, 2, 3, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't really know how to explain this but if the only change between the two triangles is that it was reflected, then there was no change of any of the angles or side lengths, you just have to make sure you match up the rights angles and the right sides.

A farmer has 1,800 feet of fencing and wants to fence off a rectangular field that borders a straight river. he needs no fence a
astra-53 [7]
There are 2 short sides x and 1 long side y.

x+x+y=1,800
2x+y=1,800
y=1,800-2x

The area of the rectangle is A=x(1,800-x).


A is a function with variable x. Moreover it is a quadratic (second degree) function.

The graph of the function is a parabola which opens downwards, because the signs of the leading coefficients of the factors, multiply to minus:

(x)(-x)=-x^2.


This means that the highest point of the parabola, is its vertex V(h,k), so the function takes its largest value for x=h.


The roots of A=x(1,800-x) are x=0 and x=1,800, thus the x coordinate of the vertex, must be the midpoint of 0 and 1,800, that is 900.


Answer:

A=x(1,800-x)

largest area is when x=900
