Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x -9y =4

To find the slope get the equation in slope intercept form ( y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

Subtract 3x from each side

-9y = -3x+4

Divide each side by -9

-9y/-9 = -3x/-9 +4/-9

y = 1/3x -4/9

The slope is 1/3 and the y intercept is -4/9

Can someone tell me if my answer to this problem is correct, please? And if it isn't how do you solve it?

Answer:

Height of tree= 13.8m

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding the value of a in your working, I suggest to leave the answer to 5 significant figures so that your final answer is more accurate. The value of a should be 26.048m to 5 s.f.

Then multiplying 26.048 with sin 32° would give you 13.8m too when rounded off to 3 significant figures :)

I have attached my working too.

Am I correct on number 3? If not whats the correct answer? And what is the answer for number 4? Will be marking brainliest!!

timama [110]

Answer for number 4 is $\frac{\bold2}{\bold3}$ hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum hour spent for all homework (English homework + math homework) is 2 hours.

Let us assume the hours spent for English homework be 'e'.

It is given that:

(Hours spent for math homework) = 2 × (Hours spent for English homework)

Hours spent for math homework = 2 × e = 2e

Total hours spent = (Hours spent for math homework) + (Hours spent for English homework)

Total hours spent = 2e + e = 3e

2 = 3e

3e = 2

∴ e = $\frac{\bold2}{\bold3}$

Therefore number of hours spent on English homework is equal to $\frac{\bold2}{\bold3}$ hours.

An online music store offers 5 downloads for $6.25.Another online music store offers 12 downloads for $17.40.Which store offers

Anon25 [30]

Well, what you have to do is find the unit rate for each one of those prices and how you do that is by dividing each price by the downloads

so $6.25 divided by 5= $1.25

and then $17.40 divided by 12= $1.45

so that means the one with $6.25/5 downloads has a better deal!
