Use the graph to write a linear function that relates y to x.
1 answer:
Answer:
y = x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 6, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 4) ← 2 points on the line
m = =
=
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3) ⇒ c = 3
y = x + 3 ← linear equation

Answer:
length of chord is 6cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are to calculate the length of the chord.
It should be understood that the chord has a length of 0.8cm from the center of the circle of radius 3cm, thereby forming two right-angled triangles with the radius 3cm being the hypotenuse of each and 0.8cm being the height of each.
Now, the chord is divided into 2 by this height dropping from the center of the circle. To calculate the first half, we use Pythagoras’ theorem with 3cm being hypotenuse and 0.8cm being the other side.
mathematically;
3^2 = 0.8^2 + l^2
9 = 0.64 + l^2
l^2 = 9-0.64
l^2 = 8.36
l = √(8.36)
l = 2.89 approximately
The length of the chord would be 2l = 2 * 2.89 = 5.78 cm which is 6cm to the nearest length
