Answer: The slope is (1/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function has the form:

y = a*x + b

where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

in our function, we have:

y = 1/8x - 1

so here (1/8) will be the slope and -1 will be the y-intercept.

The slope of the line is 1/8.

The slope is always attached to the x.

Hope this helps!!

The answer should be D
Step by Step: |2x-2| <(or equal to) 6
Add 2 on both sides should give you, |2x| < 8
Divide both sides by 2, giving you 4
Other way, is doing the same but -2

Find the area of following rhombuses. Round your answers to the nearest tenth if necessary.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

$Area =55.4ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached rhombus

Required

The area

First, calculate the length of half the vertical diagonal (x).

Length x is represented as the adjacent to 60 degrees

So, we have:

$\tan(60) = \frac{4\sqrt 3}{x}$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{4\sqrt 3}{\tan(60)}$

$\tan(60) = \sqrt 3$

So:

$x = \frac{4\sqrt 3}{\sqrt 3}$

$x = 4$

At this point, we have established that the rhombus is made up 4 triangles of the following dimensions

$Base = 4\sqrt 3$

$Height = 4$

So, the area of the rhombus is 4 times the area of 1 triangle

$Area = 4 * \frac{1}{2} * Base * Height$

$Area = 4 * \frac{1}{2} * 4\sqrt 3 * 4$

$Area =2 * 4\sqrt 3 * 4$

$Area =55.4ft^2$

Solve for x? I don't think any angle is a 90 degree angle. I didn't draw it exactly right.

Ulleksa [173]

From cosine law
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2abcos(C)
cos(C) = (a^2 + b^2 - c^2)/2ab
this formula will solve your problem

kap26 [50]

Answer:

90°

Step-by-step explanation:

as a straight line is 180°

and the angle 4 is 90 degrees it must mean that the other side is 90 degrees too
