Answer:

slope = - 2

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 )

y = 4 - 2x , that is

y = - 2x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2

Which ratio is equivalent to 9/36

balandron [24]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the GCF. List out the factors of the numerator and the denominator. 1, 3, 9 are the factors of 9, while 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36 are the factors of 36. 9 is a common factor of both of them, so the GCF is 9.

Step 2: Divide the numerator and denominator by 9 (the GCF). 9/9 is 1. 36/9 is 4. This means that our fraction is 1/4. The fraction is in simplest form.

Maristella is constructing an isosceles triangle to use as a model in her Algebra class. The perimeter of her triangle is 24 cm.

Vlada [557]

Isolating s, the equation written in terms of s is:

$s = 12 - 0.5b$

-------------------------

The equation for the length of the third side, as stated in the problem,("Maristella uses the equation b = 24 – 2s to find b, the length of the triangle's third side") is:

$b = 24 - 2s$

To solve for the lengths of the congruent sides, we isolate s, thus:

$b = 24 - 2s$

$2s = 24 - b$

Inverse of multiplication is division, thus:

$s = \frac{24 - b}{2}$

Separating into two fractions:

$s = \frac{24}{2} - \frac{b}{2}$

Solving each fraction:

$s = 12 - 0.5b$

How are percent transmittance and absorbance related algebraically?

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

So, if all the light passes through a solution without any absorption, then absorbance is zero, and percent transmittance is 100%. If all the light is absorbed, then percent transmittance is zero, and absorption is infinite.

Absorbance is the inverse of transmittance so,

A = 1/T

Beer's law (sometimes called the Beer-Lambert law) states that the absorbance is proportional to the path length, b, through the sample and the concentration of the absorbing species, c:

A ∝ b · c

As Transmittance, $T =\dfrac{P}{P_0}$

% Transmittance, $\%T=100\times T$

Absorbance,

$A=\log_{10} \dfrac{P_0}{P}\\\\A =\log_{10}\times \dfrac{1}{T}\\\\A=\dfrac{\log_{10} 100}{\%T}\\\\A=(2 - log_{10})\times \%T$

Hence, $A=\log_{10}\times \dfrac{1}{T}$ is the algebraic relation between absorbance and transmittance.
