find the constant m and b in the linear function f(x)=mx+b so that f(6)=9 and the straight line represents by f has slope -4

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The constant m=-4, and b=33

Step-by-step explanation:

F(x)= MX+b

If f(6)=9 then x=6, m= -4

9= -4(6) + b

9= -24 + b

b= 9 + 24

b= 33

Therefore the constant m, which is the slope is -4 and b which is the intercept is 33

To estimate the height of a totem pole, Jorge uses a small square of plastic. He holds the square up to his eyes and walks backw

Ghella [55]

The height of the pole is 6.50 meters

<h3>How to calculate the height?</h3>

To calculate the height of the pole, we will use of the following equivalent ratios.

By Pythagoras theorem, we have:

$x ^2 = 2^2 + 3^2\\\\x ^2 = 4 + 9\\\\x = \sqrt{13}$

So, we have:

$h = \dfrac{\sqrt{13}^2 }{2} \\\\h = \dfrac{13}{2}\\\\h = 6.5$

Hence, the height of the pole is 6.50 meters

Can anyone help me as soon as possible??

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ AED and Δ ACB are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{ED}{CB}$ = $\frac{AD}{AB}$ , substitute values

$\frac{11}{8}$ = $\frac{6+x}{x}$ ( cross- multiply )

11x = 8(6 + x) ← distribute

11x = 48 + 8x ( subtract 8x from both sides )

3x = 48 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 16
