Answer:

The line y = -4x - 5 shows the reflection over the y-axis.

From the attached graph, the blue line i.e. y = -4x-5 represents the reflection over the y-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we reflect a line function over the y-axis, all we need is to negate the x-coordinate or value of 'x', while y-coordinate or y-value remains the same.

Given the function

y = 4x-5

replace x with -x

y = 4(-x) - 5

y = -4x - 5

Thus, the line y = -4x - 5 shows the reflection over the y-axis.

From the attached graph, the blue line i.e. y = -4x-5 represents the reflection over the y-axis.

From the graph, it is clear that that that x-coordinate of y = 4x-5 is negated.

Ok guys i have only 1 hr to get this. Determine the y-intercept for the equation 3x + 2y = 12. HELP

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

x= -2/3 y+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

3x+2y=12

Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.

3x+2y+−2y=12+−2y

3x=−2y+12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

−2y+12

Geometry Pythagorean theorem

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Below!

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem, I will solve all of the problems.

<u>Question 9:</u>

10² = 6² + x²
=> 100 = 36 + x²
=> 100 - 36 = x²
=> 64 = x²
=> x = 8

<u>Question 10:</u>

26² = 24² + x²
=> 676 = 576 + x²
=> 676 - 576 = x²
=> 100 = x²
=> x = 10

<u>Question 11:</u>

15² = 12² + x²
=> 225 = 144 + x²
=> 225 - 144 = x²
=> 81 = x²
=> x = 9

<u>Question 12:</u>

x² = 8² + 12²
=> x² = 64 + 144
=> x² = 208
=> x = √208
=> x = 14.2 (Rounded)

<u>Question 13:</u>

7² = 2² + x²
=> 49 = 4 + x²
=> 49 - 4 = x²
=> 45 = x²
=> x = √45
=> x = 6.7 (Rounded)

<u>Question 14</u>

First, let's solve for the variable x using Pythagoras theorem.

=> 5² = 3² + x²
=> 25 = 9 + x²
=> 16 = x²
=> x = 4 units

Now, let's solve for the variable y using Pythagoras theorem.

(3 + 6)² = 5² + y²
=> (9)² = 25 + y²
=> 81 = 25 + y²
=> y² = 56
=> y = √56
=> y = 7.5 (Rounded) units

Answers (Nearest tenth):

x = 4 units
y = 7.5 units

<u>Question 15:</u>

First, let's find the value of the variable y using Pythagoras theorem.

8² = 6² + y²
=> 64 = 36 + y²
=> 28 = y²
=> y = √28
=> y = 5.3 (Rounded) units

Now, let's find the value of the variable x using multiplication.

x = 2y
=> x = 2(5.3)
=> x = 10.6 units

Answer (Nearest tenth)

x = 10.6 units
y = 5.3 units

An rectangular water tank has a base area of 56 sq. ft. and a height of 4 ft. Find its volume in cubic feet.

ira [324]

Answer: 224 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation: If the base of the tank is 56 sq feet in<u> area </u> then the dimensions could be, (2,28) (4,14) (7,8) for example. However, it doesn't really matter. It's only important that the information we know is that it is area and there are two dimensions. Since volume is determined by base x width x height, we do 56 x 4. Or using one of the factored pairs that works, for example, 8 x 7 x 4 = 224.
