We have:
The generic equation of the line is: y-yo = m (x-xo)
The slope is:
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
m = (- 2-0) / (3-0)
m = -2 / 3
We choose an ordered pair
(xo, yo) = (0, 0)
Substituting values:
y-0 = (- 2/3) (x-0)
Rewriting:
y = (- 2/3) x
Answer:
The equation of the line is:
y = (- 2/3) x
Yes!
explanation:
8 divided by 4 equals 2 and 20 divided by 4 is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to convert each number to improper fractions.
Next you have to multiply denominator to denominator, and fraction to fraction.
Then simplify your final answer to the lowest form possible.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = x
width = x - 7
height = x - 10
volume = 600 in^3
Volume = L * w * h
600 = x * (x - 7)*(x - 10)
600 = x * (x^2 - 17x + 70)
600 = x^3 - 17x^2 + 70x
x^3 - 17x^2 + 70x - 600 = 0
There is a genius somewhere that could solve this using algebra. The rest of us have 2 choices. We can graph it (see below) or we could use a program that solves it for us. I'll do both for you.
a = 1
b = - 17
c = 70
d = - 600
There is only 1 real solution: x = 15
L = 15
w = 8
h = 5
That has to be one of the ugliest graphs made. It does into the hundreds of thousands and it still looks like a straight line. Trust me. It's not.
