Answer:

  y +6 = (-1/3)(x +6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a point and a slope, it is appropriate to use the point-slope form to represent the equation:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

For your point and slope, the equation is ...

  y -(-6) = -1/3(x -(-6))

  y +6 = -1/3(x +6)

__

Of course, this can be rearranged to whatever form you need.

  y = -1/3x -8 . . . . slope-intercept form

  x +3y = -24 . . . . standard form

A circular piece of fabric has a radius of 1.2 ft. The fabric sells for $5.40 per ft². What is the total cost of the circular pi
Kisachek [45]
The answer is $24.41

Step 1. Calculate the area of the <span>circular piece of fabric.
Step 2. Multiply the area of the piece by the price of </span><span>$5.40 per ft² to get the total cost.

Step 1.
The area (A) of the circle with radius r is:
A = </span>π r²
π = 3.14
r = 1.2 ft

A = 3.14 * (1.2 ft)²
A = 3.14 * 1.44 ft²
A = 4.52 ft²

Step 2.
Make a proportion
1 ft² costs $5.40
4.52 ft² cost x

1 ft² : $5.40 = 4.52 ft² : x
x = 4.52 ft² * $5.40 / 1 ft²
x = $24.41

When x2+3x-4 is subtracted from x (x2+3x-2) what is the difference
tankabanditka [31]
I'm assuming this is x^2 + 3x - 4 and x(x^2 + 3x - 2)

1.) First distribute x(x^2 + 3x - 2) to get x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x.

2.) Because you are subtracting all the terms from x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x, it's the same thing as distributing -1 to x^2 + 3x - 4 and then adding it to x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x.

3.) -1(x^2 + 3x - 4) = -x^2 - 3x + 4

4.) Add (x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x) + (-x^2 - 3x + 4)

5.) x^3 + 2x^2 - 5x + 4 is your final answer.

What is the length of a side of a cube with a volume of 729 m3?
Law Incorporation [45]
So, You Need To Find The Length Of One Of The Sides. So, Lets Find It Using The Cubed Method. 10*10*10 = 1000, So It Can't Be 10. 5*5*5 = 125, So It Needs To Be Bigger. 7*7*7 = 343, So Bigger. 8*8*8 = 512, So Bigger. 9*9*9 = 729m^3, So, The Side Length Of The Cube Is 9 Meters. I Hope This Helps!
