Find an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has slope –8 and passes through point (1,5)

1 answer:

5 0

Using the equation of the line
y -yo = m (x-xo)

We substitute xo,yo and the slope

y -5 = -8(x-1) .....> y = -8x +8 +5 = -8x +13

y = -8x +13

Explain why the two figures below are similar. Use complete sentences and provide evidence to support your explanation. (10 poin

alekssr [168]

Answer:

<em>The two figures are similar as the ratio of corresponding distances and slope of corresponding lines are EQUAL.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Noting the coordinates of points,

C(-1,6), D(3,4) , E(2,3) , F(3,0), G(1,-2) , A(0,1) , B(-2,2)

J(4.5,3.5), K(6.5,2.5), L(6,2), M(6.5,0.5) , N(5.5,-0.5) , H(5,1) , I(4,1.5)

using the distance formula = $\sqrt{(x-x1)^{2} + (y-y1)^{2} }$

we find that,

CD= $\sqrt{20}$ and JK= $\sqrt{5}$

thus, ratio of CD to JK is 2.

Similarly find ratio of DE to KL and so on, the ratio remains same.

Further one can even comment on the slopes of corresponding lines been equal.

Thus the figures turn out to be similiar to each other

The diagram shows a sector of a circle radius 10 cm. the angle is 135 degrees

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The perimeter is 43.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the perimeter of the sector.

Firstly, we define what a sector is. A sector is part of a circle which is is blinded by two radii and an arc. Hence we say a sector contains two radii.

Thus, to calculate the perimeter of the sector, we need the length of the arc added to 2 * length of the radius

Let’s calculate the length of the arc.

Mathematically, this is theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

where theta is the angle subtended at the middle of the circle which is 135 according to the question, and our radius is 10cm

Thus, we have

135/360 * 2 * 22/7 * 10 = 23.57 cm

Adding two radii to this, we have;

23.57 + 2(10)

= 23.57 + 20 = 43.57 = 43.6 cm to 1 decimal place

The probability distribution of the amount of memory X (GB) in a purchased flash drive is given below. x 1 2 4 8 16 p(x) .05 .10

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

a) $E(X) = 6.45$

b) $E(X^{2} )= 57.25$

c) $V(X) = 15.648$

d) E(3X + 2) = 21.35

e) $E(3X^{2} +2) = 173.75$

f) V(3X+2) = 140.832

g) E(X+1) = 7.45

h) V(X+1) = 15.648

Step-by-step explanation:

a) $E(X) = \sum xP(x)$

$E(X) = (1*0.05) + (2*0.10) + (4*0.35) + (8*0.40) + (16*0.10)\\E(X) = 6.45$

$E(X^{2} ) = (1^{2} *0.05) + (2^{2} *0.10) + (4^{2} *0.35) + (8^{2} *0.40) + (16^{2} *0.10)\\ E(X^{2} )= 57.25$

$V(X) = E(X^{2} ) - (E(X))^{2} \\V(X) = 57.25 - 6.45^{2} \\V(X) = 15.648$

$E(3X+2) = 3E(X) + 2\\E(3X+2) = (3*6.45) + 2 \\E(3X+2) = 21.35$

$E(3X^{2} +2) = 3E(X^{2} ) + 2\\E(3X^{2} +2) = (3*57.25) + 2 \\E(3X^{2} +2) = 173.75$

$V(3X+2) = 3^{2} V(X)\\V(3X+2) = 9*15.648\\V(3X+2) = 140.832$

$E(X+1) = E(X) + 1\\E(X+1) = 6.45 + 1\\E(X+1) =7.45$

$V(X+1) = 1^{2} V(X)\\V(X+1) = 15.648$
