This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

For what value of a is the volume of the tetrahedron formed by the coordinate planes and the plane (x/a) + (y/10) + (z/6) = 1 equal to 10?

Answer: the value of a is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Volume of tetrahedron bounded by plane (x/a) + (y/10) + (z/6) = 1

and coordinate plane is; V = 1/6|abc|

(x/a) + (y/10) + (z/6) = 1

volume = 10

so

10 = 1/6 | a × 10 × 6 |

60 = a × 10 × 6

60 = 60a

a = 60 / 60

a = 1

Therefore the value of a is 1

The hard drive on your computer has a capacity of 160 gigabytes (GB). You have used 122 GB. You want to save some home videos to
QveST [7]

Capacity of the hard drive = 160 GB.

Used space = 122 GB.

Free space = 160 - 122 = 38 GB.

So, the size of the home video collection should be less than or equal to 38 GB.

If u is the amount of space used, then, u ≤ 38

If a is the amount of space available, then a = 38 - u.

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that one of the cards is red a
alukav5142 [94]
Total cards = 52
Total red cards = 26
Total black cards = 26

P(one red and one black) = P(red and then black)+ P(black and then red)
P(one red and one black) =(26/52)(26/51) + (26/52)(26/51)
P(one red and one black) = 26/51 (Answer A)

What is the equation of the line in the graph
iren [92.7K]

Always, ALWAYS remeber this format: y = mx + b

In this equation, 'm' is the slope, and 'b' is the y-intercept

When you're trying to find a slope, remember that the equation is \frac{rise}{run}

When finding the rise and run, look at two points that are on the graph AND on the line as well. Essentially, make sure the points you're using are integers.

In this, case, the rise is -3, and the run is 2. This means that the slope is  \frac{-3}{2}

Now we have the first part of our equation:

y = - \frac{3}{2} + b

But wait! How do we find b?

Sometimes you have to input x in order to find it, but only when you're not supplied with a graph. In this case, all you have to do is look!

The point of the line that is on the y-axis is called the y-intercept.

In this graph, the y-intercept is -1

Now we have our complete equation!

y = - \frac{3}{2} - 1

Good luck!
