Answer:
0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the points :
(0, 4) and (-8, -1)
x1 = 0 ; y1 = 4
x2 = - 8 ; y2 = - 1
Slope, m = rise / run
Rise = y2 - y1 = - 1 - 4 = - 5
Rise = x2 - x1 = - 8 - 0 = - 8
The slope, m = - 5 / - 8
Slope, m = 0.625
If you have at least as many equations as your have unknown variables, the 'system' is solvable (unless the equations are copies of eachother).
In this case, isolate one letter and plug it in the other. I'm going for the 2a in the bottom one (it doesn't matter)
2a - 4b = 12 => (divide by two and move the b's to the other side)
a = 6 + 2b. (plug this one into the top equation)
4(6+2b) + 6b = 10 => 24+8b+6b = 10 => 24 + 14b = 10 => 14b = -14 => b=-1
a = 6 + -2 = 4.
So a=4 and b=-1.
The wire, the pole and the segment joining the leg of the pole to the wire in the ground form a right triangle whose hypotenuse is the wire, and the side opposite to the angle 36° is the pole.
By right triangle trigonometry, sin36°=(opposite side)/(hypotenuse.)
Substituting, we have 0.588=(opposite side)/220, thus the length of the opposite side, which represents the length of the pole, is
0.588*220 ft=129.3 ft
Answer:
Red: 1/5 or 0.2 or 20% (depends if the question asked you to give the answer in fraction/decimal/percentage. Either way, it's still correct)
Black: 0
Blue: 2/5 or 0.4 or 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
In total, the bag contains 10 balls,
- There are no black marbles so you have 0 chance of pulling them out.
Answer:
n = 19/18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
11/6 = n + 7/9
Find n
11/6 = n + 7/9
Subtract 7/9 from both sides of the equation
11/6 - 7/9 = n + 7/9 - 7/9
11/6 - 7/9 = n
(99-42) / 54 = n
n = 57/54
n = 19/18
