So, using our given information, we have a line of the equation

, or

. Plugging in our value 9 for

, we get

.
j=3
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution choices all agree that x = 1±√2. The second equation tells you ...
y = ±2√(x+2)
so the sign of the √2 term in x is the same as the sign of the √2 term in y. The answer choices circled in red are the ones that meet this requirement.
2 3/4a=19 1/4
÷2 3/4 ÷2 3/4
a=1/7
The corresponding sides of the model and the actual bridge are in proportion because the two solids are similar.
The scale factor from the model to the actual bridge is 5/25 = 6/30 = 8/40 = 1/5.
Answer: 1/5
<u>Answer</u>
B(18/5,0)
<u>Explanation</u>
First we find the coordinates of C;
C (x, y) = [(-3+7)/2, (2+6)/2]
= (2, 4)
Find the equation of CD.
slope = (6-2)/(7--3)
= 4/10 = 2/5
slope of CD = -5/2
-5/2 = (y - 4)/(x - 2)
-5/2(x - 2) = y - 4
(-5/2) x + 5 = y - 4
y = (-5/2)x + 9
For the x-intercept y = 0
∴ y = (-5/2)x + 9
0 = (-5/2)x + 9
5/2 x = 9
x = 2/5 × 9
= 18/5
x-intercept = (18/5, 0)
