Answer:

(2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

For given line AB:

y-intercept = b = -2

slope = m = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

= -3/2-(-4) = -3/6 = -1/2

Equation of line AB:

y = (-1/2)x - 2

Finding equation of line that is parallel to line AB and passes through the point C(2,2):

Substituting the slope from line AB into the equation of the line

y = (-1/2)x + b.

Substituting the given point (-2,2) into the x and y values 2 = (-1/2)-2 + b.

Solving for b (the y-intercept) , we get b = 1

Substitute this value for 'b' in the slope intercept form equation y = (-1/2)x + 1.

For x-intercept of the line, we let y = 0

0 = (-1/2)x + 1

x = -1(-2/1)

x = +2

So, the point on the x-axis that lies on the line that passes

through point C and is parallel to line AB is (2,0).

If time is four hours from now, the time left till midnight would be quarter that if it is one hour from now. What time is it no

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The time now is 7 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that now is the time T.

We know that:

"if time is four hours from now, the time left till midnight would be a quarter that if it is one hour from now".

Then:

if we define midnight as 12, and we assume that T is in the pm range.

Then the "time left till midnigth, assuming that the time is four hours from now" will be written as (12 - (T + 4))

With this in mind, we can write the problem as:

12 - (T + 4) = (1/4)*( 12 - (T + 1))

Now we can solve this for T.

12 - T - 4 = (1/4)*(12 - T - 1)

8 - T = (1/4)*(11 - T)

4*(8 - T) = 11 - T

32 - 4*T = 11 - T

32 - 11 = -T + 4*T

21 = 3*T

21/3 = T

7 = T

Then T = 7 pm

The time now is 7 pm

Carissa also has a sink that is shaped like a half sphere. The sink has a volume of 4000/ 3 * π in 3. One day, her sink clogged.

givi [52]

Answer:

Part a) 119 cups

Part b) 30 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

step 1

Find the volume of the conical cup with a diameter of 4 in. and a height of 8 in

The volume of the cone (cup) is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

we have

$r=4/2=2\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$h=8\ in$

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(2^{2})8=33.49\ in^3$

step 2

Find out how many cups of water must Carissa scoop out of the sink

Divide the volume of the sink by the volume of the cup

$\frac{4,000}{33.49}= 119\ cups$

Part b)

step 1

Find the volume of the conical cup with a diameter of 8 in. and a height of 8 in

The volume of the cone (cup) is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

we have

$r=8/2=4\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$h=8\ in$

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(4^{2})8=133.97\ in^3$

step 2

Find out how many cups of water must Carissa scoop out of the sink

Divide the volume of the sink by the volume of the cup

$\frac{4,000}{133.97}= 30\ cups$

3.006 rounded to the nearest tenth

Ann [662]

3.006 rounded to the nearest tenth is 3.0. This is due to the fact that the 6 rounded up will mean that the current 0 becomes 1, but this will not be carried to the tenth when rounding up.

The length of a rectangle is represented by L. If the width of the rectangle is one-half of its length, represent its width.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

L/2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the width is half of its length, that means it is 1/2*L, as L is the length. This can be simplified into L/2, which is our answer.
