Line passing through (0, 9) , (8, 7)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aneli [31]2 years ago
5 0

<u>We are given:</u>

The 2 points through which the line passes through

(0,9) and (8,7)

__________________________________________________________

<u>Finding the equation of the line:</u>

To find the equation of the line, we will use the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b           [where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept]

So, we need the slope and the y-intercept of the line in order to find the equation

<u>Finding the slope:</u>

We know that the slope of a line is:  change in y / change in x

So, Slope = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1}}

replacing the variables:

Slope = (7-9) / (8-0)

Slope =  -2 / 8

Slope = -1/4

<u>Finding the y-intercept:</u>

Since we know the slope, we know that the equation of the line will look like:

y=  (-1/4)x + b              [where b is the y-intercept]

we know that the ordered pair (0,9) will satisfy the equation since the line passes through that point

So, y = 9 and x = 0 will satisfy the equation:

9 = (-1/4)(0) + b

b = 9

Hence, the y-intercept is 9

<u>Equation of the line:</u>

We know that the general form of the slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b                [where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept]

Since we know the values of the slope and the y-intercept:

y = (-1/4)x + 9

y = -x/4 + 9 is the equation of the line that passes through the given points

Two circles with different radii have chords AB and CD, such that AB is congruent to CD. Are the arcs intersected by these chord
emmainna [20.7K]

The arcs intersected by these chords are not congruent.

Given that two circles with different radii have chords AB and CD, such that AB is congruent to CD.

Let r₁ and r₂ be the radii of two different circles with centers O and O' respectively.

Assuming that the each of the ∠АОВ  and ∠CO'D is less than or equal to π.

Then, we have isosceles triangle AOB and CO'D such that,

AO = OB = r₁,

CO' = O'D = r₂,

Let us assume that r₁< r₂;

We can see that arc(AB) intersected by AB is greater than arc(CD), intersected by the chord CD;

arc(AB) > arc(CD)      .......(1)

Indeed,

arc(AB) = r₁ angle (AOB)

arc(CD) = r₂ angle (CO'D)

So, we have to prove that ;

∠AOB >∠CO'D       ......(2)

Since each angle is less than or equal to π, and so

∠AOB/2  and ∠CO'D/2 is less than or equal to π

it suffices to show that :

tan(AOB/2) >tan(CO'D/2) ......(3)

From triangle AOB :

tan(AOB/2) = AB/(2*r₁)

tan(CO'D/2) = CD/(2*r₂)

Since AB = CD and r₁ < r₂ (As obtained from the result of (3) ), therefore, arc(AB) > arc(CD).

Hence, for two circles with different radii have chords AB and CD, such that AB is congruent to CD but the arcs intersected by these chords are not congruent.

Find the result when 90 is decreased by 35%.<br> 58.5<br> 75.6<br> 60.5<br> 78.5
avanturin [10]
In this question, it's asking you to find the number when 90 is subtracted by 35%. So, you find 35% of 90 which is 31.5 and you minus it from 90 = 58.5.

> 90 x 35% = 31.5
> 90 - 31.5 = 58.5

Please help. I have no idea how to do this. Find the measure of
vagabundo [1.1K]

m∠A = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AB =AC and  m∠B = 70

Since AB =AC , Triangle ABC is an isosceles Triangle and the corresponding angles B and C are equal.

So m∠B = m∠C = 70

The sum of the 3 Angles of a triangle is 180°.

=> m∠A  + m∠B + m∠C = 180

=> 140 + m∠C = 180

=> m∠C = 40

Hence the answer is  m∠C = 40

200z + 50 = 8000 solve this problem
kramer

Answer:

39.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 50 from both sides

200z + 50 - 50 = 8000 - 50

200z = 7950

Then isolate the variable by dividing both sides by 200

200z/200 = 7950/200

z=39.75
