Given:

A bird was sitting 16 feet from the base of an oak tree and flew 20 feet to reach the top of the tree.

To find:

The length of the tree.

Solution:

A bird was sitting 16 feet from the base of an oak tree.

Vertical distance between bird and base = 16 feet

Then the bird flew 20 feet to reach the top of the tree.

Now, the vertical distance between bird and base = (16+20) feet

So, length of the oak tree is it the sum of 16 feet and 20 feet.

\text{Length of the oak tree}=16+20 feet

\text{Length of the oak tree}=36 feet

Therefore, the length of the oak tree is 36 feet.

Find the equation of this line. y= [?]x+[?]
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

y=3x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where <em>m</em> is the slope and <em>b</em> is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0)

<u>1) Determine the slope (</u><u><em>m</em></u><u>)</u>

m=\displaystyle\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} where two points that fall on the line are (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

On the graph, two points are highlighted for us: (0,-4) and (2,2). Plug these into the formula:

m=\displaystyle\frac{2-(-4)}{2-0}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{2+4}{2}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{6}{2}\\\\m=3

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=3x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (</u><u><em>b</em></u><u>)</u>

y=3x+b

Recall that the y-intercept occurs when x=0. Given the point (0,-4), the y-intercept is therefore -4. Plug this into y=3x+b:

y=3x+(-4)\\y=3x-4

I hope this helps!

Mind helping me find the rate of change and y intercept???
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

gradient is 8 and y intercept is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mc+b

take one pair of corridants:

8=1m+b

m=8 (change in y values/changes in x values)

8=1x8+b

do the equation

y=0

Have a nice day!!!!!!!!! :-)

Determine if the triangles, ΔUVW and ΔBAC, are similar. If so, identify the similarity criterion.
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

B). SAS similarity.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Δ WVU & ΔCAB,

UV/CA = 17/34 = 1/2

&

VW/AB = 14/28 = 1/2

∵ UV/CA = VW/AB = 1/2

& ∠V = ∠A (Given)

∵ ΔWVU ≅  ΔCAB   (by SAS similarity)
