Answer:

y = 1/3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation for slope intercept form is y= mx + b.

m is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis which is called the y-intercept.

to find the y-intercept plug in a coordinate on the line (6,0)

0 = 1/3(6) + b

then solve for b by first multiplying 1/3 by 6

0 = 2 + b

subtract 2 from both sides

-2 = b

and then you can plug b into the equation

y = 1/3x - 2

The coordinates below represent two linear equations.

vovikov84 [41]

First write the equations in the slope-intercept form:
$y=mx+b \\ \\
m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Line 1 passes through the points (-6,-6) and (-4,-3).
$m=\frac{-3-(-6)}{-4-(-6)}=\frac{-3+6}{-4+6}=\frac{3}{2} \\ \\
(-6,-6) \to x=-6, \ y=-6 \\
-6=\frac{3}{2} \times (-6) + b \\
-6=-9+b \\
b=3 \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{2}x+3$

Line 2 passes through the points (0,3) and (2,6).
$m=\frac{6-3}{2-0}=\frac{3}{2} \\ \\
(0,3) \to x=0, \ y=3 \\
3=\frac{3}{2} \times 0 + b \\
b=3 \\ \\
y=\frac{3}{2}x+3$

These are two identical lines so the system of equations has infinitely many solutions. The answer is D.

PLEASE HELP!!!

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Area of the other polygon = 4 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the bigger polygon : Area of the smaller polygon = square of the side length of the bigger polygon : square of the corresponding side length of the smaller polygon

Let "x" represent the area of the smaller polygon

Thus, we have:

100/x = 20²/4²

100/x = 400/16

100/x = 25

Cross multiply

25x = 100

Divide both sides by 25

25x/25 = 100/25

x = 4

Area of the other polygon = 4 in.²

Help me find the volume please

Elena L [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a pyramid:

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}BH$

B - area of a base

H - height

We have the square in the base with side length a = 11 in.

Area of a base:

$B=11^2=121\ in^2$

Calculate the volume:

$V=\dfrac{1}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}(121)(15\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^5)=(1)(121)(5)=605\ in^3$
