Answer:

The equation in point-slope form is y-6=2(x-4).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the slope and a coordinate pair of a line.

  • Slope: 2
  • Coordinate Pair (x, y): (4, 6)

Therefore, we can now label our coordinate pair and substitute our values into the formula. Our formula is:

\displaystyle y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

We can label our coordinate pairs with the (x_1, y_1) labeling method.

Therefore, since our two coordinates are:

  • x = 4
  • y = 6

We can label 4 as x₁ and 6 as y₁.

Then, we are able to determine <em>m</em>, or our slope.

  • m = 2

Now, let's set up our equation.

\displaystyle y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - 6 = 2(x - 4)\\\\y - 6 = 2x - 8\\\\y = 2x - 2

Therefore, our line is y = 2x - 2. However, the problem asks for it in point-slope form. So, this is exactly what we have in Step 2: y - 6 = 2(x - 4).

The cone has a height of 9 in and a diameter of 6 in. Find the volume of the popcorn container. Use 3.14 for π
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The volume of the popcorn container is V=84.78\ in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the cone is equal to

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

where

r is the radius of the base of cone

h is the height of the cone

In this problem we have

r=6/2=3\ in ----> the radius is half the diameter

h=9\ in

\pi =3.14

substitute the values

V=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(3)^{2}(9)

V=84.78\ in^3

Help! Which estimate is closest to the actual value of ( 2.99548 ) ⋅ ( 1.8342 )?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2.99548 * 1.8342

the first number rounds to 3.....the second number rounds to 2.....3 * 2 = 6...but it will be a little short of 6 because of the 1.8.....so I am going with 5.5

===============================

jada ran 7.1 miles.....noah ran 5.123 miles

so jada ran (7.1 - 5.123) = 1.977 miles farther then noah

===============================

greater then 3...

1.67 + 1.4 and 4.5 - 1.47
