Write an equation of the line in slope -intercept form ( due today!)

Which graph best represents -5y = -6x + 15

frutty [35]

Answer: Option c.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Given the equation:

$-5y = -6x + 15$

Solve for "y" in order to write in Slope-Intercept form:

$y = \frac{-6}{-5}x + \frac{15}{-5}\\\\y = \frac{6}{5}x -3$

Now you can identify that that the slope and the y-intercept are:

$m=\frac{6}{5}\\\\b=-3$

A posive slope means that the the line moves upward from left to right.

With this information, you can conclude that the the graph that best represents the given equation is the graph shown in the Option c.

If RY=7x+4, YC=10x-2, then what is the value of RC?

irina1246 [14]

If RY + YC = RC
7x+4=10x-2
3x=6
x=2
18+18=36=RC
The value of RC is 36

show that thw roots of the equation (x-a)(x_b)=k^2 are always real if a,b and k are real. Please I really need help with this

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the value of the discriminant

Δ = b² - 4ac

• If b² - 4ac > 0 then roots are real

• If b² - 4ac = 0 roots are real and equal

• If b² - 4ac < 0 then roots are not real

given (x - a)(x - b) = k² ( expand factors )

x² - bx - ax - k² = 0 ( in standard form )

x² + x(- a - b) - k² = 0

with a = 1, b = (- a - b), c = -k²

b² - 4ac = (- a - b)² + 4k²

For a, b, k ∈ R then (- a - b)² ≥ 0 and 4k² ≥ 0

Hence roots of the equation are always real for a, b, k ∈ R

Chase is building a birdhouse in the shape of a regular polygon. He knows that the measure of the interior angle is twice the me

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The perimeter of the base of the birdhouse is 36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

Chase is building a birdhouse in the shape of a regular polygon. He knows that the measure of the interior angle is twice the measure of the exterior angle and the length of a diagonal that passes through the center is 12. What is the perimeter of the base of the birdhouse?

step 1

Find the measure of the interior angle

Let

x ---> the measure of the interior angle

y ---> the measure of the exterior angle

Remember that

the sum of the interior and exterior angle in any polygon is equal to 180 degrees

so

$x+y=180^o$ ----> equation A
