Answer:

y = (-3)\, x + 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires that the equation should be in the slope-intercept form y = m \, x + c. The m and c in this equation are constants. In particular:

  • m\! would represent the slope of this line (also known as the gradient of this line,) whereas
  • c would be the y-intercept of this line.

The question states that the slope of this line is (-3). Therefore, m = -3. Thus, the equation for this line should be in the form y = (-3)\, x + c.

The value of constant c could be found using the other piece of information: the point (3,\, 1) is in this line. In other words, the solution \text{$x = 3$ and $y = 1$} should satisfy the equation y = (-3)\, x + c.

Substitute \text{$x = 3$ and $y = 1$} into the equation y = (-3)\, x + c and solve for c:

1 = (-3) \times 3 + c.

1 = -9 + c.

c = 10.

Hence, y = (-3) \, x + 10 would be the slope-intercept form of the equation of this line.

Answer:

80 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

one half of the circle makes a straight line and that will equal 180 degrees so 60+45=105

180-105=80

so the missing angle is x=80

An in ground rectangular pool has a concrete pathway surrounding the pool. if the pool is 16 feet by 32 feet and the entire area
Anastasy [175]
1. Let's call:
 
 x: the width of the walkway.
 b: 2x+16 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
 h: 2x+32  (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
 A: 924 ft^2 ( the area of the pool of including the walkway).
 
 2. The area of a rectangle is:  
 
 A=(b)(h)
 
 b: the base of the rectangle (2x+16)
 a: the height of the rectangle (2x+32)

 3. Then, we have a quadratic equation:
 
 924=(2x+16)(2x+32)
 4x^2+64x+32x+512-924=0
 4x^2+96x-412=0
 
 4. We apply the quadratic formula to find the value of "x":
 
 x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
 
 x=3.71
 
 The answer is: The width of the walkway is 3.71 ft
