Answer:
a. m = 2; y intercept = (0, 4); y = 2 x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope can be found using the formula ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (18 -4)/(7 -0) = 14/7
m = 2
The y-intercept is the first given point: (0, 4).
The equation for the line in slope-intercept form is
y = mx + b
Here, we have m=2 and b=4, so the equation is ...
y = 2x +4
The most appropriate choice for similarity of triangles will be given by -
Speed of tip of the shadow of woman = 6 ft/s
What are similar triangles?
Two triangles are said to be similar, if the corrosponding angles of the triangles are same and the corrosponding sides of the triangles are in the same ratio.
Here,
The diagram has been attached here
Let the distance of woman from the pole be x ft and the distance of tip of the shadow to the pole be y ft.
Height of street light = 18 ft
Height of woman = 6ft
The two triangles are similar [As height of woman is parallel to the height of pole]

To find the speed, we have to differentiate both sides with respect to time 't'

Speed of tip of her shadow = 6 ft

Answer:
DE = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Point D is on line segment CE.
DE = x+10, CD=6 and CE=3x
We need to find the length of DE.
ATQ,
CE = CD + DE
Putting all the values,
3x = 6 + x+10
Taking like terms together
3x-x = 16
2x = 16
x = 8
DE = x+10
= 8+10
= 18
Hence, the length of DE is 18.
Yeah the first one (A) seems like the best to me :)
I think the answer is (4) because if you rotate AEC to the left (counterclockwise) and follow by the scale factor of 2 so, CE = 4x2 = 8 and CA = 3x2 = 6. Hope this help :))
