Answer:

y-intercept = (0, - 3)

x-intercept = (-6, 0)

slope = - 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The y intercept is the value of y when the x = 0. By looking at the graph, we can tell that when x = 0, y = - 3. Likewise for the x-intercept.

We can use the slope formula to determine the slope.

m = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

You can choose any 2 points on the line and substitute in the formula. I chose the y and x intercepts for easier calculations.

m = - 3 - 0/ 0 - (- 6)

m = - 3/ 6

m = - 1/2

About 150,000 people live in a circular region with a population density of about

morpeh [17]

Area of a circle = pi x r^2

Area of circle = 150,000/ 1578 = 95.06 square miles

95.06 = 3.14 x r ^2

Divide both sides by 3.14

R^2 = 30.27

Find the square root:

R = sqrt(30.27)

R = 5.5

The radius is c) 5.5 miles

oel biked 9 miles east and then 12 miles north. If he biked back to his starting point using the most direct route, how many mil

kvasek [131]

Answer:

36 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

(Imagine a huge triangle on a perfectly open space-- not with streets or houses or cornfields.)

The dimensions of the two sides given are multiples of a classic Pythagorean Triple: 3, 4, 5. $3^{2} + 4^{2} = 5^{2}$

9 is 3x3, 12 is 3x4 so the remaining side would be 3x5 15

Add those 3 sides to get the total distance, 36 miles.

X<br> f(x) =<br> x2 + 4x<br> .<br> x2_4

PtichkaEL [24]

The answer is 1/(x+4)
Explanation:
You would factor out the denominator
So,
(X-4)(x+4)=x^2-16
So, x-4/(x+4)(x-4)
Then x-4 cancels each other out from the numerator and denominator
Leaving 1/x+4
