Answer:

  2x -3y = -19

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the differences between the given points, we have ...

  (Δx, Δy) = (4, 9) -(-2, 5) = (6, 4)

The equation of the line can be written ...

  Δy·x -Δx·y = Δy·(x1) -Δx·(y1) . . . . . for point (x1, y1) on the line

  4x -6y = 4(-2) -6(5) = -38

Dividing by 2 gives the standard form equation ...

  2x -3y = -19

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The original equation 4x-6y=-38 satisfies the requirements of this problem. However, "standard form" requires the numbers in the equation be mutually prime (in addition to the problem requirements). That is, they must have no common factors. Hence, we must remove the common factor of 2 in order to have true "standard form."

Point P is the center of the circle below. What is the exact area
Ber [7]

Answer:

192π unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Radius = 24

Area of circle = πr²

Area = π*24²

Area = 576π in²

The Shaded area is 120°

Entire Circumference = 360°

Hence, shaded area = 120°/ 360° = 1/ 3 of the area

1/3 * 576π in²

= 192π unit²

There were 178 old cars at the junkyard. Then a truck brought in some more cars. Now there are a total of 236 cars in the junkya
crimeas [40]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is 58 cars.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Cars in the junkyard before the truck arrived with some = 178

Cars after the truck brought into the junkyard some more= 236

Cars brought in by the truck = 236 - 178

Cars brought into the junkyard by the truck = 58

<u>The number of cars brought by the truck is 58 cars.</u>

In the triangle below, 4/5 represents which ratio?
ASHA 777 [7]
<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
sin (C)

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>In a right-angled triangle, special trig functions can be applied. These functions are as follows:</u>
sin (theta) = </span>\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
<span>
cos (theta) = </span>\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}
<span>
tan (theta) = </span>\frac{opposite}{adjacent}<span>

<u>Now, let's check the triangle we have:</u>
<u>We have two options:</u>
<u>First option:</u>
5 is the hypotenuse of the triangle
4 is the side adjacent to angle B
Therefore, we can apply the <u>cos function</u>:
cos (B) = </span>\frac{4}{5}<span>

<u>Second option:</u>
5 is the hypotenuse of the triangle
4 is the side opposite to angle C
Therefore, we can apply the <u>sin function</u>:
sin (C) = </span>\frac{4}{5}
<span>
Among the two options, the second one is the one found in the choices. Therefore, it will be the correct one.

Hope this helps :)
