Answer:
k = -3 or 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The line extends from points (-1, 1) to point (2, k)
The length of the line = 5 units
The formula for the length, l, of a line given its coordinates can be found by the following formula;
Therefore, we have;
Which, by squaring both sides, gives;
25 = (k - 1)² + (2 - (-1))² = (k - 1)² + (2 + 1)² = (k - 1)² + 3²
25 = (k - 1)² + 3² = k² - 2·k + 1 + 9
25 - 25 = 0 = k² - 2·k + 1 + 9 - 25 = k² - 2·k - 15
0 = k² - 2·k - 15
0 = (k +3) × (k - 5)
Therefore, k = -3 or 5
When k - -3, we have;
When k = 5, we have;
Go-rite: 12.75 / 3 = 4.25 (go-rite is $4.25 per pound)
Green zone: $4.50
4.50- 4.25= 0.25
Go-rite is cheaper by .25
Answer:
y = -2x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The point slope form of an equation is written as
y = mx + c ...............(i)
Where m is the slope and c is the constant
Now we Know that the equation is
y + 2 = -2(x-5)
and the given points are
m= -2
x = 5
and y= -2
Putting these values in equation (i) to find the value of c
y = mx + c
it becomes
-2 = -2(5) + c
-2 = -10 + c
Adding 10 on both sides
-2 + 10 = -10 + 10 + c
8 = c
or c=8
Now we have the values of m and c
where m= -2 and c = 8
Point slope form of an equation is
y = mx + c
putting the values of m and c to get equation in slope intercept form is
y = (-2)x + 8
or
y = -2x + 8
Other method:
The given point slope form is
y + 2 = -2(x-5)
We have to change it in y= mx + c form
so solving it
y + 2 = -2x + 10
Subtracting 2 from both sides
y + 2 -2 = -2x + 10 -2
y = -2x + 8
which is same is
y=mx + c
so the required equation is
y = -2x + 8
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 7.7^2 equals 60,
To round to the nearest tenth - look at the number to the right of the tenth value ( the hundredth) and follow the rule
<em>5 or more round up, 4 or less round down
</em>As 1 is lower than 4, we round down.
36.11 therefore rounds down to 36.1
