Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard equation of a line is y = mx+c
m is the slope
c is the intercept
Given
Slope = -3
Get the intercept c;
Substitute m = -3 and (1, -9) into y = mx+c
-9 = -3(1) + c
-9 = -3 + c
c = -9 + 3
c = -6
The equation becomes
y = -3x + (-6)
y = -3x-6
f(x) = -3x-6
The zero of f occurs at f(x) = 0
0 = -3x-6
3x = -6
x = -6/3
x = -2
Hence the zero of the function is -2
Answer:
the "acceleration" is -15m/s (it's negative because it is slowing down, not speeding up[it might just be a positive 15m/s if it is called deceleration and not acceleration])
Step-by-step explanation:
30m/s (starting speed)/2 (the number of seconds it took to stop from 30m/s
There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.
It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.
Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle
base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)
Plug in the numbers
x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5
The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm
