Answer:

Firstly, you can use the slope and the first point to find a second point:

2 + 1 = x2 and 6 + 5 = y2 because the slope is 5/1.

Next you can write the equation in point-slope form (remember point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1):

y - 11 = 5(x - 3)

Another equation would be B because B is the correct equation if you choose 2 as x2 and 6 as y2.

Hope this helps!

Given two dice, what is the probability of rolling a four on the second die, given that you already rolled a four on the first d

Sholpan [36]

Answer: 1/6

Reason:

There's 1 side labeled "4" out of 6 sides total. So that's where the 1/6 comes from.

The "given that you already rolled a four on the first die" is unneeded info in my opinion, because each die is separate or independent from one another.

Find the value of the variables in the simplest form

STatiana [176]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

tan60° = $\sqrt{3}$

tan60° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{x}{\sqrt{3} }$ = $\sqrt{3}$ ( multiply both sides by $\sqrt{3}$ )

x = 3

Two shapes are shown below, one isosceles triangle and one rectangle. The dimensions can be represented by algebraic expressions

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Perimeter of Isosceles Triangle = 16 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle is given by the formula;

Area = 1/2 × base × height

From the diagram, base = 6x - 6 and height = 6x - 8

Thus,Area = 1/2 × (6x - 6) × (6x - 8)

Area = (3x - 3)(6x - 8) = 18x² - 42x + 24

Secondly, area of rectangle is given by;

Area = length x breadth

So, area of rectangle in question = (6x - 9)(3x - 2) = 18x² - 39x + 18

We are told both the area of the triangle and the rectangle are the same, so let's equate both areas;

18x² - 42x + 24 = 18x² - 39x + 18

18x² will cancel out and rearranging, we have;

24 - 18 = 42x - 39x

6 = 3x

x = 6/3

x = 2

Plugging 2 for x for the height and base of the triangle, we have;

base = 6(2) - 6 and height = 6(2) - 8

Base = 6 and height = 4

So,let's find the slant height of the isosceles triangle.

Dividing the base by 2,we have; 6/2 = 3

So,using Pythagoras theorem, let the slant height be h, so we have;

h² = 3² + 4²

h² = 9 + 16

h² = 25

h = √25

h = 5

2 slant sides of isosceles triangle are the same. So perimeter = 5 + 5 + 6 = 16 units
