Answer:

  y -1 = 5/6(x +8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope equation of a line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line through point (h, k) with slope m

For point (-8, 1) and slope 5/6, the equation is ...

  y -1 = 5/6(x +8)

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you want a line with slope -3/4 through the same point, change 5/6 to -3/4:

  y -1 = -3/4(x +8)

Amare wants to ride a Ferris wheel that sits four meters above and has a diameter of 50 meters. It takes 6 minutes to do three r
Veseljchak [2.6K]
To answer this question, we begin to transform the speed of revolutions per minute in radians per minute.
 They tell us that the speed of the wheel is 3 turns in 6 minutes.
 So:
 1 revolution = 2π
 (2π / 1 turn) * (3 turns / 6min) = 6π/ 6min = 1π / min.
 The wheel turns π or 180 ° in one minute.
 We already have the angular velocity w.
 We know that the lowest point of the wheel is 4 meters above the ground and that it returns to the same point every 2π
 Therefore, the function sought is periodic and must be equal to 4 for allvalues ​​of time k, where k is an even number 2, 4, 6, 8, .., k

 Then the function must have the form rsin(wt) where "t" is the elapsed time, "w" is the previously calculated angular velocity, and "r" is the radius of the wheel.
 The minimum value of the function must be 4 and the maximum value 54.
 Therefore, the function is:

  h (t) = 4 + 25 + 25sin (π×t + 3π / 2)
 Where 3π/ 2 is the phase angle, which indicates that the movement starts at the instant t = 0 at the lowest point of the wheel that equals 3π / 2.
 You can verify the answer in the following way:

 After 1 minute, the wheel should have rotated 180 ° or π. Therefore, the person must be at the highest point of the wheel and his height must be 54 m.
 When you replace t = 1 in the formula, you get h = 54m
 After 2 minutes, the wheel should have rotated 360 ° or 2π. Therefore, the person must be at the starting point and their height must be 4 m.
 By replacing t = 2 in the formula you will get h = 4m
 After 0.5 minutes, the wheel should have rotated 90 ° or π / 2. Therefore, the person must be in the right half of the wheel and his height must be 29 m.
 When replacing t = 0.5 in the formula you will get h = 29m

Laurent invested some money in a bank account.
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

1.04

Step-by-step explanation:

"Complete the following sentence about the yearly rate of change in the amount of money in the account.  Round your answer to two decimal places.

Every year, the amount of money in the account increases by a factor of _."

Mdecade(t) = 4900 (1.5)^t, where t is in decades.

One year is 0.1 decades, so M increases by a factor of:

1.5^0.1 = 1.04

When X equals eight, Y equals 20 find Y when x equals 42
gavmur [86]
Y is equal to 105 because you divide 42 by 8 and get 5.25 (the amount it increased). then you multiply by its previous version 20 to get 105.
