Answer:

  f(x) = -1/3x +23/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the linear regression function of a graphing calculator or spreadsheet to show you the equation of the line through these points:

  f(x) = -1/3x +23/3

__

Approaching this in the usual way, we recognize we have points ...

  (-1, 8) and (5, 6)

The slope of the line through those points is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (6 -8)/(5 -(-1)) = -2/6 = -1/3

Then the point-slope equation of the line is ...

  y - 8 = -1/3(x +1)

Adding 8 gives us a form we can use for a function definition:

  f(x) = -1/3(x +1) +8

  f(x) = -1/3x +7 2/3

Circumference of a circle - derivation

This page describes how to derive the formula for the circumference of a circle.

Recall that the definition of pi (π) is the circumference c of any circle divided by its diameter d. Put as an equation, pi is defined as

π

=

c

d

Rearranging this to solve for c we get

c

=

π

d

The diameter of a circle is twice its radius, so substituting 2r for d

c

=

2

π

r

If you know the area

Recall that the area of a circle is given by

area

=

π

r

2

Solving this for r

r

2

=

a

π

So

r

=

√

a

π

The circumference c of a circle is

c

=

2

π

r
