Answer:

(22,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Select any two points given and find their slope (rise/run)

       (-38, 40) and (-23, 30)

      slope =   \frac{40-30}{-38-(-23)} = - 2/3

2. Use the slope and one of the points to create an equation of the line in the format y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

    y = mx + b ⇒ 40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

3. Solve for b

   40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

   40 = 76/3 + b

   40 - 76/3 = b

   b = 44/3

4. To find the x-intercept, set y = 0, and solve.

   y = -2/3 x + 44/3

   0 = -2/3 x + 44/3

   2/3 x = 44/3

   x = 22

Hope this helped!

Find the value of a and b if root3-1/root3+1+ root3+1/root3-1=a+root3 b​
Digiron [165]

Answer:

a=4 and b = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : \dfrac{\sqrt 3 -1}{\sqrt 3+1}+\dfrac{\sqrt 3+1}{\sqrt 3-1}=a+\sqrt 3 b

To find, The value of a and b

Solution,

Solving LHS of the given equation,

\dfrac{(\sqrt 3-1)^2+(\sqrt3+1)^2}{(\sqrt 3+1)(\sqrt 3-1)}=a+\sqrt 3 b

Since,

(a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\\\\(a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab\\\\(a-b)(a+b)=a^2+b^2

So,

\dfrac{3+1-2\sqrt 3+3+1+2\sqrt 3}{3-1}=a+\sqrt 3 b\\\\4=a+\sqrt 3 b

or

4+0=a+\sqrt 3 b

On comparing we get :

a = 4 and b = 0

State if the two triangles are congruent. if they are state how you know.
nlexa [21]
1) The triangles are congruent by SSS.

The two tick marks indicate two pairs of congruent sides; it is evident that the third side is congruent by the way the diagram is drawn - the bases of the triangles are together and appear to be the same length.

2) The triangles are congruent by SAS.

The two pairs of tick marks indicate congruent sides, and their included angles are congruent because they are vertical angles, and vertical angles are always congruent.

PLEASE Help ....... Will mark brainliest
Andru [333]

The formula for determining the pressure, p, exerted on an object at a depth, h, below the surface of a liquid is p = s + dgh, where s is the atmospheric pressure, d is the density of the liquid, and gas the acceleration due to gravity.

p = s + dgh

dgh = p - s

h = (p - s)/dg

Which formula represents h in terms of p, s, d, and g? Formula B is correct.
