Answer:

y+4=4(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

point slope form is $y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )$ , where m=slope

Plug it in

y-(-4) = 4(x-2)

y+4=4(x-2)

Y+4=4(x-2).

Point slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1)

We can insert the equation by putting our slope (4) as m. Our y1 (-4) counters the subtraction sign, so that side of the equation will be y+4. Our x1 is positive, so it can be easily inserted into the formula (x-2).

Basically; insert the terms into the point-slope formula :)!

Answer:

y= 2/3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the distributive property on the right side of the equation you get 2/3x + 2. Then you add 1 to the right side to cancel out the (-1) on the left.

Answer:

We must use the formula b x h/2 12 x 8/2 = 48

A=48

We must use the formula 1/2a root c squared - a squared

Solving and substituing will get you 35.78

We must divide 81 by 2 to get 9. Since this is a square, all sides will be 9. Then, we must add 9 four times to get 36 cm as our perimeter

B) If we draw the square with a diagonal line, we can understand that the diagonal line (hypotenus) is s root 2.

3) The formula for this area of a triangle is h x b/2. We must substitute the numbers to get our answer:

h x b /2 = 10 x 20/2 = 200/2 = 100

AREA IS 100cm squared

A small combination lock on a suitcase has 55 wheels, each labeled with the 10 digits 0 to 9. How many 55 digit combinations ar

den301095 [7]

Suppose $a_n$ is the number of possible combinations for a suitcase with a lock consisting of $n$ wheels. If you added one more wheel onto the lock, there would only be 9 allowed possible digits you can use for the new wheel. This means the number of possible combinations for $n+1$ wheels, or $a_{n+1}$ is given recursively by the formula

$a_{n+1}=9a_n$

starting with $a_1=10$ (because you can start the combination with any one of the ten available digits 0 through 9).

For example, if the combination for a 3-wheel lock is 282, then a 4-wheel lock can be any one of 2820, 2821, 2823, ..., 2829 (nine possibilities depending on the second-to-last digit).

By substitution, you have

$a_{n+1}=9a_n=9^2a_{n-1}=9^3a_{n-2}=\cdots=9^na_1=10\times9^n$

This means a lock with 55 wheels will have

$a_{55}=10\times9^{54}$

possible combinations (a number with 53 digits).
