Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.

Mathematics

Answer:

y = -2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a linear graph is y = mx + b

you know the m = -2

so now the equation is y = -2x + b

from here, what you could do to find b is...

plug (-2, 2) into the equation

1) x = -2, y = 2

2) 2 = -2(-2) + b

3) 2 = 4 + b

4) -2 = b

or you can look at the y-intercept which is where the line intersects with the y-axis

it seems to be (0, -2)

so "b" would be equal to -2

this makes the final equation y = -2x + (-2) or y = -2x - 2

A tennis player keeps track of the number of successful first serves he makes. During the first 8 service points of a game, only
Andru [333]

Answer:

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

After n consecutive serves, his total number of serves is going to be n+8, since he has already served 8 times. In the best case, his number of successful first serves is n+2.

His percentage of succesful first serves is the division of the number of succesful first serves divided by the total number of serves. So

P = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

We want P = 0.60. So

0.6 = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

n+2 = 0.6*(n+8)

n + 2 = 0.6n + 4.8

n - 0.6n = 4.8 - 2

0.4n = 2.8

n = \frac{2.8}{0.4}

n = 7

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Describe the sequence of transformations for which Triangle B is the image of Triangle A.
Helga [31]

Answer:

  • reflection in x = 1
  • translation up 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The orientation of B is the opposite of the orientation of A, so a reflection is involved. The smallest angle is at the bottom in both figures, and the largest angle is on the right in A and the left in B, so the reflection is left-right, rather than up-down.

The point midway between the largest angle vertices is on the vertical line x=1, so that line can be used for reflection. Reflecting A across that line will put its large-angle vertex at (3, 0), so a translation up 2 units is also needed.

The reflection on x=1 and translation up 2 can be done in either order.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

A combination of reflection and translation is called a "glide reflection." Our choice of x = 1 as the line of reflection takes care of any horizontal translation that would be required if a different vertical line were used. For example, reflection across the y-axis would require a subsequent translation up 2 and right 2.

1.  Use the Pythagoras theorem
13^2 = x^2 + 5^2
solve for x and youll get the height of the roof.

2.  let x = length of the rpoe)-

x^2 = 9^2 + 12^2

3. Pythagoras again 
20^2 = x^2 + 12^2
