Answer:

y - 8 = 3(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the basic point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:

y - k = m(x - h). Here the given point is (2, 8), so assign the value 2 to h and the value 8 to k, also the value 3 to m. Then:

y - 8 = 3(x - 2)

There is 5/6 of an apple pie left from dinner. Tomorrow, Victor plans to eat 1/6 of the pie that was left. How much of the whole

Lady_Fox [76]

5/6 = 83%
1/6= 16%

83% of the apple pie was left from dinner.
Victor is gonna eat 16% of the pie tomorrow
You have to subtract 16% from 83%
In other words 5/6-1/6

The denominators are same so you don't have to do anything to them
5/6 - 1/6

5-1=4

4/6 of the pie would be left
In simplest form it would be

4/6 <span> ÷2</span>
=2/3

2/3 is in simplest form

A water taxi travels around an island in a path that can be modeled by the equation y =0.5(x - 16). A water skier is skiing alon

Eddi Din [679]

I realize that the equation is different, but do it in the same way, it'll help! It is given that the water taxi's path can be modeled by the equation y =0.5(x - 14)^2. Therefore, this is one of the equations in this system. Find a linear equation that will model the path of the water skier, which begins at the point (6,6) and ends at the point (8,-4). The slope is (-5). Use the slope and one point on the line to find the y-intercept of the line. The y-intercept of the line that passes through the points (6,6) and (8,-4) is (0,36). Thus, the equation is y=-5x+36. Now, to determine if it is possible for the water skier to collide with the taxi, we have to determine if there is a solution to the system of equations. To determine if there is a solution to the system of equations, solve the system using substitution. First, write the equation that models the water taxi's path in standard form. y=0.5(x - 14)^2-->0.5x^2-14x+98. Use substitution. Substitute for y in the equation and then solve for x. As the expression on the left side of the equation cannot easily be factored, use the Quadratic Formula to solve for x. Do x=-b(plusorminus)sqrrtb^2-4ac/2a. Identify a, b, and c. a=0.5, b=-9, and c=62. Substitute into the Quadratic Formula. If there is a negative number under the radical, there are NO solutions. Thus, the path of the water skier will never cross the path of the taxi.

In conclusion: It is not possible that the water skier could collide with the taxi as the two paths never cross.

In the diagram below, assume that all points are given in rectangular coordinates. Determine the polar coordinates for each poin

Korolek [52]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have cartisean points. We are trying to find polar points.

We can find r by applying the pythagorean theorem to the x value and y values.

$r {}^{2} = {x}^{2} + {y}^{2}$

And to find theta, notice how a right triangle is created if we draw the base(the x value) and the height(y value). We also just found our r( hypotenuse) so ignore that. We know the opposite side and the adjacent side originally. so we can use the tangent function.

$\tan(x) = \frac{y}{x}$
