Answer:

y=2x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want are given a line with a slope of 2, that passes through the point (9, 10)

We want to find the equation of this line in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form can be written as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

As we are already given the slope, we can immediately plug it in as m in the formula.

y=2x+b

Now we need to find b, which is the value of the y intercept

As the equation passes through the point (9, 10), it is a solution to the equation, meaning that if we plug it into the equation of the line, it will create a true statement.

So we can use its values of x and y to help us solve for b.
Substitute 9 as x and 10 as y in the equation.

10=2(9) + b

multiply

10=18+b

Subtract 18 from both sides to isolate b on one side

-8=b
Substitute -8 as b into the equation

y=2x-8
Hope this helps!

The diagram below shows an Isosceles triangle. Label the base angles and the vertex
Dmitry [639]

The base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal

The base angles are 15 degrees, while the vertex angle is 150 degrees

The base angles are given as:

Base = (6a- 3) and (a + 12)

So, we have:

\mathbf{6a -3 =a + 12}

Collect like terms

\mathbf{6a -a =3 + 12}

\mathbf{5a = 15}

Divide both sides by 5

\mathbf{a = 3}

Substitute 3 for a in Base = (6a- 3),

\mathbf{Base = 6 \times 3 - 3}

\mathbf{Base = 18 - 3}\\

\mathbf{Base = 15}

So, the base angle is 15 degrees.

The vertex angle is calculated using:

\mathbf{Vertex=180 -2 \times Base}

So, we have:

\mathbf{Vertex=180 -2 \times 15}

\mathbf{Vertex=150 }

Hence, the vertex angle is 150 degrees

Simplify the quotient (4.5 x 10^3)/(9 x 10^7 ). Write your answer in scientific notation. Show your work.
marishachu [46]
To answer the problem above, divide the numerical portion and the exponential portion of the given numbers. 4.5 divided by 9 is 0.5. Furthermore, 10^3 divided by 10^7 is 10^-4. The answer is 
                    
                                            0.5 x 10^-4

This may still be written in a standard form,
 
                                               5 x 10^-5

Thus, the answer is <em>5 x 10^-5</em>.

A football team won 8 more games than they lost. They played 24 games in the season. How many games were won and how many were l
Vaselesa [24]

The team lost n games.

The team won 8 more games than it lost, so it won n + 8.

The total number of games the team played was n + n + 8, or 2n + 8.

The team played a total of 24 games, so

2n + 8 = 24

We now solve for n.

2n + 8 = 24

2n = 16

n = 8 (lost games)

n + 8 = 8 + 8 = 16 (won games)

Answer: The team won 16 games and lost 8 games.
