Answer:

Slope = 0

Explanation:

m= (−7) − (−7) / (−13) − (−1) = 0

(x1,y1)=(−1,−7) and (x2,y2)=(−13,−7). Since y1=y2 therefore this line is parallel to x-axis. Hence slope is zero.

In this diagram, ABAC – AEDF. If the<br> area of ABAC = 6 in?, what is the<br> area of AEDF?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

2.7 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles have the same angles, and all side lengths (or other distances) of one triangle have the same scaling factor to the side lengths of the other triangle.

so, we know the relation between the 2 baselines is 2/3, as this is the factor to turn the baseline of the large triangle into the baseline of the smaller triangle.

in other words

EF = BC × 2/3

2 = 3 × 2/3

correct

how do we calculate the area of a triangle ?

Area = baseline × height / 2

from BAC we know

Area = 6

baseline = 3

height = ?

6 = 3 × height / 2

12 = 3 × height

height = 4

aha !

now, EDF has a height too that we need to calculate is Area. and this height has the same scaling factor compared to the larger triangle as the side lengths : 2/3

so, for EDF we know

Area = ?

baseline = 2

height = 4 × 2/3 = 8/3

therefore, the area is

Area = (2 × 8/3) / 2 = (16/3) / 2 = 8/3 = 2.66666... ≈ 2.7

the shirt answer would be :

we know from the 2 baselines that the scaling factor for each distance is 2/3.

for the area we need to multiply 2 distances, so that means we have to multiply both by 2/3. and so on the formula for the area we have to use 2/3 × 2/3.

2/3 × 2/3 = 4/9

=>

Area small = Area large × 4/9 = 6 × 4/9 = 24/9 = 8/3 ≈ 2.7

A baker made 20 pies. A Boy Scout troop buys one–fourth of his pies, a preschool teacher buys one–third of his pies, and a cater
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The number of pies does the baker have left is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A baker made 20 pies. A Boy Scout troop buys one–fourth of his pies, a preschool teacher buys one–third of his pies, and a caterer buys one–sixth of his pies.

To find : How many pies does the baker have left?

Solution :

Let x be the number of pies does the baker have left.

According to question,

Number of pies buys,

One-fourth =\frac{1}{4}

One-third =\frac{1}{3}

One-sixth =\frac{1}{6}

i.e. x=20-(20\times \frac{1}{4}+20\times \frac{1}{3}+20\times \frac{1}{6})

x=20-(5+20\times \frac{1}{3}+10\times \frac{1}{3})

x=20-(5+\frac{20+10}{3})

x=20-(5+ \frac{30}{3})

x=20-(5+10)

x=20-(15)

x=5

The number of pies does the baker have left is 15.

What is the value of h when the function is converted to vertex form?
elena-s [515]

Answer: h=7

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition the function in vertex form is:

 f(x)=a(x-h)^{2}+k

Where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola.

You must group the terms that contain the same variable in the function:

f(x)=(x^{2}-14x)+29

Complete the square as following:

f(x)=(x^{2}-14x+49)+29-49

Now you must rewrite it as following:

 f(x)=(x-7)^{2}-20

Then:

h=7

In a certain arithmetic sequence, if -4 is the first term and 10 is the third term, which term is 157?
likoan [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = a₁ + d(n-1); where 'd' if common difference

a₁₅₇ = -4 + 7(156)

      = -4 + 1092

      = 1,088
