What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-8, 3) and has a
slope of -1/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-1/4x + 1 ( If this is wrong then ignore this)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a problem like this is y - y1 = m(x - x1). The x coordinate, -8 is the x1 and the y coordinate 3 is x1. So the equation is y - 3 = -1/4(x + 8)

Equation:

y - 3 = -1/4(x + 8)

y - 3= -1/4x - 2

y = -1/4x + 1

Therefore the equation for the line is y = -1/4x + 1

Answer 2

Given parameters:

 Slope of the line  = [tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

 Coordinates of the points = (-8, 3)

Unknown:

Equation of the line = ?

Solution:

To find the equation of the line, we must note that any straight line can be represented by the equation;

        y  = mx + c

 where x and y are the coordinates

             m is the slope

              c is the y-intercept of the line

Input the parameters and solve for c;

     x = -8 and y  = 3;

         3  = [tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x (-8) + c

         3 = 2 + c

        c  = 1;

  So the equation of the line is ;

     y  = [tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]x + 1

     multiply through by 4;

   4y = -x + 4

The equation of the line is 4y = -x + 4

In the table shown, the ratio of miles biked to hours biked is constant.

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see it would come out to be one with 44/4 so if you made it m/7 it would have to come out with a one so it would be 77.

The proportion 44/4=m/7 can be used to determine the value of m.

What is Ratio?

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0.

The  ratio of miles biked to hours biked is constant.

The given table is

Miles biked    11        44     m        132    165

Hours biked    1         4       7         12      h

We have to find the value of m.

m is the number of miles biked in 7 hr.

By using the proportion we can find m.

44/4=m/7

11=m/7

Apply cross multiplication

m=77

Hence, the proportion 44/4=m/7 can be used to determine the value of m.

Xavier is driving home. He starts 250 miles from home and his car can travel 28 miles per gallon of gasoline he uses. Xavier stops at a rest stop that is 100 miles from home. Let g be the amount or gas he has used at that point. Set up and solve an equation for how much gas Xavier used to get to the rest stop.

Answers

Answer:

For 100 miles he uses 3.571 gallons of gasoline.

In equation form it is y/x*100

Step-by-step explanation:

Unitary Method

He travels 28 miles per gallon of gasoline.

For 1 mile he uses  1/28 gallons

For 100 miles he uses 1/28 * 100= 100/28= 3.571 gallons of gasoline.

Let x be the miles and y be the gallons of gasoline used to travel x miles.

Then for 1 mile  the gallons of gasoline used will be y/ x gallons.

For 100 miles  the gallons of gasoline used will be y/x *100 gallons.

In equation form it is y/x*100 gallons for 100 miles where x is the number of miles and y is the amount of gallons.

Great! So let’s solve for Joe’s Plumbing charges first. To find his price for 3 hours, solve J(3)=45(3)=$135.

Now let’s find Mark’s Plumbing charges. To find his price for 3 hours, plug 3 into M(t)=40t+25. So, M(3)=40(3)+25=$145.

1. A hexagon is inscribed in a circle. If the difference between the area of the circle and the area
of the hexagon is 24 m”, use the formula for the area of a sector to approximate the radius
of the circle. Give an exact answer( doesn't have to be rationalized) and round to 2 decimals.

Answers

Answer:

The radius, r ≈ 6.55 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

An inscribed hexagon in a circle

The area of the hexagon = Area of the circle - 24 m²

The formula for the area of the circle = π·r² = π × r²

The area of each of the six equilateral triangle in the hexagon = √3/4 × r²

Where;

r = The radius of the circle

The area of a sector of a circle in which the equilateral triangle is inscribed = 60/360×π·r² = 1/6×π·r² = 1/6 × Area of the circle

Given that the sector of the circle in which one of the six equilateral triangles of the hexagon is inscribed is 1/6 the area of the circle, the difference in area between the equilateral triangle and the sector = 24/6 = 4

Therefore, the difference in the area between the sector of the circle and the area of the equilateral triangle = 4 m²

We then write;  1/6×π·r²- √3/4 × r² = 4

r²·(1/6×π- √3/4) = 4

r² = 4/(1/6 ×π - √3/4) = 48/(2·π -3·√3)

r = √(48/(2·π -3·√3) = 6.55 m to 2 decimal places

The radius, r ≈ 6.55 m.

Answers

Answer:

179

Step-by-step explanation:

40+156=196

375-196= $179.00

if I'm not wrong

Answer: $59 increase

Step-by-step explanation: since we don't know how much she had in her bank account prior to making 4 withdrawals it's hard to find the answer so a like and rating would be appreciated. We know she withdrew $40 dollars 4 times which would mean she withdrew $160 dollars, then she used her card for a $156 dollar purchase, so if we add $160 and $156 dollars we get $316 dollars spent. Then she deposited a check of $375 dollars into the bank account so we have to subtract $316 from $375 dollars to get $59 dollars, now since we subtracted and we are left with an extra amount rather than the money wasted we started with it means it's an increase as we are left with $59 and not with a price lower than $316.
