Which equation represents a line that passes through (4,1/3) and has a slope of 3/4?
Oy- 3/4= 1/3(x-4)
Oy-1/3= 3/4(x-4)
Oy- 1/3= 4(x-3/4)
Oy-4 = 3/4(x-1/3)

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

With this kind of problem, we're looking at an equation in the form

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

(m = slope)

so we can substitute m, y1, and x1 with the values we're given.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

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

Answer:

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

Larissa is ordering nachos at a restaurant, and the server tells her that she can have up to four toppings: ground beef, black beans, refried beans, and sour cream. Since she cannot decide how many of the toppings she wants, she tells the server to surprise her. If the server randomly chooses which toppings to add, what is the probability that Larissa gets just refried beans and sour cream

Answers

Answer:

0.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of toppings = 4 (ground beef, black beans, refried beans, and sour cream)

The probability of choosing any particular topping at random from the four is :

Probability = required / total possible outcomes

Hence, P = 1 / 4 = 0.25

Hence, the probability of choosing : getting refried bean and sour cream :

P(refried bean) = 1/4

P(sour cream) = 1/4

P(refried bean and sour cream) = 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16 =

Answer:

[tex]y = -7x -13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Perpendicular to

[tex]7y = x -4[/tex]

Passes through

[tex](-2,1)[/tex]

Required

The equation

First, we calculate the slope of:

[tex]7y = x -4[/tex]

Divide through by 7

[tex]y = \frac{1}{7}x - \frac{4}{7}[/tex]

A linear function is:

[tex]y=mx + c[/tex]

Where;

[tex]m \to slope[/tex]

So:

[tex]m = \frac{1}{7}[/tex]

For the perpendicular line; the slope is:

[tex]m_2 = -\frac{1}{m}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m_2 = -\frac{1}{1/7}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -7[/tex]

The equation is:

[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = -7(x - -2) + 1[/tex]

[tex]y = -7(x +2) + 1[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex]l=56m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Angle from vertical [tex]\theta =5.6[/tex]

Horizontal Distance [tex]d=107m[/tex]

Angle of elevation [tex]\gamma=28.6[/tex]

Generally the Trigonometric equation for exterior angles is mathematically given by

[tex]Exterior\ angles=\sum of\ two\ interior\ angles[/tex]

Where

[tex]Exterior angles=90 \textdegree +5.6 \textdegree[/tex]

Therefore

line.] (2 points: 1 for x, 1 for y)
Hector was standing at the coordinate ( __, _).
Calculate Hector's Throw:

Answers

Answer:

(137.78, 47.72)

Step-by-step explanation:

(I just finished this assignment.)

Tre's position at the pitcher's mound as the point (42.78, 42.78).

                                                                                  (     x    ,    y     )

Hector is about 95 feet away from the pitcher's mound horizontal, (x axis).

Since we already have the correct y-coordinate, we need to solve for the correct x-coordinate.

  x = 95 + 42.78

         ↓ ↓ ↓

95 + 42.78 = 137.72

Now all you need to do is write out the coordinates.

Hector's coordinates are (137.72, 47.78 )

A rectangular painting is to have a total area (including the frame) of 1200 cm2. If the painting is 30 cm long and 20 cm wide, find the width of the frame

Answers

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = width of frame.

The width of the frame is added all around the painting, so you must add 2x to the length of the painting and 2x to the width of the painting to find the total length and width including the frame.

painting length: 30

total length: 2x + 30

painting width: 20

total width: 2x + 20

total area = LW

total area = (2x + 30)(2x + 20)

total area = 1200

(2x + 30)(2x + 20) = 1200

(x + 15)(x + 10) = 300

x^2 + 10x + 15x + 150 = 300

x^2 + 25x - 150 = 0

(x - 5)(x + 30) = 0

x - 5 = 0  or  x + 30 = 0

x = 5  or x = -30

The width of the frame cannot be a negative number, so we discard the solution x = -30.

2. How does the equation for the ellipse compare to the equation for a hyperbola? How can you determine the difference?


3. What is the difference between a vertex, a focus, and a directrix?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

1.

A cone is a 3-dimensional object created by revolving a line about an axis that intersects that line. This figure is a "double-napped" cone. The point where the revolved line and the axis meet is the a.pex, or vertex, of the cone. Typically, we're concerned with a finite portion of the cone, from the vertex to a base that is a circle in a plane perpendicular to the axis.

A "conic" is a 2-dimensional figure that results from the intersection of a plane and a cone. There are four general categories, named according to the angle the plane makes with the axis and/or the side of the cone. These are illustrated in the attachment.

a circle - the plane of intersection is perpendicular to the axisan ellipse - the plane of intersection is at an angle between 90° and the angle of the side relative to the axis. Both an ellipse and a circle are closed figures.a parabola - the plane of intersection is at the same angle as the side of the cone. A parabola is a one-sided open figure.a hyperbola - The plane of intersection is at an angle between that of the side of the cone and the axis of the cone. The plane will intersect both parts of a double-napped cone producing a double-sided open figure.

Producing these at home can be an interesting project. A circle can be made using a compass.

An ellipse can be drawn using a pair of pins and a loop of string. The pins would be placed at the foci of the ellipse, and the string would constrain the drawing instrument (pen or pencil) to have a constant total distance to the two foci.

A parabola can be drawn on graph paper using coordinates derived from an equation for it. It can also be drawn using a compass and a set square by plotting points that are equidistant from the focus and a line that is called the directrix. If you have a physical cone-shaped object, you can cut it at an angle that will produce a parabola.

A hyperbola can be drawn on graph paper from an equation. It can also be drawn using a compass by plotting points that have a constant difference in their distance to the two foci, or by plotting points whose ratio of distance to focus and directrix is a constant. A physical cone-shaped object can be cut to produce a hyperbola.

2.

The general form equation for a conic is ...

  Ax² +Bxy +Cy² +Dx +Ey +F = 0

Usually, we're concerned with conics that have axes parallel to the coordinate axes, so B=0. The equation of an ellipse has A and C with the same sign. The equation of a hyperbola has A and C with opposite signs,

In standard form, the equations for figures centered at the origin are ...

ellipse: x²/a +y²/b = 1hyperbola: x²/a -y²/b = 1 (opens horizontally)hyperbola: y²/a -x²/b = 1 (opens vertically)

__

3.

The vertex of a conic is an extreme point on the (major) axis of the conic. The focus is a point used in the definition of the conic. The focus is "inside" the curve, on the axis of symmetry. The directrix is a line used in the definition of the conic. The directrix is "outside" the curve, perpendicular to the axis. The second attachment shows these for a parabola.
