Mary was told that a line goes through the points (1, 3) and (6, -2) and has a slope of 3.

ki77a [65]

Answer:

a. The slope is incorrect

b. y = 3x, ( 0 , 0 )

c) y = 4 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

The slope between two points (1, 3) and (6, -2) is 3.

a. Explain why the information Mary was given cannot be correct.

- The slope between two arbitrary points, ( x1 , y1 ) and (x2 , y2) is given by the following relationship:

slope = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1)

- Use the given points (1, 3) and (6, -2) and determine the slope:

slope = ( -2 - 3 ) / ( 6 - 1 )

slope = ( -5 ) / ( 5 )

slope = -1

- Yes, the given slope is incorrect it should be = -1

b.If the given point (1, 3) and the given slope are correct, what is the equation for the line? Give the coordinates of another point on the line

- We will assume the point (1,3) lies on line with a slope = 3.

- We will use the slope-intercept equation of line:

y = slope*x + c

Where, m : Slope

c : y-intercept

y = 3x + c

Using the given correct point to evaluate the y-intercept (c):

3 = 3*1 + c

c = 0

- The equation of line is,

y = 3x

- The origin (0,0) lies on the line y = 3x.

c. If the given points are correct for the line, what is the slope? Write an equation for the line

- We will assume the points (1, 3) and (6, -2) lies on line with a slope calculated in part (a) to be = -1.

- We will use the slope-intercept equation of line:

y = slope*x + c

Where, m : Slope

c : y-intercept

y = -x + c

Using the given points to evaluate the y-intercept (c):

3 = -1 + c

c = 4

- The equation of line is,

y = -x + 4

You’re working in the sedan section of dean’s car dealership. A customer makes a down payment of 15% on a new car that costs $13

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Convert 15 % to a decimal.

Then multiply 0.15 x 13450. That means the answer is $2,017.50

Which statements about the figure are true? Select two options.

harina [27]

<u>Complete Question</u>

The circle is inscribed in triangle PRT. A circle is inscribed in triangle P R T. Points Q, S, and U of the circle are on the sides of the triangle. Point Q is on side P R, point S is on side R T, and point U is on side P T. The length of R S is 5, the length of P U is 8, and the length of U T is 6. Which statements about the figure are true?

Answer:

(B)TU ≅ TS

(D)The length of line segment PR is 13 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the question is drawn for more understanding,

The theorem applied to this problem is that of tangents. All tangents drawn to a circle from the same point are equal.

Therefore:

|PQ|=|PU|=8 Units

|ST|=|UT| =6 Units

|RS|=|RQ|=5 Units

(b)From the above, TU ≅ TS

(d)Line Segment |PR|=|PQ|+|QR|=8+5=`13 Units

-3^(-x)-6=-3^x+10<br><br>Solve the equation below for x by graphing plz

vitfil [10]

To graph it, just graph $y=-3^{-x}-6$ and $y=-3^x+10$ and see where they intersect

I would like to solve it by using math and not graphing
if you don't want to see the math, just don't scroll down
the graphical meathod is above, first line, just read it

hmm
multiply both sides by -1
$3^{-x}+6=3^x-10$
multiply both sides by $3^x$
$3^0+6(3^x)=3^{2x}-10(3^x)$
$1+6(3^x)=3^{2x}-10(3^x)$
minus 1 from both sides and minus 6(3^x) from both sides
$0=3^{2x}-16(3^x)-1$
use u subsitution
$u=3^x$
we can rewrite it as
$0=u^2-16u-1$
now factor
I mean use quadratic formula
for $ax^2+bx+c=0$ $x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
so for 0=u^2-16u-1, a=1, b=-16, c=-1
$u=\frac{-(-16)+/-\sqrt{(-16)^2-4(1)(-1)}{2(1)}$
$u=8+/-\sqrt{65}$
remember that u=3^x so u>0
if we have u=8+√65, it's fine, but u=8-√65 is negative and not allowed
so therfor
$u=8+\sqrt{65}=3^x$
$8+\sqrt{65}=3^x$
if you take the log base 3 of both sides you get
$log_3(8+\sqrt{65})=x$
if you use ln then
$ln(8+\sqrt{65})=xln(3)$
then
$\frac{ln(8+\sqrt{65})}{ln(3)}=x$
