Answer:  3x+8y+17=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the equation of a line passing through a point (a,b) ans has slope 'm' is given by :-

(y-b)=m(x-b)

Given : Slope : m=\dfrac{-3}{8}

Point = (5, -4)

Then, the equation of a line passing through a point (5, -4) ans has slope \dfrac{-3}{8} is given by :-

(y-(-4))=\dfrac{-3}{8}(x-5)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 8(y+4)=-3(x-5)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 8y+32=-3x+15\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3x+8y+32-15\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3x+8y+17=0\ \ [\text{In standard form}]

Therefore,  the standard form of the line that contains a slope of \dfrac{-3}{8} and passes through the point (5, -4):

3x+8y+17=0

The distance of a golf ball from the hole can be represented by the right side of a parabola with vertex (−1, 8). The ball reach
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The required equation is:

y = -\frac{4}{3}t^2 -\frac{8}{3}t + 4

Explanation:

Let us assume that the hole is at y = 0m, with x as the time.

From the question we have (-1s, 8m) as the vertex (here x being the time variable is supposed to be in seconds and y being the distance variable is supposed to be in meters)

At x = 1s, the ball gets to the hole, therefore we have point (1s, 0m)

We know that the vertex of the parabola y = ax² + bx + c is at

x =\frac{-b}{2a}

therefore we have:

-1 = \frac{-b}{2a}

We then have the following equations:

8 = a\times -1^2 + b\times -1 + c

0 = a\times -1^2 + b\times 1 + c

-1 = \frac{-b}{2a}

From the 3rd equation we have

1 X 2a = b.

Therefore we have:

8 = a\times -1^2 - 1\times 2a\times1 + c

0 = a\times 1^2 + 1 \times2a\times 1 + c

We can simplify both equations and get:

8 = a\times( -1^2 - 2s^2) + c = -a\times 3^2 + c

0 = a\times(1^2 + 2^2) + c = a\times 3^2 + c

The first equation now becomes:

8 = -a\times 3 - a\times 3 = -a\times 6

a = frac{8}{-6} = -\frac{4}{3}

With a, we can find the values of c and b.

c = -a\times3 = -(-\frac{4}{3})*3 = 4

b = 1\times 2a = 1\times 2(-\frac{4}{3})= -\frac{8}{3}

Then the equation is:

y = -\frac{4}{3}t^2 -\frac{8}{3}t + 4

Adam is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars and $8 per hour walking dogs. Last week Adam earned a total of
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Washing cars= 4 hours

Walking dogs= 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to start by creating equations. So one thing we know is that he makes $9 an hour washing cars(x) and $8 walking dogs(y).

$9x+$8y=$116

The second Equation is based off of the hours worked. We know that he worked 6 hours more walking the dogs than he did washing cars, so we can take x(being the washing hours) and add 6 to it to equal y (the number of dog hours).

y=x+6

Now You plug what y equals into the first equation to solve for x.

9x+8(x+6)=116     Next distribute the 8 to each term.

9x+8(x)+8(6)=116

9x+8x+48=116     Add the like terms together (9x+8x)

17x+48=116         Subtract the 48 from both sides

     -48  -48

17x=68             Now divide by 17 on both sides.

______

17    17

x=4                 Finally we can take x and plug it back in to one of the equations in order to solve for y. I'm going to choose the second equation.

y=(4)+6

y=10

What is the length of AC ?<br><br> 3ft<br> 4ft<br> 9ft<br> 18ft
WINSTONCH [101]

ΔACB and ΔMNB are similar. Therefore the corresponding sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{AC}{MN}=\dfrac{CB}{NB}\\\\MN=9\ ft\\CB=2\cdot3\ ft=6\ ft\\NB=3\ ft

Substitute:

\dfrac{AC}{9}=\dfrac{6}{3}\\\\\dfrac{AC}{9}=2\ \ \ \ |\cdot9\\\\AC=18\ ft

Simplify the radical expression
LenKa [72]
<span>To multiply two radicals together, we can simply multiply both the values inside the radicals together and put that in a radical.
So for 5*sqrt(45b) * 6*sqrt(48b), we get 30*sqrt(45b*48b) = 30*sqrt(2160b^2).   This value can be simplified further by taking out b^2 and 12^2 from the radical giving us the answer 360b*sqrt(15).</span>
