Slope = (7 + 8)/(9 -4) = 15/5 = 3

equation

y - 7 = 3(x - 9)

hope it helps

True or False? A circle could be circumscribed about the quadrilateral below.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

<em>The correct answer is:   False</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>If the sum of the opposite angles in a quadrilateral is 180°</u>, then a circle can be circumscribed about the quadrilateral.

Here,  \angle B+\angle D= 110\°+90\° = 180\°

but,  \angle A+\angle C= 70\°+90\°= 160\°

So, a circle can't be circumscribed about the given quadrilateral.

If an exponential model was used to fit the data set below, which of the following would be the best prediction for the output o
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The equation is found to be: y = 50.6e^{0.16x}

y(20) = 1241.34

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is:

x:   3          7         11        14          17

y: 83      142      301     450      722

Now, we find sum summation values, relevant to the formula of exponential regression model, using calculator:

∑ ln y = 27.77305, ∑x ln y = 308.1494, ∑x = 52, ∑ x² = 664

and, n = no. of data points = 5

Now, we use formulae of exponential regression model to find out values of constant:

b = (n∑x lny - ∑x ∑ln y)/[n∑x² - (∑x)²]

b = [(5)(308.1494) - (52)(27.77305)]/[(5)(664) - (52)²]

b = 0.16

Now, for a;

a = (∑ln y - b∑x)/n

Therefore,

a = [(27.77305) - (0.16)(52)]/5

a = 3.9

For, α:

α = e^a = e^3.9

α = 50.6

So, the final equation of exponential regression model is given as:

y = \alpha e^{bx}\\ y = 50.6e^{0.16x}

Now, we find value of y for x = 20:

y(20) = (50.6) e^(0.16*20)

<u>y(20) = 1241.34</u>

If a ramp is 17 feet long rises 8 feet above the floor and covers a horizontal distance of 15 feet what is the ratio of _____ to
Ray Of Light [21]

In the given question, it is given that  ramp is 17 feet long, rises 8 feet above the floor, and covers a horizontal distance of 15 feet.

And we have to find the value of tan B.

And tangent of any angle is equal to the ratio of vertical by horizontal. That is:

tanB=8/15

And that's the required missing ratio for tan B.
