show a graph that represents y>-6x+5?

Answers

The slope m = -6 and y-intercept = ( 0, 5 ).

The graph is a dash line, shaded area above the boundary line since y is greater than -6x + 5.

What is the graph that represents the given equality?

Given that;

y > -6x + 5

We use the slope intercept form y = mx + b to determine the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b).

y > -6x + 5

y = mx + b

We can see that;

m = -6 and b = 5

Hence, slope = -6 and y-intercept = ( 0, 5 ).

The graph is a dash line, shaded area above the boundary line since y is greater than -6x + 5.

Mia has 24 yards of ribbon. She gave 10 yards to her sister. Mia now wants to work on a project that requires 2 1/4 yards of ribbon per project. What is the greatest number of projects Mia can complete with this ribbon.

(Optional, just please write down step by step explanation) PLEASE ANSWER WITH EXPLANATION AS IF YOU WERE WRITING DOEN ON SCRATCH PAPER

Answers

Answer:

6 projects

Step-by-step explanation:

Original ribbon length = 24 yards

After 10 yards given to sister, Mia is left with 24-10 = 14 yards of ribbon

Each project requires 2 1/4 yards of ribbon.

2 1/4 is 9/4 yards as an improper fraction (2 * 4 + 1 is the numerator and the denominator is unchanged)

We now have to figure out how many times 9/4 yards goes into 14 yards.

For this,

14 ÷ 9/4.
To do this, flip the numerator and denominator of the fraction and multiply

14 ÷ 9/4 = 14 × 4/9 = 56/9 . We ignore any remainder.

9 goes into 56 6 times with remainder of 2 (ignore remainder)
In other words the greatest number of projects = 6

Often times you can use similar triangles in the real world. Sarah is attempting to find the height of a tree by using a mirror. By the laws of physics she knows that the angle of incidence is congruent to the angle of reflection (these are marked in red on the diagram). Explain why the two triangles are similar and if she knows her height and the distance from the mirror to her feet and also the distance from the mirror to the tree how could she calculate the height of the tree?

Answers

The two triangles are similar by the AA Similarity theorem.

The height of the tree can be calculated by figuring out the ratio between the distance between the mirror to her feet and the distance from the mirror to the tree

How to use the concept of similar Triangles?

From Law of Reflection, we know that the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal to each other.

Now, triangles can be proved similar by the AA, SAS, or SSS theorems. However, in this question, the triangles as seen in the attached image can be proved similar by the AA similarity theorem.

This is because both triangles have one congruent angle in common.

Sarah and the tree are standing straight and perpendicular to the ground and as such, the angles formed by Sarah and the tree are right angles.

The above tells us that the two triangles have two angles in common, making them similar triangles by the AA (Angle Angle) similarity theorem.

Since the triangles are similar, it means that the ratios of the sides of the triangles will be the same. Thus,  if Sarah knows the distance from the mirror to her feet and the distance from the mirror to the tree, she can create the ratio between the two triangles.

Determine the iterative rule for each sequence. Show your work.

Your friend trusts your tables in Problem 1, but wonders if you wrote the iterative rules correctly. Show two calculations to convince your friend that both your rules work.

my table is below (it is correct, I checked with my math teacher, it is ten percent added to the previous week for all you doubters)

Answers

The iterative rule for each sequence in the table will be to use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line y=mx+b.

How to depict the information?

In this situation, x is the week, and y is the amount paid. Basically, you need to find the slope, represented by m, which is the amount the amount paid increases by each week, and the y-intercept, b, which is the "amount paid" at week 0.

The x-coordinate is the week, and the y coordinate is the amount paid. Because the weeks are incrementing by 1, x2-x1=1.

After that, to complete the rule, you need to find the y-intercept. If the amount paid is 200 on week 1, and the amount paid increases by 50 each week.

Another way to think about it is by plugging your points into the incomplete rule. Let b represent the y-intercept. Plug in the values for week 1 and solve for b.

The calculations to convince your friend that both your rules work are:

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

(x1,y1)=(1,200)

(x2,y2)=(2,250)

m=(250-200)/(2-1)

=50/1 =50

Find the equation for the line that passes through the point (2, -3), and that is parallel to the line with the equation x - 3y = 3

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is the factor of x, when the equating looks like

y = ...

so,

x - 3y = 3

x = 3y + 3

3y = x - 3

y = 1/3 x - 1

so, the original slope is 1/3.

a parallel line has the same slope.

having a specific point we can use the point-slope form as equation :

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

with m being the slope, and (x1, y1) being a point on the line.

y - -3 = 1/3(x - 2)

y + 3 = 1/3(x - 2)

simplified that is

y + 3 = 1/3 x - 2/3

y = 1/3 x - 2/3 - 3 = 1/3 x - 2/3 - 9/3 = 1/3 x - 11/3 =

= 1/3 × (x - 11)

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x - \frac{11}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the line x-3y=3.

We want to write the equation of the line that is parallel to this line, and that passes through (2, -3).

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Therefore, let's find the slope of x-3y=3.

The line is currently written in standard form, which is ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients.

In order to find the slope of this line, we can convert it into slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the value of y at the y intercept.

To do that, we need to isolate y on one side; this is the same as solving the equation for y.

x - 3y = 3

Start by subtracting x from both sides

-3y = -x + 3

Now divide both sides by -3

[tex]y = \frac{1}{3} x - 1[/tex]

The slope of the line is 1/3, as 1/3 is the coefficient in front of x.

It is also the slope of our new line.

Since the question doesn't specify which format for the equation of the line, we can use any form. However, let's put the equation of the new line into slope-intercept form.

So, substitute 1/3 as m in y=mx+b.

[tex]y = \frac{1}{3} x + b[/tex]

Now we need to find b.

As the equation passes through the point (2, -3), we can use its values to help solve for b.

Substitute 2 as x and -3 as y.

[tex]-3 = \frac{1}{3} (2) + b[/tex]

Multiply.

[tex]-3 = \frac{2}{3} + b[/tex]

Subtract 2/3 from both sides (we can write this as an improper fraction).

[tex]-\frac{11}{3} = b[/tex]

Substitute -11/3 as b in the equation.

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x - \frac{11}{3}[/tex]

Answers

We will spend altogether $1400.

We know that the process of combining two or more items is known as an addition. Addends are the sums of the numbers that are added. The addition sign (+), which is positioned in between the addends, is present. The outcome of adding the addends is referred to as the sum.

Given that

Food = $594.09

Clothes = $204.33

Trips = $100.40

Extras = $189.74

Food = $600

Clothes = $200

Trips = $100

Transport = $300

Extras = $200

Answers

The whale exists swimming at 30 mph in calm water and the current exists flowing at 10 mph.

How to estimate the speed of the whale in calm water and the rate of the ocean current?

Let x be the speed of a whale in calm water

and y be the speed of the current

In 7 hours the whale swims against the current and travels 140 miles:

7(x - y) = 140

x - y = 140/7

x - y = 20 ...........(1)

In 3.5 hours the whale swims the same distance with the current:

3.5(x + y) = 140

x + y = 140/3.5

x + y = 40 ...........(2)

Adding (1) and (2), we get the value of x:

x - y = 20  + ...........(1)

x + y = 40 ...........(2)

-----------------

2x = 60

x = 60/2

x = 30

Using this value for "x" in either (1) or (2) we can solve for "y":

x - y = 20 ...........(1)

substitute for "x"

30 - y = 20

10 = y

Therefore, the whale exists swimming at 30 mph in calm water and the current exists flowing at 10 mph.
