The intercept is -25 because for a quadratic equation in the form
the c value or the number without a variable attached is the y intercept
D = 25 ft is the length of a shadow. L - the length of a tree.
Two angles are 85° and 65° and the third is 180° - ( 65° + 85° ) =
= 180° - 150° = 30°.
We will use the Sine Law:
25 / sin 30° = L / sin 65°
25 / 0.5 = L / 0.9063
25 * 0.9063 = 0.5 L
22.6577 = 0.5 L
L = 22.6577 : 0.5
L = 45.3 ft.
Answer: the approximate length of the tree is 45.3 ft.
Answer:
3.471 + 7.2516 x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
(1,3) (2,0) (5,-8) (9, -25) .
X:
1
2
5
9
Y:
3
0
-8
-25
The line of best fit for the data given can be obtained using an online regression calculator :
The equation of best fit for the data is thus;
Best fit equation; y = -3.471 + 7.2516x
Intercept = - 3.471 ;
Slope = 7.2516
9:7
Ratios are always simplified so by dividing both 18 and 14 by 2 you get 9 and seven. Because yellow triangles is stated first the 9 is put before the 7 blue triangles.
