To write the equation of a line, we use the equation: y = mx +b.
m is the slope of the line, which can be calculated using the equation:
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
We can choose any two points on the line to put into this equation. The red dots are at (0,0) and (-6,-2), so we will use those, but you would get the same answer by using any other pair of coordinates on the blue line.
m = (-2 - 0)/(-6 - 0) = 2/6 = 1/3
b is the y-intercept of the line. The y-intercept is the y-coordinate when the line crosses the y-axis. It crosses the y-axis at (0,0), so the y-intercept is 0.
Now, we plug our values back into the full equation to get the equation of the line.
y = mx + b
y = (1/3)x + 0
So the final answer is y = (1/3)x or y = x/3, depending on how you want to write it.
I'm afraid you're wrong. We may divide 24 by 8 to find out how long does it take for Alejandra to husk 1 ear of corn and then just divide 33 by the result:
24 ÷ 8 = 3
So Alejandra husks 1 ear of corn in 3 minutes.
33 ÷ 3 = 11
Answer: In 33 minutes Alejandra can husk <u>11 ears of corn</u>.
Answer: ∠DOB: 48°
Step-by-step explanation:
1. we need an equation first. the sum of all angles (108°, n°, 2n°) is equal to 180°. we can depict this with the equation: 108°+2n°+n°=180°
2. now we can solve for the missing variable, n.
108°+3n°=180° → subtract both sides by → 3n°=72° → divide both sides by 3 → n=24°
3. now that we know that n=24°, we can solve the value of ∠DOB. we can see that ∠DOB is 2n° which we just plug the number we got for n into the equation. 2*24=48° meaning ∠DOB is 48°
hope this heped! ♡
