Which of the following is an equation of the line that has a slope of - 3 and passes through the point (-6, 2)? ​

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

m = -3 ; (-6 , 2)

Slope point form : y - y1 = m(x -x1)

y - 2 = -3(x - [-6])

y - 2 = -3(x + 6)

y -2 = -3x + 6*(-3)

y - 2 = -3x - 18

    y = -3x - 18 + 2

  y = -3x - 16

Answers

Answer:

9) 379.94 mm2

10)19.625 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

a=(pi)r2

a=3.14(11 mm2)

a=3.14(121 mm2)

a=3.14*121 mm2

a=379.94 mm2

a=(pi)r2

a=3.14(2.5 ft2)

a=3.14(6.25 ft2)

a=3.14*6.25ft2

a=19.625 ft2

Answer:

(I don't know where to round the numbers to, so I'll just put the full areas)

The answer to 9. is: 380.132711 mm², and the answer to 10. is: 19.6349541 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr². (A = area, π = pi, r = radius.) When you substitute the variables in the formula for the values of question #9, you get A = π(11)². (It's 11 because the radius is half of the diameter, which in this case is 22 mm.) And when you substitute the variables for the values of question #10, you get A = π(2.5)². And from there, you just finish the equations. Hope this helps :)

An account earns simple interest.

$1675 at 4.6% for 4 years



a. Find the interest earned.

$

b. Find the balance of the account.

$

Answers

a. The interest earned is $307.40.

b. The balance of the account after 4 years is $1982.40.

What is simple interest?

Simple interest is a type of interest that is calculated only on the principal amount of a loan or investment. It is a fixed percentage of the principal amount that is added to the loan or investment balance over a specified period of time.The formula for simple interest is:

I = P * r * t

What is principal?

In finance, the term "principal" usually refers to the initial amount of money that is borrowed or invested, excluding any interest or other fees that may be added on later.

In the given question,

a. To find the interest earned, we can use the formula:

Interest = Principal x Rate x Time

where Principal is the initial amount of money, Rate is the interest rate, and Time is the duration of the investment. Plugging in the given values, we get:

Interest = $1675 x 0.046 x 4

Interest = $307.40

Therefore, the interest earned is $307.40.

b. To find the balance of the account, we simply add the interest earned to the initial amount:

Balance = Principal + Interest

Balance = $1675 + $307.40

Balance = $1982.40

Therefore, the balance of the account after 4 years is $1982.40.

Options aren't given in the question. However a concise explanation will be given.

Answer:

Length = 1 ; width = 2 and vice versa

Length = 0.5 ; width = 2.5 and vice versa

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is obtained using the formular :

Perimeter = 2(length + Width)

Hence the sum of the length and width of the rectangle multiplied by 2 should give 6

Hence, possible dimension will. Include :

A dimension whereby the sum of length and width gives 3

Length = 1 ; width = 2 and vice versa

Length = 0.5 ; width = 2.5 and vice versa

These are possible dimension of the rectangle which has a perimeter of 6

find the area of the shaded region to the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer:

Area of shaded region = 13.07 unit² (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Given shaded region is a segment

Radius of circle = 12

Given angle = 60°

Find:

Area of shaded region

Computation:

Area of shaded region = Area of segment

Area of segment = (θ/360)(π)(r²) - (1/2)(sinθ)(r²)

Area of segment = (60/360)(22/7)(12²) - (1/2)(sin60)(12²)

Area of segment = (0.1667)(3.14)(144) - (0.5)(0.866)(144)

Area of segment = (75.42) - (62.35)

Area of segment = 13.07 unit²

Area of shaded region = 13.07 unit² (Approx.)
