Hello there! :)

This equation is written in slope-intercept form. which means we can easily idenify the slope and the y-intercept.

First of all, slope-intercept form looks like this:

y=mx+b

The letter m represents the slope, while the letter b represents the y-intercept.

Now, let's look at the values that we have.

We are given the equation of the line:

y=6x-9

We know that m is the slope; therefore, in this equation, 6 is the slope.

-9 is the y-intercept (the letter b)

Therefore, 6 is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

What is the sum of 12 and the quantity 8 times a number k is equal to 48? It was on my math homework, it hardly makes any sence to me, please help me, whats the answer?

Answers

Final answer:

The question is asking for the solution to the algebraic problem 12 + 8k = 48. By isolating 'k', it is found that the value of 'k' is 4.5.

Explanation:

The problem presented here belongs to the branch of algebra. It is showing a relationship between the sum, multiplication, and is presented in a typical algebraic equation format. Let's break it down:

The sum of 12 and a number (which is 8 times k) is equal to 48. This can be written in equation form as:

12 + 8k = 48

To find the value of k, we need to isolate 'k' in the equation. First, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:

8k = 48 - 12

Then, simplify the right side:

8k = 36

Finally, divide both sides by 8 to solve for k:

k = 36 / 8

So, k = 4.5.

Simplify the above equation separately that is:

LHS = 12 - 4x + 6x

       = 12 + 2x

RHS = 2x + 10

For a fixed amount of gas at a constant temperature, the volume of the gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. The function v=18000/p relates the volume in cubic inches and pressure in pounds per square inch of a gas. What is the volume when the pressure is 900 pounds per square inch?

Answers

Answer:

Volume of the gas is 20 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse proportion: Let x and y be two quantities are said to be inverse proportion or inversely proportional if one quantity increases at the same rate the other decreases.

[tex]x \propto \frac{1}{y}[/tex] or

[tex]x = \frac{k}{y}[/tex] ⇒[tex]k =xy[/tex]   where k is constant.

Since, it is given that the volume of gas is inversely propotional to its pressure.

Given the function:  

[tex]v = \frac{18000}{p}[/tex]           ......[1] ; where volume in cubic inches and pressure in pounds per square.

To find the volume in cubic inches.

The pressure (p) = 900 pounds per square inch.

Substitute the value of p in [1];

[tex]v = \frac{18000}{900}= 20 in^3[/tex]

Therefore, the volume(v) = 20 cubic inches when the pressure is 900 pounds per square inch.

The volume when the pressure is 900 pounds per square inch is [tex]20 in^3.[/tex]

What is proportionality?

proportionality can be explained as equality between two ratios, it gives relationship that is always in the same ratio.

We were given the function as[tex]v= \frac{18000}{p}[/tex]

But the pressure is given as pressure (p) = 900 pounds per square inch.

We can get volume, if we substitute "p" as;

[tex]v=\frac{18000}{p}[/tex]

[tex]V= \frac{18000}{900} =20 in^3.[/tex]

Hence, the volume when the pressure is 900 pounds per square inch is [tex]20 in^3.[/tex]

Which function represents g(x), a reflection of f(x) =2/5 (10)x across the x-axis? g(x) =-2/5 (10)x g(x) =-2/5(1/10)^x g(x) =2/5(1/10)^-x g(x) =2/5 (10)-x

Answers

all values of f(x)  will change from positive to negative if you reflect in x-axis.

So the first choice is the correct one.

Answer:

A. [tex]g(x)=-\frac{2}{5}(10)^x[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function [tex]f(x)=\frac{2}{5}(10)^x[/tex].

Now, g(x) is obtained by reflecting the function f(x) over x-axis.

Reflection of f(x) over x-axis changes f(x) to -f(x).

So, we get,

[tex]g(x)=-f(x)[/tex]

i.e. [tex]g(x)=-\frac{2}{5}(10)^x[/tex]

Thus, the reflected function is [tex]g(x)=-\frac{2}{5}(10)^x[/tex].

So, option A is correct.

What is the square root of 26 in simplest radical form?

Answers

Final answer:

The square root of 26 in simplest radical form is just √26, as 26 has no perfect square factor. It can also be expressed as 26 raised to the power of 0.5 based on the concept of fractional powers corresponding to roots.

Explanation:

The square root of 26 in its simplest radical form cannot be simplified further as a perfect square factor because 26 is not a perfect square. However, if we apply the concept of expressing numbers as fractional powers, we can say that any number 'x' squared, written as x², is equivalent to the square root of 'x'. Thus, the square root of 26 can also be written as 26 to the power of 0.5 or 26⁰.⁵.

Expressing the concept mathematically, we can write the square root of any number 'x' as x to the power of 0.5, which is a helpful way to solve for unknown values in various equations. This idea is useful in scenarios where different roots of a number or expressions involving fractional exponents are to be calculated, and it is essential to remember that the square root is just another form of an exponent.

The longest side of an acute isosceles triangle is 8 centimeters. Rounded to the nearest tenth, what is the smallest possible length of one of the two congruent sides?

Answers

This isosceles acute triangle has 2 equal sides (let it be a and the third = 8
To have a triangle we should comply with the following inequality:
a + a > 8
2a > 8
and a>4



Final answer:

To comply with the triangle inequality theorem, the smallest possible length of the congruent sides in an acute isosceles triangle with the longest side being 8 centimeters, would be slightly greater than 4 centimeters, rounded to the nearest tenth (4.1 centimeters).

Explanation:

In the context of an acute isosceles triangle, the longest side is the base and the other two sides are congruent or have equal length. The smallest possible length of the congruent sides comes into play in respect of the triangle inequality theorem, stating that the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side. Thus, for the smallest possible length, each of the congruent sides must hence be just slightly larger than half the length of the longest side. So for an 8 centimeter base, the smallest length for the congruent sides should be slightly more than 4 centimeters, let's call it 4.1 centimeters, when rounded to the nearest tenth.
