Answer:

Gradient = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of a line is the slope of the line.

The standard form of the line equation is y = mx  + b

where m is the slope ( or gradient) b is the y - intercept.

Given :

2y = -10x + 1

[tex]y = -\frac{10}{2} x + \frac{1}{2}\\\\y = -5x + \frac{1}{2}\\\\Therefore , \ gradient \ is \ -5[/tex]

The gradient of the line whose equation is 2y=-10x+1 is -5.

Gradient could be a measure of how steep a slope or a line is.

The equation of the road is 2y=-10x+1

y=-5x+1/2

Therefore the gradient of the line is that the coefficient of x which is -5.

Hence the gradient of the line is -5.

∠ B = ∠ E = 45°

∠ F = ∠ C = 22°

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Temperature after 1 minute = 140 - 5(1)

Temperature after 2 minutes = 140 - 5(2)

Temperature after 3 minutes = 140 - 5(3),

- and so on.

So the function is

y = 140 - 5x.

The temperature of the steak after a certain number of minutes can be described as the function

y = 140 - 5x

A linear equation with one variable has the standard form Cx + D = 0. In this case, the variable is x and C are coefficient, while D is a constant.

Let the certain number of minute is x.

Since the temperature decreases at 5° F per minute, then after x minutes, it will decrease 5x.

Initial temperature = 140° F

Then the present temperature, y = 140 - 5x.

Therefore, the temperature of the steak after a certain number of minutes can be described as the function

y = 140 - 5x

Answer:

Tina worked [tex]3 \frac{5}{6}[/tex] hours on Friday.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for how many hours Tina worked on Friday you have to add up all the hours worked then subtract that from 15 hours to get the remainder.

Step 1 : Add up all the hours worked so far.

[tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex] + 4 + [tex]2\frac{1}{6}[/tex]  + [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = ?

We need to turn these mixed numbers into improper fractions first so we can add. Let's turn them all into sixths.

[tex]3 \frac{3}{6}[/tex] + 4 + [tex]2\frac{1}{6}[/tex] + [tex]1 \frac{3}{6}[/tex] = [tex]11\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Allright, so now we know that Tina already worked 11 and 1/6 hours already, so we subtract that from 15 to find how many hours she worked on Friday.

Step 2 : Subtract [tex]11\frac{1}{6}[/tex] from 15.

15 - [tex]11\frac{1}{6}[/tex] = [tex]3 \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Therefore Tina worked [tex]3 \frac{5}{6}[/tex] hours on Friday.

Note:

Answer:

a.  (-3, 6)

b. 268.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Determine the coordinates of the tennis court.

Let (x,y) be the coordinates of the tennis court. Since we have equal distances from the tennis court to each residence, we have using the equation for distance between two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂), d = √[(y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²]. Using the first two residences, (-6, 12) and (0,0) as (x₂,y₂) and (x, y) = (x₁,y₁), So,

d = √[(12 - y)² + (-6 - x)²]

d = √[(12 - y)² + (6 + x)²]

d = √[(144 - 24y + y² + 36 + 12x + x²]

d = √x² + y² + 12x - 24y + 180

d² = x² + y² + 12x - 24y + 180  (1)

Also, with (x₂, y₂) = (0,0) we have

d = √[(0 - y)² + (0 - x)²]

d = √[( - y)² + (- x)²]

d = √[y² + x²]

d = √[x² + y²]

d² = x² + y²  (2)

Also, with (x₂, y₂) = (3,9) we have

d = √[(9 - y)² + (3 - x)²]  

d = √[(81 - 18y + y² + 9 - 6x + x²]

d = √(x² + y² - 6x - 18y + 90)

d² = x² + y² - 6x - 18y + 90 (3)

Substituting (2) into (1), we have

d² = x² + y² + 12x - 24y + 180   (1)

d² = d² + 12x - 24y + 180  (1)

d² - d² = 12x - 24y + 180

12x - 24y + 180 = 0

12x - 24y = -180

dividing through by 12, we have

x - 2y = -15  (4)

Substituting (2) into (3), we have

d² = x² + y² - 6x - 18y + 90 (3)

d² = d² - 6x - 18y + 90 (3)

d² - d² = - 6x - 18y + 90

- 6x - 18y + 90 = 0

- 6x - 18y = -90

dividing through by -6, we have

x + 3y = 15 (5)

Subtracting (5) from (4), we have

x - 2y = -15  (4)

-

x + 3y = 15 (5)

-5y = -30

y = -30/-5

y = 6

substituting y = 6 into (4), we have

x - 2y = -15

x - 2(6) = -15

x - 12 = -15

x = 12 - 15

x = -3

So, the coordinates of the tennis court is (-3, 6)

b. What is the distance from a residence to the court to the nearest 10th of a metre? (1unit=40m).

Using equation (2),

d² = x² + y²  (2) where x and y are the coordinates of the tennis court, and x = -3 and y = 6

So,

d² = x² + y²  

d² = (-3)² + (6)²  

d² = 9 + 36  

d² = 45

d = √45 units

Since 1 unit = 40 m,

d = √45 × 40 m

d = 6.708 × 40 m

d = 268.33 m

d ≅ 268.3 m to the nearest tenth of a metre

Answer:

M1=44 M2=136 M3=44 M4=136

Step-by-step explanation:

M3= 44 so M1=44 due to opposite angles being equal

then if two of the angles add to 88

360-88= 272

divide 272 by 2 as M2 and M4 are equal

272/2=136

Answer:

m∠1 = 44°

m∠2 = 136°

m∠4 = 136°

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠1 explanation:

I got it from m∠3 since they're both congruent

m∠2 explanation:

Since we already have the measure of 3 and 1, we can easily add both of the measures (44 + 44 = 88°) then subtract it from 360° (total) = 272°

Then since both measures (2 and 4) are congruent (measuring the exact same length and angle) we can divide 272° ÷ 2 = 136°

m∠4 explanation:

I got it from m∠2 since they're both congruent

Given:

Steven charges $31.25 for 5 hours and $43.75 for 7 hours.

To find:

The equation that represents the relationship.

Solution:

Let x represent the number of hours Steven babysits and y represent the amount he charges.

Then the two points on the function are (5,31.25) and (7,43.75). So, the equation of the line that passes through these two points is:

[tex]y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-31.25=\dfrac{43.75-31.25}{7-5}(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]y-31.25=\dfrac{12.5}{2}(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]y-31.25=6.25(x-5)[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]y-31.25=6.25(x)-6.25(5)[/tex]

[tex]y-31.25=6.25x-31.25[/tex]

[tex]y=6.25x-31.25+31.25[/tex]

[tex]y=6.25x[/tex]

Therefore, the required equation for the given situation is [tex]y=6.25x[/tex].
