What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-6, -6) and has a
slope of -1/3?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find an equation by starting with the slope intercept form:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).

We are given the slope, so:

y = -(1/3)x + b

Now we need to find a value for b that will force the line to go through point (-6,-6).  We can determine by putting the point (-6,-6) into the equation and solving for b:

y = -(1/3)x + b

-6 = -(1/3)(-6) + b   [Enter the point (-6,-6]

-6 = 2 + b

b = - 8

The equation becomes y = -(1/3)x - 8.

The staff at Aretha's Furniture built 60 chairs and stools in one day. It takes one person 3 hours to produce a chair and 2hours to build a stool. How many of each were made if the staff of 12 people worked 8 hours each? x+y= 60; 3x + 2y = 96 x + y = 96; 2x + 3y = 60 You can use a system of equations to find the answer. Let x = the number of chairs, and y = the number of stools. x + y = 60; 2x + 3y = 12 x+y= 60; 3x + 2y = 12 +​

Answers

Answer:

Number of chairs = 24

Number of stools = 12

As about the question number 2, I think you should check whether the question you copied is correct are not.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. One person,

Three hours for a chair and two hours for a stool

Therefore, 12 people working for 8 hours;

Per person produced two chairs and one stool as 3+3+2=8 hours

12×2= 24 chairs and 12×1=12 stools.

h(8) = -2(8)^2 + 4(8)- 7

Answers

Answer:

h = - 103/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Re-order terms so constants are on the left

8h = = -2(8)²+4(8)-7

2) Evaluate the exponent

8h = -2·64+4(8)-7

3) Multiply the numbers

8h = -128+4(8)-7

4) Multiply the numbers

8h = -128+32-7

5) Add the numbers

8h = -103

6) Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

8h/8 = -103/8

7) Simplify

- Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

h = -103/8

What is the equation of the oblique asymptote?
h(x) = x² – 3x - 4/x + 2

Answers

Simplifying h(x) gives

h(x) = (x² - 3x - 4) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x² + 4x + 4) - 4x - 4 - 3x - 4) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7x - 8) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7 (x + 2) - 14 - 8) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7 (x + 2) - 22) / (x + 2)

h(x) = (x + 2) - 7 - 22/(x + 2)

h(x) = x - 5 - 22/(x + 2)

An oblique asymptote of h(x) is a linear function p(x) = ax + b such that

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\pm\infty} h(x) - p(x) = 0[/tex]

In the simplified form of h(x), taking the limit as x gets arbitrarily large, we obviously have -22/(x + 2) converging to 0, while x - 5 approaches either +∞ or -∞. If we let p(x) = x - 5, however, we do have h(x) - p(x) approaching 0. So the oblique asymptote is the line y = x - 5.
