What is the equation of a line through the points (0, 9) and (3, 0)?
because m = StartFraction 9 minus 0 Over 0 minus 3 EndFraction; y = –3x + 9 because m = StartFraction 9 minus 0 Over 0 minus 3 EndFraction; y = –3x + 3 because m = StartFraction 3 minus 0 Over 0 minus 9 EndFraction; y = negative one-third x + 9
because m = StartFraction 3 minus 0 Over 0 minus 9 EndFraction; y = negative one-third x + 3 Mark

  m = StartFraction 9 minus 0 Over 0 minus 3 EndFraction; y = –3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are the y-intercept and the x-intercept, so they can be used directly in the intercept form of the equation of a line.

  x/(x-intercept) +y/(y-intercept) = 1

  x/3 +y/9 = 1

Multiplying by 9 gives ...

  3x +y = 9

This can be rearranged to the slope-intercept form ...

  y = -3x +9

The answer selection shown above is the only one that matches the slope and y-intercept of the line through the given points.

something that characterises a right triangle is the fact that we may use pythagoras' theorem to find any one of its sides given that we have the length of the other two sides. here, we have the length of the hypotenuse, √(87) yd, and one other side, √(23) yd, thus we can easily find the length of the remaining side using pythagoras' theorem as defined below:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.

thus, given that c = √(87) and a = √(23), we may substitute these into the formula we defined above to get:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

(√87)^2 = (√23)^2 + b^2 (substitute c = √87 and a = √23 into the equation)

87 = 23 + b^2 (evaluate (√87)^2 = 87 and (√23)^2 = 23 - remember that the square root of a number, squared will equal that very same number)

64 = b^2 (subtract 23 from both sides)

√64 = b (take the square root of both sides)

8 = b (evaluate √64 = 8)

therefor, the length of the unknown leg in the right triangle is 8 yd (first answer).

no one knows lol
