`6x - 2y + 8 = 0` Find the inclination 'theta' (in radians and degrees) of the line.

Given `6x-2y+8=0`


Find the slope of the line.


`6x-2y+8=0`


`-2y=-6x-8`


`y=3x+4`


The slope of the line is 3.



Find the angle of inclination.


`theta=arctan(3)=71.6^@=1.2490` radians



The angle of inclination of the line whose slope is 3 is 71.6 degrees or 1.2490 radians.

How can a 0.5 molal solution be less concentrated than a 0.5 molar solution?

The answer lies in the units being used. "Molar" refers to molarity, a unit of measurement that describes how many moles of a solu...
