$\textsf{4x - 5 = 3}$

$\textsf{4x = 5 + 3}$

$\textsf{4x = 8}$

$\textsf{x = 8 ÷ 4}$

$\textsf{x = 2}$

1. Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

#1) y = -4x + 1; #2) parallel; #3) y = -1/2x + 5/2; #4) y = 2x + 4; #5) Never

Step-by-step explanation:

#1) We want a line that passes through (1, -3) and is parallel to y = 2-4(x-1). First we simplify our equation using the distributive property:

y = 2-4(x-1) = 2-4(x) -4(-1) = 2-4x--4 = 2-4x + 4 = -4x + 6

Lines that are parallel have the same slope; this means we want a line through (1, -3) with a slope of -4. Using point-slope form,

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y--3=-4(x-1)\\\\y+3=-4(x)-4(-1)\\\\y+3=-4x+4\\\\y+3-3=-4x+4-3\\\\y=-4x+1$

#2) We must first write our second equation in slope-intercept form by isolating the y term:

2x+y=7

Subtract 2x from each side"

2x+y-2x = 7-2x

y = -2x+7

This means the slope is -2; the slopes are the same, so the lines are parallel.

#3) The slope of our given equation is 2. To be perpendicular, the second line must have a slope that is a negative reciprocal (flipped and opposite signs); this makes it -1/2. Using point-slope form,

$y-0=\frac{-1}{2}(x-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}(x)+\frac{-1}{2}(-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}$

#4) The slope of Main Street on the diagram, found by using rise/run, is 2. This means the bike path will also have a slope of 2 in order to be parallel. The park entrance is at (0, 4). This makes the equation y = 2x+4.

#5) Two lines with the same slope are always parallel. They are never perpendicular.

Use the distributive property to find the value of x.

noname [10]

Answer:

The value of x = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-1.2(3 – x) = -1.8

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

Distributive property:

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

For example A(B + C) = A×B + A×C

Here we have,

-1.2(3 – x) = -1.8

Applying Distributive property we get ,

-1.2×3 -1.2×-x = -1.8

∴ -3.6 +1.2x = -1.8

∴ $1.2x =3.6-1.8\\\\1.2x=1.8\\\\x=\frac{1.8}{1.2} \\\textrm{multiply numerator and denominator by 10}\\x=\frac{1.8\times 10}{1.2\times 10}\\ \\x=\frac{18}{12} \\\\\\x= 1.5$

∴ x = 1.5
