Answer:

y = \frac{1}{3}x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Solve for y in the first equation</u>

3y - x = -12

3y - x + x = -12 + x

\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{x}{3} - \frac{12}{3}

y = \frac{1}{3}x - 4

<u>Step 2:  Determine the important aspects</u>

We know that our line is parallel to the other line that has a slope of 1/3 which means that our slope is also going to be 1/3.  We also know that our line crosses the point (18, 2) which means that we can use the point slope form to determine our equation

Point Slope Form → (y-y_1) = m(x - x_1)

<u>Step 3:  Plug in the information and solve</u>

(y-2) = \frac{1}{3}(x - 18)

y - 2 = \frac{1}{3}x - 6

y - 2 + 2 = \frac{1}{3}x - 6 + 2

y = \frac{1}{3}x-4

Answer: y = \frac{1}{3}x-4

Which expression is equivalent to −19y+13 ?
Vikki [24]
The first thing you should do in this case is to write the expression correctly:
 - (1/9) y + (1/3)
 Now, we take out common factor (1/9) obtaining:
 1/9 (-y + 3)
 Let's check:
 1/9 (-y + 3)
 -1/9y + 3/9
 -1/9y + 1/3
 OK
  Answer: 
 An expression equivalent is: 
 1/9 (-y + 3)

We are given the length of AC and AB to be 20 and 6, respectively, so we can subtract 6 from 20 to find BC to be 14 cm.

The circumference of a circle is equal to 2 \pi r

C=2 \pi (14) = 28 \pi

The answer is approximately 87.96 cm
