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

What equation is perpendicular to y=2x-3 and<br> passes through (-1, 2)?
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

\[y=-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}\]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the given line: \[y=2x-3\]

Slope of the line = \[2\]

Slope of the perpendicular line = \[-\frac{1}{2}\]

So the equation of the perpendicular line:

\[y=-\frac{1}{2}x+c\]

This passes through the point (-1,2).Substituting in the equation:

\[2=-\frac{1}{2}*(-1)+c\]

=> \[c=2+\frac{1}{2}\]

=> \[c=\frac{5}{2}\]

So the equation of the line :

\[y=-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}\]

Assume a student shows up for EGR 280 completely unprepared and the instructor gives a pop quiz. Assume there are 6 questions, e
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

P=20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose that each question in the test has one and only one correct answer. This means we have 1 desired outcome out of the total 5 desired outcomes. Therefore:

Probability=#of desired outcomes / #of possible outcomes

or

P=\frac{1 correct}{5 opctions}

P=\frac{1}{5}

P=0.20

P=20%

Which of the following is not a function?
stepladder [879]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

d is not a function because if you do the vertical test for d

the line goes through it twice and if it goes through it twice it means it's not a function, D did not pass the vertical test

I put two pictures so you can see the difference. it shows you if it passed the vertical tesft or not. if you do not know abt the vertical test, you will learn abt it soon. a vertical test is very helpful to find out if it is a function or not. THE VERTICAL TEST CAN ONLY BE USED ON GRAPHS nothing more. I hope I helped.
