Write an equation of the line that passes through (18,2) and is parallel to the line 3y-x=-12 .

Mathematics

Xelga [282]2 years ago

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

Part A: x = -5/4, 3 || (-5/4, 0) (3, 0)

To find the x-intercepts, we need to know where y is equal to 0. So, we will set the function equal to 0 and solve for x.

4x^2 - 7x - 15 = 0

4 x 15 = 60 || -12 x 5 = 60 || -12 + 5 = -7

4x^2 - 12x + 5x - 15 = 0

4x(x - 3) + 5(x - 3) = 0

(4x + 5)(x - 3) = 0

4x + 5 = 0

x = -5/4

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

Part B: minimum, (7/8, -289/16)

The vertex of the graph will be a minimum. This is because the parabola is positive, meaning that it opens to the top.

To find the coordinates of the parabola, we start with the x-coordinate. The x-coordinate can be found using the equation -b/2a.

b = -7

a = 4

x = -(-7) / 2(4) = 7/8

Now that we know the x-value, we can plug it into the function and solve for the y-value.

y = 4(7/8)^2 - 7(7/8) - 15

y = 4(49/64) - 49/8 - 15

y = 196/64 - 392/64 - 960/64

y = -1156/64 = -289/16 = -18 1/16

Part C:

First, start by graphing the vertex. Then, use the x-intercepts and graph those. At this point we should have three points in a sort of triangle shape. If we did it right, each of the x-values will be an equal distance from the vertex. After we have those points graphed, it is time to draw in the parabola. Knowing that the parabola is positive, we draw in a U shape that passes through each of the three points and opens toward the top of the coordinate grid.

Hope this helps!

What is the simplified form of the expression?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

7c^2d-7c+4d-10

Step-by-step explanation:

Start off with the term that has c^2 in it. 5c^2d + 2C = 7c^2d, then since you have multiple choice, the d value differs between the two answer choices that have 7c^2d so you can do +3d +d to get +4d to get the fourth answer choice.

To check your work, you can add/subtract each term to see if you get 7c^2d-7c+4d-10
