A line, y mx + b, passes through the point (2, 3) and is parallel to y 2x + 5. What is the value of b?​

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is parallel to another it must have the same slope

The slope/intercept form of a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b the y intercept

The line y = 2x + 5 has slope 2

So the slope of the line that passes through (2,3) must also have the slope 2

We have
y = 2x + b; Substituting x =2, y =3 in this equation gives us
3 = 2 (2) + b or b = -1

Hence the equation of the line is
y = 2x -1

Cross-check

Substitute for x = 2 ==> y = 2(2) - 1 = 3 which is consistent

Find the surface area of the right rectangular prism shown below.<br> units?<br> 2.5<br> -
Mrrafil [7]

Answer: Surface area = 46 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the total surface area of a rectangular prism is expressed as

Surface area = 2LW + 2LH + 2WH

Where

L represents the length of the rectangular prism.

W represents the width of the rectangular prism.

H represents the height of the rectangular prism.

Looking at the diagram,

L = 4 units

W = 2.5 units

H = 2 units

Therefore,

Surface area = (2 × 4 × 2.5) + (2 × 4 × 2) + (2 × 2.5 × 2)

= 20 + 16 + 10

= 46 units²

Robert gets a loan from his bank.
masya89 [10]

Answer:

£10200

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount borrowed (P) = £6000

Rate of interest (R) = 7%

Time (T) = 10 years

First, let us calculate the simple interest (SI) for 10 years.

Formula for simple interest is given as:

S.I.=\frac{PRT}{100}

Plugging the values of P, R and T in the above formula, we find:

S.I.=\frac{6000(7)(10)}{100}

S.I.= £4200

Total money paid back at the end of the 10 years

= £6000 + £4200

= £10200
