What is the equation of a line parallel to y=1/2×+6 that passes through (-4,1)

Mathematics

IgorC [24]2 years ago
5 0

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{1}{2}}x+6\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/2 and passes through (-4 , 1)

(\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m} ~=~ \cfrac{1}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{ \cfrac{1}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-4)}) \\\\\\ y-1=\cfrac{1}{2}(x+4)\implies y-1=\cfrac{1}{2}x+2\implies y=\cfrac{1}{2}x+3

A framing company is putting out a new product this summer. The width of the frame will be uniform all the way around. The desig
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Correct option: Fourth one -> 2.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The inside of the frame is 10 cm by 8 cm. To find the whole frame, we need to add two times the width of the metal to each dimension, so the final dimension is 10+2x cm by 8+2x cm.

The area of the frame itself is the area with the bigger dimensions (10+2x and 8+2x) minus the inside area (80 cm2)

If the final area is 100 cm2, we have that:

Area = (10+2x) * (8+2x) - 80

100 = 80 + 36x + 4x2 - 80

4x2 + 36x -100 = 0

x2 + 9x - 25 = 0

Using Bhaskara's formula to solve the quadratic function, we have:

Delta = 81 + 4*25 = 181

sqrt(Delta) = 13.45

x1 = (-9 + 13.45)/2 = 2.225 cm

x2 = (-9 - 13.45)/2 = -11.225 cm (not a valid measurement)

So the width x of the metal is 2.2 cm

Correct option: Fourth one

7. ​Jack and Max share some counters. Jack has 3 times as many counters as Max.
FrozenT [24]
To answer this item, we let x be the number of counters that Max has. By the representation, the number of counters that Jack has is 3x. 

a. Ratio of counters,
                               3x:x 
which can be simplified by dividing by x both sides of the ratio giving us the answer of, 
                               3:1

b. Fraction of counters Max have,
                                fraction = x / (x + 3x) = 1/4
