What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (5, −4) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x + 5y = 10?

What you should do first is simplify the equation into the y = mx + b format. Move 2x to the other side. Know that in doing this, 2x must become the opposite of what it currently is (-2) in order for the equation to remain true. We also have to take away the '10' because the line is parallel, not exactly the same, which means a different y intercept. This looks like:

5y = -2x + b

Next, simplify y to make things easier. This can be done by dividing both sides by 5, like so:

\frac{5}{5}y = -\frac{2}{5}x + b

What you should also know is that if a line is parallel to another, then this means the slope has to be the same because they both have the same changes in rise and run. With this in mind, simply plug in the x and y values.

(-4) = -\frac{2}{5} * (5) + b

--> -4 = \frac{10}{5} + b

---> -4 = -2 + b

Add 2 to both sides to isolate b.

-4 + 2 = b

Which means that -2 = b.

Now that we have the y intercept, we can write the equation of the line, which is y = -\frac{2}{5}x - 2.

Hope this was helpful.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

  • 112.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum is achieved at vertex of parabola.

The x- coordinate of the vertex is determined by x = - b/(2a).

  • x = - 15/(-0.5*2) = 15

The maximum height is the corresponding y- coordinate

  • y = - 0.5(15²) + 15(15) = 112.5 ft

Here is a tunnel for a toy train.
jonny [76]

The <em>total</em> area of all six faces of the tunnel is 614.197\pi square centimeters.

<h2>Procedure - Surface area of a tunnel for a toy train</h2>

The surface area of the solid (A) used to represent the tunnel for a toy train is the sum of its six faces (two <em>semicircular</em> sections, inner <em>semicircular</em> arc section, outer <em>semicircular</em> arc section, two rectangles).

<h3>Determination of the surface area of the tunnel based on information of the diagram</h3>

We calculate the surface area as following:

A = 2\cdot \frac{\pi}{2} \cdot [(10\,cm)^{2}-(8\,cm)^{2}] + \pi\cdot (8\,cm)\cdot (30\,cm) + \pi\cdot (10\,cm)\cdot (30\,cm) + 2\cdot (2\,cm)\cdot (30\,cm)

A = 614.197\pi\,cm^{2}

The <em>total</em> area of all six faces of the tunnel is 614.197\pi square centimeters. \blacksquare
