Answer: D

Explanation:

The equation of a line in the point slope form is expressed as

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where

m represents slope

x1 and y1 represents coordinates of the point that the line passes.

From the information given, the equation of the path of the old route is

y = 2x/5 - 4

Recall, the equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

By comparing both equations,

slope, m = 2/5

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Given that the new route is to be parallel to the old route and will go through point (Q, P), then

m = 2/5

x1 = Q

y1 = P

The equation of the new route be

y - P = 2/5(x - Q)

Find the Solution of 2cos^2x + 3sin x =0
Evgen [1.6K]
2cos^2 x + 3sin x = 0
2(1 - sin^2 x) + 3sin x = 0
2 - 2sin^2 x + 3sin x = 0
2sin^2 x - 3sin x - 2 = 0

Let sin x = m, then
2m^2 - 3m - 2 = 0
2m^2 + m - 4m - 2 = 0
m(2m + 1) - 2(2m + 1) = 0
(m - 2)(2m + 1) = 0
m = 2 or m = -1/2

Now, sin x = -1/2
Therefore, x = 1/6(12nπ - π) and 1/6(12nπ + 7π)

Hi! Could you help me me out and solve these two problems? "eight less than the product of seven and xxx", and "the sum of six a
Ann [662]

Given:

The given statement are:

a. Eight less than the product of seven and x.

b. The sum of six and the product of three and d.

To find:

The expression for the given statements.

Solution:

a.

Product of 7 and x is 7×x = 7x.

Eight less than the product of seven and x is 7x - 8.

Therefore, the required expression for the statement "Eight less than the product of seven and x" is 7x-8.

b.

Product of 3 and d is 3×d = 3d.

The sum of six and the product of three and d is 6+3d.

Therefore, the required expression for the statement "The sum of six and the product of three and d" is 6+3d.

Solve each proportion.<br> 2/4=4/p-3<br>pls help​
eduard

Answer:

p=\frac{8}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{4} = \frac{4}{p} - 3

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{p} - 3 (simplify)

\frac{1}{2}+3 = \frac{4}{p} - 3+3

\frac{1}{2}+3 = \frac{4}{p} (Add 3 to both sides)

\frac{7}{2}= \frac{4}{p} (simplify)

\frac{7}{2}p= \frac{4}{p}*p

\frac{7p}{2}=4 (Multiply both sides by p)

\frac{7p}{2}*2=4*2

7p=8 (Multiply both sides by 2)

\frac{7p}{7}=\frac{8}{7}

p=\frac{8}{7} (Divide both sides by 7)
