A city planner is rerouting traffic in order to work on a stretch of road. The equation of the path of the old route can be desc

ribed as y = two fifthsx − 4. What should the equation of the new route be if it is to be parallel to the old route and will go through point (Q, P)? ay − Q = negative five halves(x − P) by − Q = two fifths(x − P) cy − P = negative five halves(x − Q) dy − P = two fifths(x − Q)

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)

What is the value of the interquartile range of the data below? A box-and-whisker plot. The number line goes from 0 to 52. The w
Softa [21]

Answer:

The interquartile range is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a box-and-whisker plot, the left edge of the box is the lower quartile and the right edge of the box is the upper quartile. The line dividing the box is the median. The end of the left whisker shows the minimum value. The end of the right whisker shows the maximum value.

In your question, the lower quartile is 29, the upper quartile is 41, while the median is 32. The minimum value is 10 and the maximum value is 51.

The formula for the interquartile range is as follows:

Interquartile Range = Upper quartile - Lower quartile

In this question, interquartile range = 41 - 29 which equals 12. Hence, the answer is 12.

5 Simple Algerba 2 Questions.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

See below for answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Parent functions are essentially non-transformed functions, so y=x^2 would be the parent function of y=x^2+1 for example since y=x^2 has no transformations while y=x^2+1 does.

2) Since certain x-values won't be defined for the function, you need to restrict the domain. For example, in the function f(x)=1/x, obviously x=0 is undefined for the function, so we would need to restrict the domain.

3) Not sure what you mean by name graph; no context given

4) Also no context given

5) The equation would be y=(x+5)^4-3

Find the vertex of the parabola whose equation is y = x2 + 8x + 12.
lara31 [8.8K]
We will transform the equation to the vertex form:
y = x² + 8 x + 12 = x² + 8 x + 16 - 16 + 12 =
= ( x + 4 )² - 4
Vertex form is: y = a ( x - k )² + h
Vertex coordinates are: ( - 4, - 4 ).
