Write the equation of a line that is parallel to the following: 1. x = 5 2. y = -3

Mathematics
1 answer:
sineoko [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1.  x=6

2.  y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

If x=5, the line is vertical, so we need a vertical line so that we are parallel.  A vertical line is x= a constant

We can choose the value for x as long as it is not 5, that would make it the same line.  I will choose x=6

If y=-3=5, the line is horizontal, so we need a horizontal line so that we are parallel.  A horizontal line is y= constant

We can choose the value for y as long as it is not -3, that would make it the same line.  I will choose y=2

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7x+6}{2}\leq 3x+2 < ==multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\2(\frac{7x+6}{2}\leq 3x+2)\\\\7x+6\leq6x+4 < ==subtract\ -6x\ from\ both\ sides\ \\-6x \ \ -6x\\\\x+6\leq4 < ==subtract\ 6\ from\ both\ sides\\-6 \ \ \ -6\\\\x\leq-2 < ==answer\ should\ be\ anything\ less\ than\ or\ equal\ to\ -2

Now, look at your answer choices, which options are less than or equal to -2?

x ≤ -2, Check your answers:

A. -3 ≤ -2?

This statement is correct (-3 is < -2)

B. -2 ≤ -2 <== our original answer

This statement is correct (-2 is = to -2)

C. -1 ≤ -2

This statement is incorrect (-1 is > -2, not ≤ -2)

D. 0 ≤ -2

This statement is incorrect (0 is > -2, not ≤ -2)

E. 1 < -2

This statement is incorrect (1 is > -2, not ≤ -2)

Therefore, the correct options are A and B

Hope this helps!

The stock market dropped 220 points on Monday. It lost another 48 points on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, it gained 96 points. What
MissTica

48 points gained in those 3 days.

Subtract 220 with 48, then add 96. Last step would be subtracting 220 with the amount they have now in those 3 days to find how much points the stock market gained in those 3 days.

Subtract 220-48.It‘ll be 172.

Add 172 with 96. 172+96=268.

Subtract 268 with how much points the stock market had 3 days ago. 268-220.

Sot eh stock market gained 48 points in 3 days.
