You're given the slope of the line and a point thru which the line passes.  So it makes sense to use the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:  if the point is (a,b) and the slope is m, then 

y-b=m(x-a).  You'd then solve this for y to obtain the equation in slope-intercept form.

On the other hand, if you're asked to write the equation in slope-intercept form, starting with the general form of this equation may be faster:  y=mx+b.

Substitute the given values for x and y (which are 25 and -9) and m (which is (2/5).  Solve the resulting equation for b (the y-intercept).

Then write the finished equation:  y=( ? )x + b, where b is the y-intercept you've just found.

A parking space shaped like a parallelogram has a base of 17 feet and a height of 9 feet if a mini car 6 feet long and five feet
lesantik [10]

Answer:

123 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to know how exactly to find the area of a parallelogram.

<u>Area</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>parallelogram</u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>Base</u><u>*</u><u>Height</u>

PARALLELOGRAM-

BASE= 17 ft

HEIGHT= 9ft

AREA= 17*9= 153 cm²

The area of parallelogram, will be considered as WHOLE AREA.

Now,

AREA OF MINI CAR-

length= 6 ft

Width= 5 ft

Area= 6*5= 30 ft ²

Square feet uncovere-

153 ft²- 30 ft²= 123 ft²

Can someone please help me with these questions!! Thanks,

6a. 1 - 2sin(x)² - 2cos(x)² = 1 - 2(sin(x)² +cos(x)²) = 1 - 2·1 = -1

6c. tan(x) + sin(x)/cos(x) = tan(x) + tan(x) = 2tan(x)

6e. 3sin(x) + tan(x)cos(x) = 3sin(x) + (sin(x)/cos(x))cos(x) = 3sin(x) +sin(x) = 4sin(x)

6g. 1 - cos(x)²tan(x)² = 1 - cos(x)²·(sin(x)²)/cos(x)²) = 1 -sin(x)² = cos(x)²

Micah invested $3450 in an account paying simple interest. At the end of 6 years, the value of
tatuchka [14]
Answer: 2.5%

3967.50 - 3450 = 517. 50

i = prt/100

i = 517.50, p = 3450, t = 6

517.50 = 3450 x r x 6/ 100

517.50 = 20700r/100

517.50 = 20700r

517.50/20700 = r

r = 0.025 = 2.5%
