(6 + 7) + 8 = 21

Mathematics

Answer: $6+(7+8)=21$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, the associative property of addition is:

$(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)$

This property says that you can group the numbers in different ways and you will obtain the same result.

2. Therefore, if you have the following expression:

$(6+7)+8=21$

You apply the Asociative property of addition by regrouping the numbers as following:

$6+(7+8)=21$

3. Then, you can conclude that the correct option is B.

Through: (-5, -3), perp. to y=-9/4x-5

Mrrafil [7]

Given:

A line passes through (-5,-3) and perpendicular to $y=-\dfrac{9}{4}x-5$ .

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

We have,

$y=-\dfrac{9}{4}x-5$

On comparing this equation with slope intercept form, i.e., $y=mx+b$ , we get

$m_2=-\dfrac{9}{4}$

It means, slope of this line is $-\dfrac{9}{4}$ .

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is always -1.

$m_1\times m_2=-1$

$m_1 \times \left(-\dfrac{9}{4}\right)=-1$

$m_1=\dfrac{4}{9}$

Slope of required line is $\dfrac{4}{9}$ and it passes through the point (-5,-3). So, the equation of the line is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

where, m is slope.

$y-(-3)=\dfrac{4}{9}(x-(-5))$

$y+3=\dfrac{4}{9}(x+5)$

$9(y+3)=4(x+5)$

$9y+27=4x+20$

$27-20=4x-9y$

$7=4x-9y$

Therefore, the equation of required line is $4x-9y=7$ .

5) through (-2, -3) and (0,1)<br>Slope-Intercept:<br>Standard Form:

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Slope = 2

y-intercept = 1

x-intercept = -0.5

Standard Form ⇒ y - 2x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

write the equation of the line through (-2 , -3) and (0,1)

The general form of the line is y = mx + c

Where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

The slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (1 - [-3])/(0 - [-2]) = 4/2 = 2

∴ y = 2x + c

By substitution with the point (0,1) to find c

1 = 2 *0 + c

c = 1

∴ y = 2x + 1

Or y - 2x = 1 ⇒Standard Form

Also,

See the attached figure which represents the graph of the line y - 2x = 1

can anyone help me with these? I'm having a lot of trouble and I'm extremely behind... I need to catch up badly!!! i have been a

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 and 6 are the same, so I will do one of those and you can use the example to do the other one.

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. If we have 2 points and nothing else, we can use those 2 points in the slope formula to find the slope (the m value in the equation) and then plug that in with either one of the points to get the equation. The slope formula is:

$m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

Using our points in question 5: (2, 4) (5, 4)

$m=\frac{4-4}{5-2} =\frac{0}{3}=0$ So m = 0. Now pick a point and use it in the equation along with the m value to solve for b. I will use (2, 4):

4 = 0(2)+b and

4 = 0 + b so

b = 4.

Now we have m = 0 and b = 4 so we fill in the equation with that info:

y = 0x + 4 or simplifying,

y = 4

For question 7 they want the line parallel to y = 3x + 6 that goes through (-10, 2.5). For a line to be parallel to another line, their slopes have to be identical. The slope in y = 3x + 6 is 3. So the slope of the "new" line is going to be 3 as well. Now we will use that slope and the given point to solve for b, just like in #5:

2.5 = 3(-10) + b and

2.5 = -30 + b so

b = 32.5

Now we will fill in:

y = 3x + 32.5

For question 8 they want the line perpendicular to y = -4x - 2 that goes through (-16, -11). For a line to be perpendicular to another line, their slopes have to be opposite reciprocals. Opposite meaning the sign is opposite (positive becomes negative and negative becomes positive), and reciprocal meaning the fraction is flipped upside down. The slope in our line is -4. That means that the perpendicular slope is positive 1/4. Using that along with our point, we will again solve for b:

$-11=\frac{1}{4}(-16)+b$ which simplifies to

-11 = -4 + b so

b = -7

Now we fill in:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x-7$

For question 8, in order to find the line parallel to the given line, you need to know the slope. In the form it is currently in, we do not know the slope. We need to put it into slope-intercept form to find the slope, then we will proceeed as above. If

x + 4y = 6, then

4y = -x + 6 and, dividing by 4,

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{3}{2}$
