Answer:

$\bold{a=5\,,\quad b=-4\frac27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5+\frac{2\sqrt3}7+4\sqrt3=5+\frac27\sqrt3+4\sqrt3=5+4\frac27\sqrt3=5-(-4\frac27)\sqrt3$

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line.

romanna [79]

<u>(Note: this answer is assuming that the equation has to be put in slope-intercept format.)</u>

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{2} x - \frac{5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Let's use the point-slope formula to determine what the answer would be. To do that though, we would need two things: the slope and a point that the equation would cross through. We already have the point it would cross through, (-3,-4), based on the given information. So, in the next step, let's find the slope.

2) We know that the slope has to be parallel to the given line, $y = \frac{1}{2}x - 8$ . Remember that slopes that are parallel have the same slope - so, let's simply take the slope from the given equation. Since it's already in slope-intercept form, we know that the slope then must be $\frac{1}{2}$ .

3) Finally, let's put the slope we found and the x and y values from (-3, -4) into the point-slope formula and solve:

$(y- (-4)) = \frac{1}{2} (x - (-3))\\y + 4 = \frac{1}{2} (x + 3))\\y + 4 = \frac{1}{2}x+ \frac{3}{2} \\y = \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{3}{2} - 4\\y = \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{3}{2} - \frac{8}{2} \\y = \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{5}{2}$
