Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line with points; (2, 5) (3, 8).

1. Find the slope of the given line

The formula for finding the slope is:

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

Substitute in the values;

$x_{1} = 2\\y_{1} = 5\\x_{2} = 3\\y_{2} = 8$

$\frac{8-5}{3-2}$

simplify;

$\frac{3}{1}$

= 3

2. Find the slope of the parallel line;

Remember, when two lines are parallel, they run alongside each other, of infinitely long, but they never touch. Hence two parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of a line that is parallel to the given one will also have the same slope as the given one, which is 3.

Find the unpaid balance on the debt after 5 years of monthly payments on $190,000 at 3% for 25 years

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

$114,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Use formula

$I=P\cdot r\cdot t,$

where

I = interst

P = principal

r = rate

t = time

First, find the interst for 25 years:

I = unknown

P = $190,000

r = 0.03 (3% as decimal)

t = 25

$I_{25}=190,000\cdot 0.03\cdot 25=142,500$

Now find the interest for 5 years:

I = unknown

P = $190,000

r = 0.03 (3% as decimal)

t = 5

$I_5=190,000\cdot 0.03\cdot 5=28,500$

The unpaid balance is

$I=I_{25}-I_5=142,500-28,500=114,000$

Convert a speed of 651 mi/hr to units of feet per minute. also show the unit analysis by dragging components into the unit-facto

ladessa [460]

We know that 60 minutes = 1 hour and 1 mile = 5280 feet. We just need to multiply and simplify:

651 miles/hour = 651 *5280/60 feet/minutes = 651*88 feet/minutes = 57288 feet/minutes
