Parallel to : y = 1/2x - 8

Passes through (-6, -17)

Our given slope is 1/2.

Plug the given coordinates into point-slope form.

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-17) = 1/2(x - (-6))

Simplify.

y + 17 = 1/2(x + 6)  ← Your answer.

However, sometimes teachers want this simplified even further.

So, simplify this.

y + 17 = 1/2x + 3

Subtract 17 from both sides.

y = 1/2x + 3 - 17

Simplify.

y = 1/2x - 14 ← Slope-intercept form.

Standard form → -1/2x + y = -14

A large box of jelly beans weighs 96.58 lb the jelly beans are evenly divided into 22 bags what is the weight in pounds of the j
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The weight in each bag is 4.39lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you simply need to divide 96.58 by 22. The reason you do this is so that way you can divide all of the weight into 22 bags.

96.58 ÷ 22 = 4.39

This means that the weight in each bag is 4.39lb.

Bumek [7]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

29/28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with:

\frac{1}{4} + \frac{2}{7} + \frac{1}{2} =

Begin by finding a common denominator. A number that contains all of the denominators as a factor would be 28. Change each fraction to contain a denominator of 28:

\frac{7}{28} + \frac{8}{28} + \frac{14}{28} =

Add the fractions:

\frac{7}{28} + \frac{8}{28} + \frac{14}{28} = \frac{29}{28}

Therefore, the fractions sum up to 29/28.

Answer:

The answer is the third equation. A = 250*(1 +0.016)^(0.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Javier deposited $250 into an account with annual interest rate, then as the years passes his account will grow in the manner shown below:

account(0) = 250

account(1) = account(0)*(1 + 1.6/100) = account(0)*(1 + 0.016) = account(0)*1.016

account(2) = account(1)*1.016 = account(0)*1.016*1.016 = account(0)*(1.016)²

account(3) = account(2)*1.016 = account(0)*(1.016)²*1.016 = account(0)*(1.016)³

account(n) = account(0)*(1.016)^n

Where n is the number of years, account(0) is the initial amount. In this case only 9 months have passed, so we need to convert this value to years, dividing it by 12, which is 9/12 = 0.75. The initial amount was 250, so the equation is:

A = 250*(1.016)^(0.75)

The answer is the third equation.

Complete the following sentence with a power of ten greater than 1. A kilometer is times as large as a millimeter. Click on the
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

A kilometer is 10⁶ times as large as a millimeter.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the metric system first we have: millimeter, centimeter, decimeter and meter. Each one of these is 10 times the other (1 centimeter is 10 millimeter, 1 decimeter is 10 centimeter, 1 meter is 10 decimeter). Therefore, 1 meter is 10x10x10 millimeter = 1 meter is 1000 millimeters.

But we know that 1 km is 1000 meters,

Therefore, 1 km = 1000 meter = 1, 000,000 milimeter = 10⁶ milimeter

So then, we have that 1 kilometer is 10⁶ as large as a milimeter.
