Answer:

y=\frac{3}{4}x-22

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • The equation of a line 6x-2y=4+6y
  • A point (8, -16)

We are required to determine the equation of a line parallel to the given line and passing through the given point.

  • One way we can determine the equation of a line is when we are given its slope and a point where it is passing through,

First we get the slope of the line from the equation given;

  • We write the equation in the form y = mx + c, where m is the slope

That is;

6x-2y=4+6y

6y + 2y = 6x-4

8y = 6x -4

We get, y = 3/4 x - 4

Therefore, the slope, m₁ = 3/4

But; for parallel lines m₁=m₂

Therefore, the slope of the line in question, m₂ = 3/4

To get the equation of the line;

We take a point (x, y) and the point (8, -16) together with the slope;

That is;

\frac{(y--16}{x-8}=\frac{3}{4}

4(y+16)=3(x-8)\\4y + 64 = 3x - 24\\4y=3x-88\\ y=\frac{3}{4}x-22

Thus, the equation required is y=\frac{3}{4}x-22

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation: slope = "rise over run" = 1.5/18 = 3/36 = 1/12 for the 1st section to the landing

slope is the change in height, the vertical change, divided by the change in horizontal distance

2nd section has slope 1/18 and covers 9 feet. That means it rises 1/2 foot

slope = 1/18 = (1/2)/9  

the door is 2 feet higher than the ground level,  1.5 + .5 = 2 feet change vertically

Solve the inequality:
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

x >_ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving an inequality is a lot like solving an equation. Just pretend the inequality symbol is an equal sign!

(also i wont be using the _ or equal to symbol because I'm too lazy, so you'll get >_ or <_ for those, sorry)

8 + 4x >_ 12

-8             -8

4x >_ 4

/4       /4

x >_ 1
