Remark
This is costing you an awful lot of points, but it is a little hard to read. If I'm not interpreting it correctly, leave some sort of note below my answer.

Question One
In the first question you want a line that is parallel to x = 4 and goes through the point (-7,3). If I'm reading this correctly then the line you want is x = -7. You only need the x value of the given point. I'll put a graph there to show you what it looks like on a grid.  The graph is the left one for this question.

Question Two
Here I think you want the line going through (5,-1) and perpendicular to y = 4x - 7. I will make a graph for that one as well.

Begin with the slope
Two lines are perpendicular to each other if their slopes multiply to - 1
Given slope (m1) = 4
perpendicular slope = m2

Formula
m1 * m2 = - 1
4 * m2 = -1      Divide by 4
m2 = -1/4

So far what you have is
y = (-1/4)x + b

Now use the given point to solve for b
x = 5
y = - 1
b = ??

-1 = (-1/4)*5 + b
-1 = -5/4 + b  Add 5/4 to both sides
-1 + 5/4 + b   Make -1 into -4/4
b = -4/4 + 5/4
b = (-4 + 5)/4
b = 1/4

So the line that you want is
y = (-1/4) x + 1/4

Answers
One:  x = - 7
Two: y = (-1/4)x + 1/4

Note
The right graph is of y = 4x - 7 and y = (-1/4)x + 1/4

Two angles are complementary. The first angle is 2x degrees. The second angle is (3x +5) degrees. Determine the measure of each
bixtya [17]

Answer:

70 and 110

Step-by-step explanation:

First angle -- 2x

Second angle -- 3x + 5

Therefore,

2x + 3x + 5 = 180

5x = 175

x = 35

Therefore, 2x -- 70

3x + 5 -------------110

Please answer quickly!!!
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 13y = 232

12x + 7y = 218

For each choice:

a) The first equation can be multiplied by –13 and the second equation by 7 to eliminate y. So we have

- 65x - 169y = - 3016

84x + 49y = 1526

Can not eliminate x and y.

b) The first equation can be multiplied by 7 and the second equation by 13 to eliminate y. So we have

35x  + 91 y = 1624

156x + 91y = 2834

Can not eliminate x and y if we ADD.

<em>(If we subtract, this is Yes)</em>

<em></em>

c) The first equation can be multiplied by –12 and the second equation by 5 to eliminate x.

-60x - 156y = - 2784

60x + 35y = 1090

The answer is YES

d) The first equation can be multiplied by 5 and the second equation by 12 to eliminate x.

25x + 65y = 1160

144x + 84y = 2616

Can not eliminate x and y

The final answer is C

Find the slope, Y-intercept, and equation (make sure there is no decimals if there is a decimal make it into a fraction)!
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Slope is 5/3

y-intercept = -3

y = 5/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, take to coordinates and use the equation below

m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

7-2 = 5

6-3= 3

Now you have your slope which is 5/3

Then take the slope and input it into point slope form to get your y-intercept.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

y-2 = 5/3(x-3)

y-2=5/3x-5

add two to both sides to get Y by itself

y = 5/3x - 3

now you have your y-intercept, which is -3

Then check your answer by inputing two different coordinates for X and Y

7 = 5/3(6)-3

7=7

12= 5/3(9)-3

12=12
