If you wanna find out if 2 lines are parallel you should compare the slopes. Pick two points XY to find the slope. Then put it into the formula y2 minus y1 divided by x2 minus x1. Then calculate the slope of both lines, if they are the same then the lines are parallel.

Answer:

To figure out if 2 lines are parallel, compare their slopes. You can find the slope of a line by picking 2 points with XY coordinates, then put those coordinates into the formula Y2 minus Y1 divided by X2 minus X1. Calculate the slope of both lines. If they are the same, then the lines are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cedarville

Year 1

1200 * 8% = 96 people

At the end the population is 1296

Year 2

1296 * 7% =90.72

1296+90.72 =1386.72 people

Pinedale

1200*15%=180

1200+180 = 1380

Cedarville has more people at the end of 2 years by 6.72 people

Find the slope of the line that passes through (40,3000) and (60, 4000).

iragen [17]

Answer:

$m=50$

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Alg</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

<u>Algebra I</u>

Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Point (40, 3000)

Point (60, 4000)

<u>Step 2: Find slope </u><em><u>m</u></em>

Substitute: $m=\frac{4000-3000}{60-40}$
Subtract: $m=\frac{1000}{20}$
Divide: $m=50$

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-4, -2) and (8, 1)? Put your answer in fully reduced form.

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

y=1/4x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(1-(-2))/(8-(-4))

m=(1+2)/(8+4)

m=3/12

m=1/4

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=1/4(x-(-4))

y+2=1/4(x+4)

y=1/4x+4/4-2

y=1/4x+1-2

y=1/4x-1

What is the value of the fourth term in a geometric sequence for which a1 = 30 and r = 1/2?

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: The required fourth term of the geometric sequence is $\dfrac{10}{9}.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of the fourth term in a geometric sequence with first term and common ratio as follows :

$a(1)=30,~~~~~r=\dfrac{1}{2}.$

We know that

the n-th term of a geometric sequence with first term a1 and common ratio r given by

$a(n)=a(1)r^{n-1}.$

Therefore, the fourth term of the given geometric sequence will be

$a(4)=a(1)r^{4-1}=30\times r^3=30\times\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)^3=\dfrac{30}{27}=\dfrac{10}{9}.$

Thus, the required fourth term of the geometric sequence is $\dfrac{10}{9}.$
