The modern world is said to be “shrinking” or “flattening” through the process of globalization. What do you think this means? I
Ronch [10]

<u>Answer</u>:

Globalisation makes the world shrink and flatten it in all sectors.

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the ancient and medival world, only labours were allowed to travel between the countries. IT revolution paves its way for the jobs to be exchanged between the countries and it leads to service growth in the developing countries.

After social media's tremendous growth, information gets transferred easily through various social media platforms. Knowledge and technology transfer between the countries generates more employment even in the under developed areas. India gained a generous amount of software and BPO jobs from the developed countries to increase their GDP since 1990s.

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 3, negative 3) and (negative 1, 5). What is the equation of the line parall
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

y=4x-16

Explanation:

The general form of the equation of a line is: y=mx+x, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Given points  (-3,-3) and (-1,5)

We are to find the equation of the line parallel to the given line with an x-intercept of 4.

First, we determine the value of the gradient of the line.

Gradient,

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\=\frac{5-(-3)}{-1-(-3)} \\=\frac{5+3}{-1+3}\\=\frac{8}{2}\\m=4

Two lines are parallel if their gradients m_1 \: and \: m_2 are equal.

The gradient of the line parallel to the given line m_2=4

Since the x-intercept of the new line is 4, a point on the new line, (x_1,y_1)=(4,0)

Substituting (x_1,y_1)=(4,0) into the equation of a line: , y-y_1=m(x-x_1),we have:

y-0=4(x-4)\\$Therefore:\\y=4x-16

Therefore, the equation of the line is: y=4x-16
