Answer:

B - y = 2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: find slope

2x + 4y = 6

4y = -2x + 6

Make y the subject of the formula

y =( -2x + 6)/4

We can separate to get the slope

y = -2x/4 + 6/4

y = -x/2 + 3/2

Slope m = -1/2

Step 2: using a point slope form equation

y - y1 = m ( x - x1)

Note: if two lines are perpendicular to the other, it is always a negative reciprocal of each other

ie m = 2

Substitute m into the equation

y - y1 = 2(x - x1)

Step 3: sub the point

( 6 , 4)

x1 = 6

y1 = 4

y - 4 = 2( x - 6)

Step 4 : using a slope intercept form equation

Open the bracket

y - 4 = 2x - 12

y = 2x - 12 + 4

y = 2x - 8

The equation of a line is

y = 2x - 8

I really dont understand this question, help? i dont need steps or anything
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

135 degrees is an exterior angle. meaning the interior angle is 45. meaning x is 45 because of the isosceles triangle theorem that states if two sides are equal on a triangle then their angles opposite those are congruent. a triangle measures up to 180 in general. so 45 plus 45 is 90. 180 minus 90 is 90. so angle x is 45 and angle y is 90

How can I figure out this math problem: Stanley ran a 5 kilometer race in 30 minutes. What was his speed in kilometers per hour?
stiv31 [10]
Since the question is asking for the time units to be in hours, you want to convert 30 minutes to an hour; 0.5

We’re able to use the basic motion formula for velocity to work out this question.

Velocity = distance / time
Velocity = 5 / 0.5
Velocity = 10km/h

Therefore, Stanley’s average speed was 10 kilometres per hour. :)

What is the sum?
BaLLatris [955]
4(x + 6)
4 × x = 4x
4 × 6 = 24

3(3x + 4)
3 × 3x = 9x
3 × 4 = 12

9x + 4x = 13x
12 + 24 = 36

So your answer is B) 13x + 36. I hope this helps!
