Multiply 72 by 12 and you'll get your answer

ELEN [110]3 years ago

72= 12/x
12/x=72
12=72x
get rid of the fractions in 12/x=72 by multiplying both sides by the lowest common denominator
72x=12
move factors not having x from the left side of the equation

so X= 1/6

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y - 1 = 4(x + 3) and passes through the point (4, 32)?

Monica [59]

Answer:

y = 4x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 1 = 4(x + 3)

Has a slope of 4

y = 4x + c

32 = 4(4) + c

32 - 16 = c

c = 16

y = 4x + 16

Write an equation in slope intercept form for a line perpendicular to the line

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

y=(1/3)x- 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular to each other, then the slopes will be the negative inverse to each other.

Example:

the negative inverse of 2 is -1/2

the slope of $y=-3x+2$ is -3

the negative inverse of -3 is $\dfrac{1}{3}$

So we have the perpendicular line be : $y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+b$

Since it also go through (4,0)

plug in we get $0 = \dfrac{4}{3}+b$

$b=-\frac{4}{3}$

So the equation would be

$y=\frac{1}{3}x - \frac{4}{3}$
