Write an equation (a) in slope-intercept form and (b) in standard form for the line passing through (-3,5) and parallel to x + 4

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Standard-form :x + 4y -17=0 }\\$

$\boxed{\sf Slope-intercept\ form :y =\dfrac{-1}{4}x +\dfrac{17}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here a equation of the line is given to us and we need to find out the equation of line which passes through the given point and parallel to the given line , the given equation is ,

$\longrightarrow x + 4y = 7\\$

Firstly convert it into slope intercept form of the line which is y = mx + x , as ;

$\longrightarrow 4y = -x + 7 \\$

$\longrightarrow y =\dfrac{-x}{4}+\dfrac{7}{4}\\$

On comparing it to y = mx + c , we have ,

$\longrightarrow m =\dfrac{-1}{4}\\$

$\longrightarrow c =\dfrac{7}{4}\\$

Now as we know that the slope of two parallel lines is same . Therefore the slope of the parallel line will be ,

$\longrightarrow m_{||)}=\dfrac{-1}{4}\\$

Now we may use point slope form of the line as ,

$\longrightarrow y - y_1 = m(x-x_1) \\$

On substituting the respective values ,

$\longrightarrow y - 5 =\dfrac{-1}{4}\{ x -(-3)\}\\$

$\longrightarrow y -5=\dfrac{-1}{4}(x+3)\\$

$\longrightarrow 4(y -5 ) =-1(x +3) \\$

$\longrightarrow 4y -20 = - x -3 \\$

$\longrightarrow x + 4y -20+3=0\\$

$\longrightarrow \underset{Standard \ Form }{\underbrace{\underline{\underline{ x + 4y -17=0}}}} \\$

Again the equation can be rewritten as ,

$\longrightarrow y - 5 = \dfrac{-1}{4}(x +3) \\$

$\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{-1}{4}x -\dfrac{3}{4}+5 \\$

$\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{-1}{4}x -\dfrac{20-3}{4} \\$

$\longrightarrow \underset{Slope-Intercept\ form }{\underbrace{\underline{\underline{ y =\dfrac{-1}{4}x +\dfrac{17}{4}}}}}\\$

Lupe and her friends spend $20 on hot dogs and popcorn at a

vodomira [7]

Answer:

They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that they buy x hotdogs and y popcorn

∵ They buy a total of 11 hotdogs and popcorn

∵ The number of hotdogs is x and the number of popcorn is y

∴ x + y = 11 ⇒ (1)

∵ Hot dogs cost $2.50 each

∵ Popcorn costs $1.00 each

∵ They spend $20 on hot dogs and popcorn

→ Multiply x by 2.5 and y by 1, add the products and equate the sum by 20

∴ 2.5(x) + 1(y) = 20

∴ 2.5x + y = 20 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

→ Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)

∵ (2.5x - x) + (y - y) = (20 - 11)

∴ 1.5x + 0 = 9

∴ 1.5x = 9

→ Divide both sides by 1.5 to find x

∴ x = 6

→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ 6 + y = 11

→ Subtract 6 from both sides

∴ 6 - 6 + y = 11 - 6

∴ y = 5

∴ They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn

A triangle weighs 3 grams, and a circle weighs 6 grams. Use this applet to help find the weight of a square.

lesya [120]

Answer: 3.75 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the weight of the square is x.

The hanger is in balance so the left side is equal to the right side.

Equation therefore is:

Triangle + Square + 3 * circle = 5* square + circle

3 + x + (3 * 6) = 5x + 6

3 + x + 18 = 5x + 6

5x - x = 3 + 18 - 6

4x = 15

x = 15/4

x = 3.75 g

Through: (1,5), perp. to y=-1/10x + 3 pls help

Sedbober [7]

First to get the equation you knew to understand one thing about perpendicular lines. The slope of the line is the opposite reciprocal of the perpendicular lines or the new slope is m = 10.

Then you use the formula
y = mx + b
you plug in your values from the point and the new slope.
(1,5) with new slope m
5= 10(1)+b
5-10=b
-5 = b
then make your new equation
y = 10x -5
that's your line that goes through point (1,5) and is perpendicular to the line given
