Answer: y = -3x -7   or    3x + y = -7  

Step-by-step explanation:

For two lines to be the same, they need to have the same slopes but different y-intercepts. First convert the equation 3x+y =5 into slope intercept form.

3x + y = 5  subtract 3x from both sides

-3x          -3x

 y = -3x +  5   in this case we know that the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 5.

Now since they will have the same slope input the x and y coordinates and find the equation that will be parallel to it.

-4 = -3(-1) + b

-4 = 3 +b  

-3     -3

b=  -7  

Since the y intercept is -7 the equation will be  y = -3x -7   or   3x + y = -7

The relative growth rate for a certain type of bacteria population is 85% per hour. A small culture has formed and in just 2 hou
harkovskaia [24]
Let us assume the initial number of bacteria in the culture = xAfter 1 hour,The number of bacteria = 185x/100                                      = 1.85xAfter 2 hours,The number of bacteria = (185 * 1.85x)/100                                       = 3.42xSo3.42x = 12500x = 12500/3.42   = 3654.97   = 3655From the above deduction, we can conclude that the initial number of bacteria in the culture is 3655.

Step-by-step explanation:

given length of hypotenuse, h=3 units.

adjascent angle for x is 45°

cos(45°)=x/3

cos(45°)=1/root 2(I dont have root symbol sorry)

1/root 2=x/3

x=3/root 2 units

x=3root 2/2
