Answer:

y = -3/4x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the line you want is -3/4. The point-slope form of the equation of a line is useful when you have this information:

y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

y -(-2) = -3/4(x -4)

If you want slope-intercept form, you can rearrange this ...

y +2 = -3/4x +3

y = -3/4x +1 . . . . . . subtract 2 from both sides

The base of a triangle is decreasing at the rate of 1 ft/sec, while the height is increasing at the rate of 2 ft/sec. At what ra

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

We are given with the rate of change of the base, db/dt equal to 1 ft/ sec and the rate of change of the height of the triangle, dh/dt equal to 2 ft/sec. b is 10 ft and h is 70 ft. Area of triangle is equal to A= 0.5 bh The rate of change of the area is equal to dA/dt = 0.5 b dh/dt + 0.5 h db/dt. Substituting, dA= 0.5*10*2 + 0.5*70 * 1 equal to 45 ft2 / sec.
