Which statement explains how the lines 2x + y = 4 and y = one halfx + 4 are related?

Answer:

They are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem .

we will convert the equations in slope intercept form.

Slope intercept  form of equation is y = mx+c

where m is slope of line and c is y intercept.

________________________________

equation 1 is

2x+y = 4

=> y =4 - 2x or y = -2x + 4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = -2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

equation 2 is y = one halfx + 4 ( one half is same as 1/2)

so equation is

y = x/2 +4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = 1/2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

Now lets evaluate options

They are parallel.  wrong option

For lines to be parallel slope should be same.

But here slope are different -2 and 1/2 .

Thus lines are not parallel.

__________________________________________

They are perpendicular.  correct option

For lines to be perpendicular, product of slope should be equal to -1.

-2*1/2 = -1

we can see that product of slope should be equal to -1 .

Thus lines are  perpendicular

______________________________________

They are the same line.  wrong option

For lines to be same both slope and y intercept should  be same.

Y intercept is same but the slopes are different -2 and 1/2  .

Thus lines are not  the same line.

__________________________________________

They are not related.       wrong option

As we have found that the lines are perpendicular .

So this option is intuitively wrong

What type of conic section is represented by the parametric equations below? X=3cos(t)-1 y=3sin(t)+4
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Circle

Step-by-step explanation:

Examples of conic sections are the circle, the ellipse, the parabola and the hyperbola. Parametric equations are used to express the x and y variables in terms of a less complicated manner using a third variable (t or θ).

The parametric equation for a circle with an equation (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 is given by:

x=rcos(t)+h, y=rsin(t)+k

where r is the radius of the circle and (h, k) is the center of the circle.

A conic section with a parametric equations X=3cos(t)-1, y=3sin(t)+4 is a circle with center at (-1, 4) and radius of 3. The equation of the circle is:

(x + 1)² + (y - 4)² = 3²

A manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens. The manufacturer makes as many packs as possible.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens, and the manufacturer makes as many packs as possible, to determine how many packs of pens does the manufacturer make, and how many pens are left over, the following must be done calculation:

5.634 / 4 = X

1,408.5 = X

5,634 - (1,408 x 4) = X

5.634 - 5.632 = X

2 = X

Therefore, 1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.
