67. The line contains the point (4,0) and is parallel to the line defined by 3x = 2y.

olganol [36]

Answer:

$y=\frac{3}{2} x-6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we need to know:

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+b$ where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)

Parallel lines will always have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

1) Determine the slope of the parallel line

Organize 3x = 2y into slope-intercept form. Why? So we can easily identify the slope, m.

$3x = 2y$

Switch the sides

$2y=3x$

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate y

$\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{3}{2} x\\y=\frac{3}{2} x$

Now that this equation is in slope-intercept form, we can easily identify that $\frac{3}{2}$ is in the place of m. Therefore, because parallel lines have the same slope, the parallel line we're solving for now will also have the slope $\frac{3}{2}$ . Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=\frac{3}{2} x+b$

2) Determine the y-intercept

$y=\frac{3}{2} x+b$

Plug in the given point, (4,0)

$0=\frac{3}{2} (4)+b\\0=6+b$

Subtract both sides by 6

$0-6=6+b-6\\-6=b$

Therefore, -6 is the y-intercept of the line. Plug this into $y=\frac{3}{2} x+b$ as b:

$y=\frac{3}{2} x-6$

I hope this helps!

Billy is a professional baseball player. He had 99 singles, 47 doubles, 4 triples, and 15 home runs in his first year playing. I

Maurinko [17]

Answer: 792

Step-by-step explanation:

From what I got it should be 792 because it is asking for doubles, triples, and home runs all together at the same amount that he got on his first year.

It says after 12 years

Doubles 47 times 12 years = 564

Triples 4 times 12 years = 48

and

Home runs 15 times 12 years = 180

564 + 48 = 612

612 + 180 = 792
