Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given are the two following linear equations:

                       f(x)  =  y  = 1 +  .5x

                       f(x)  =  y  = 11 -  2x

Graph the first equation by finding two data points.  By setting first x and then y equal to zero it is possible to find the y intercept on the vertical axis and the x intercept on the horizontal axis.

           If x = 0, then  f(0)  =  1  + .5(0)  =  1

           If y = 0, then  f(x)  =  0  = 1  +  .5x

                                               -.5x  =  1

                                                    x  =  -2

           The resulting data points are  (0,1)  and  (-2,0)

Graph the second  equation by finding two data points.  By setting first x and then y equal to zero it is possible to find the y intercept on the vertical axis and the x intercept on the horizontal axis.

           If x = 0, then  f(0)  =  11  - 2(0)  =  11

           If y = 0, then  f(x)  =  0  = 11  -  2x

                                               2x  =  11

                                                    x  =  5.5

           The resulting data points are  (0,11)  and  (5.5,0)

At the point of intersection of the two equations x and y have the same values.  From the graph these values can be read as x = 4 and y = 3.

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point?
Artist 52 [7]
<h3>Answer: 3x-2y = 5 (choice A)</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

The given graph passes through (0,2) and (2,5)

The slope of this line is

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (5-2)/(2-0)

m = 3/2

Since the y intercept is b = 2, we go from y = mx+b to y = (3/2)x+2, which is the equation of the graphed line shown.

Any parallel line will have the same slope, but a different y intercept.

-------------------

The parallel line must pass through (x,y) = (3,2). We'll use these coordinates along with m = 3/2 to find the y intercept b

y = mx+b

2 = (3/2)(3)+b

2 = 9/2+b

2-9/2 = b

4/2 - 9/2 = b

-5/2 = b

b = -5/2 ... is the new y intercept

The equation of the parallel line is y = (3/2)x-5/2, which is in slope intercept form

-------------------

Let's convert to standard form

y = (3/2)x-5/2

2y = 3x-5 .... multiply everything by the LCD 2 to clear out fractions

2y+5 = 3x

3x = 2y+5

3x-2y = 5 ... is the equation in standard form of the parallel line

-------------------

As a check, we can plug (x,y) = (3,2) into that last equation above to get

3x-2y = 5

3*3-2*2 = 5 ... replace x with 3, replace y with 2

9-4 = 5

5 = 5

Confirming that (x,y) = (3,2) is on the line.

For what value is a is (a,9) a solution of the equation y=2x+1
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 1 ......(1)

Going through y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m is slope and it is 2

y1 = 9 and x1 = a

y - 9 = 2(x - a)

y - 9 = 2x - 2a

y = 2x - 2a + 9 ........(2)

Equating (1) and (2)

2x + 1 = 2x - 2a + 9

Collecting like terms

2x - 2x + 2a = 9 - 1

2a = 8

a = 8/2

a = 4

–2x – 4 + 5x = 8
andriy [413]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x- 4 + 5x = 8

Collect like terms

-2x + 5x = 8 +4( when a variable crosses over equality sign it becomes either negative or positive depending on the sign)

3x = 12

Divide via by coefficient of x

X = 12/3

= 4
