Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,1), (-2,-1)

slope(m) = (-1-1) / (-2 - 2) = -2/-4 = 1/2

parallel lines will have the same slope

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 1/2

(-4,8)...x = -4 and y = 8

now sub and find b, the y int

8 = 1/2(-4) + b

8 = -2 + b

8 + 2 = b

10 = b

so ur equation is : y = 1/2x + 10 <==

Answer:

\displaystyle x - 2y = -20\:OR\:y = \frac{1}{2}x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the <em>rate of</em><em> </em><em>change</em><em> </em>[<em>slope</em>]:

\displaystyle \frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m \\ \\ \frac{-1 - 1}{-2 - 2} = \frac{-2}{-4} = \frac{1}{2}

Now plug [−4, 8] into the Slope-Intercept Formula instead of the <em>Point-Slope</em><em> </em><em>Formula</em><em> </em>because you get it done much more swiftly:

8 = ½[−4] + b

−2

\displaystyle 10 = b \\ \\ y = \frac{1}{2}x + 10

If you want it in <em>Standard</em><em> </em><em>Form</em>:

y = ½x + 10

- ½x - ½x

__________

−½x + y = 10 [We do not want fractions in our standard equation, so multiply by the denominator to get rid of it.]

−2[−½x + y = 10]

\displaystyle x - 2y = -20

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Answer:    f'(1)=\dfrac{4}{2y+1}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the tangent, you need to find the derivative with respect to x.

Then substitute x = 1 into the derivative.

Given:         0 = 2x² - xy - y²

Derivative:  0 = 4x - y' - 2yy'

Solve for y': 2yy' + y' = 4x

                   y'(2y + 1) = 4x

                   y'=\dfrac{4x}{2y+1}

\text{Substitute x = 1:}\quad y'(1)=\dfrac{4}{2y+1}

A bottle holds 5/12 gallon of water. How many bottles can be filled with 2 1/4<br> gallons of water?
tekilochka [14]

Answer: 0.185 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 5/12 by 2 1/4

First convert the improper fraction to a proper fraction, 2 1/4 = 9/4

5/12 ÷ 9/4

= 5/12 × 4/9

= 5/27 = 0.185

matrenka [14]

Answer:

$75.08

Step-by-step explanation:

x over 57.75 = 30 over 100

57.75 * 30

1732.5 / 100

17.325

57.75 + 17.325

75.075

Simplify = $75.08
