Answer:y=5x/3 +7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we find the slope of the line parallel. That is clearly, by rearranging, -3y= -5x + 9, and then dividing by -3, the slope is 5/3 .

Now, we know our equation is in the form of y = 5x/3 + b. Plugging in (-6,-3), we have -3 = -10 + b, so b = 7. Therefore, our equation is y= 5x/3 +7.

The set of points P(0, 3), Q(2, 0), R(4, -3) are collinear and the line has a slope of _____.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

slope = -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of three or more points are said to be collinear if they all lie on the same straight line.

We have been given the following collinear set of points;

P(0, 3), Q(2, 0), R(4, -3)

This implies that P, Q, and R lie on the same line.

The slope of a line is defined as; (change in y)/(change in x)

Using the points P and Q, the slope of the line is calculated as;

(0-3)/(2-0) = -3/2 = -1.5

What are the solutions to the equation 3(x – 4)(x + 5) = 0?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

x=4 and x= - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this we should re-arrange the equation:

(x-4)(x+5)=\frac{0}{3}

This is equal to:

(x-4)(x+5)=0

Then we can seperate this into:

(x-4)=0\\(x+5)=0

So solving for x in both cases we get

x-4=0 \\x=4\\And\\x+5=0\\x=-5\\

Answer:

C  a1= -2

    an = an-1 +3

Step-by-step explanation:

an = -2+ (n-1)3

What is the first term?  Let n=1

a1 = -2 + 0*3

a1 = -2


The difference between the  terms is +3  (coefficient on (n-1))

The second term is the first term +3

The third term is the second term plus 3

The next term is the previous term +3

so an = an-1+ 3
