Answer:

y = 3x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 4 is in this form with slope m = 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (4, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = 12 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 12 = - 14

y = 3x - 14 ← equation of parallel line

Find the surface area. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answer: $569.91\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given picture, the radius of the base of the cylinder = 5.5 ft.

The height of the cylinder = 5 ft.+6 ft.=11 ft.

We know that the surface area of a cylinder is given by :-

$\text{Surface Area}=2\pi r (r+h)\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Surface Area}=2(3.14)(5.5)(5.5+11)\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Surface Area}=569.91\ ft^2$

Hence, the surface area of the given cylinder = $569.91\ ft^2$

-1/2x+2=-x+7 i need to know

ludmilkaskok [199]

$= \frac{ - 1}{ \: \: 2} x + 2 = x + 7$

$= \frac{ - 1}{ \: \: \: 2} x + 2 - x = 7$

$= \frac{ - 3}{ \: \: \: 2}x + 2 = 7$

$= \frac{ - 3}{ \: \ \: 2}x = 7 - 2$

$= \frac{ - 3}{ \: \: \: 2} x = 5$

$x = 5 \: \div \frac{ - 3}{ \: \: \: 2}$

$x = 5 \times \frac{ \: \: \: 2}{ - 3}$

$x = \frac{ - 10}{ \: \: \: 3}$

$∴ \frac{ - 1}{ \: \: \: 2} \times \frac{ - 10}{ \: \: \: 3} = \frac{ - 10}{ \: \: \: 3} + 7$

a coach asked two players how much water they drank before practice. Ashley said she drank 1/2 pint and Claire said she drank 0.

Andre45 [30]

1. The problem gives the following information: Ashley said she drank 1/2 pints and Claire said she drank 0.7 pints.

2. Therefore, to solve this problem you must follow the proccedure that is shown below:

3. You must sum the amount of water that Ashley and Claire drank before the practice. Then, you have:

1/2 pints=0.5 pints (Ashley)
0.7 pints (Claire)

x=0.5 pints+0.7 pints
x=1.2 pints

How many pints of water did Ashley and Claire drink combined?

The answer is: 1.2 pints or 1 1/5 pints
