What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-1,2) and is parallel

Mathematics
1 answer:
torisob [31]3 years ago

Answer:

y = - 3x - 1

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 )

Given

3x + y = 3 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

y = - 3x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 1, 2) into the partial equation

2 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 3 = - 1

y = - 3x - 1 ← equation of parallel line

How can you represent all of the solutions to systems of inequalities?​
Dimas [21]

Answer:A closed, or shaded, circle is used to represent the inequalities greater than or equal to (≥) or less than or equal to (≤) . The point is part of the solution. An open circle is used for greater than (>) or less than (<). The point is not part of the solution. Solving" systems of linear inequalities means "graphing each individual inequality, and then finding the overlaps of the various solutions". So I graph each inequality, and then find the overlapping portions of the solution regions.Step 1: Line up the equations so that the variables are lined up vertically. Step 2: Choose the easiest variable to eliminate and multiply both equations by different numbers so that the coefficients of that variable are the same. Step 3: Subtract the two equations. Step 4: Solve the one variable system.

9x-23=49 what is the second step in this equation?
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Divide both sides by 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the second step of the equation, we actually have to solve parts of the equation until we get to step 2.

Step 1: Add 23 to both sides.

  • 9x - 23 + 23 = 49 + 23
  • 9x = 72

Step 2: Divide both sides by 9.

  • \frac{9x}{9} = \frac{72}{9}
  • x = 8

Therefore, the second step is divide both sides by 9.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡

If you make $3.80 an hour plus tips, what is your paycheck for the week if you worked 40 hours and made $250.00 dollars in tips?
lesya [120]

Answer:

$402

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

If you made 3.80 an hour and worked 40 we can multiply these to find the total amount you earned.

3.80 * 40 = 152

You also made 250 in tips so we add that to the total

152+250 = 402

The answer is $402

Hope this helps!
