What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and has an x-intercept of –3?

You did not include the given line to which your line is parallel to.

Nevertheless, I can explain you how to solve this problem and which the possible solutions are.

1) x-intercept = - 3 = y = 0

The only two equations that include the point (-3,0) are y = x + 3 and y = - x - 3 (you likely forgot to place the negative signs).

You can prove that in this way:

a) y = x + 3
y = 0 => x + 3 = 0 => x = - 3

b) y = - x - 3
y = 0 => - x - 3 = 0 => x = - 3

Then, so far you have two options: y = x + 3 and y = - x - 3.

2) The slope of y = x + 3 is 1 and the slope of y = - x - 3 = - 1 (the coefficient of the x).

3) You know that line whose equation you are determining is parallel to the given line. That means that their slope are the same. So, your next step is to determine the slope of the given line. It shall be either 1 or - 1. Once you have the slope, you will know whether the solution is y = x + 3 or y = - x - 3.

Consider rolling two fair dice one 3-sided the other 5-sided
Ne4ueva [31]

Since the dice are fair and the rolling are independent, each single outcome has probability 1/15. Every time we choose

1\leq x\leq 3,\quad 1\leq y \leq 5

We have P(X=x)=\frac{1}{3} and P(Y=y)=\frac{1}{5}, because the dice are fair.

Now we use the assumption of independence to claim that

P(X=x, Y=y) = P(X=x)\cdot P(Y=y) =\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot\dfrac{1}{5} = \dfrac{1}{15}

Now, we simply have to count in how many ways we can obtain every possible outcome for the sum. Consider the attached table: we can see that we can obtain:

  • 2 in a unique way (1+1)
  • 3 in two possible ways (1+2, 2+1)
  • 4 in three possible ways
  • 5 in three possible ways
  • 6 in three possible ways
  • 7 in two possible ways
  • 8 in a unique way

This implies that the probabilities of the outcomes of W=X+Y are the number of possible ways divided by 15: we can obtain 2 and 8 with probability 1/15, 3 and 7 with probability 2/15, and 4, 5 and 6 with probabilities 3/15=1/5

PLEASE HELP!!! WILL MARK AS BRAINLISTS!!!
Serjik [45]

The limit is x---->4-

The negative show that x approaches from the left

Now

As x approaches 4 from the left ... Means This number should be less than 4 (<4) but really close to 4.

Let's pick a Number

Say 3.99

Substitute this... You have

3.99/3.99-4

3.99/-0.01

If we choose x to be 3.999

we will have

3.999/-0.001

Notice the pattern... As x approaches 4 from the left... This limit will approach NEGATIVE INFINITY

Why?

As you approach 4 from the left... 3.9,3.99,3.999... You notice that the denominator becomes negative and EXTREMELY SMALL... and when you divide by an extremely small Number..... You'll get a relatively HUGE VALUE(You can try this... Use a calc... Divide any number of choice by a very small number... say.. 0.0000001.... You'll get a huge result

In our case... The denominator is negative... So it Will Approach a very Huge Negative Number

Hence

Answer.. X WILL APPROACH NEGATIVE INFINITY.

Vertical asymptotes are the zeroes of the denominator of a function

The denom. is x-4

Equate to zero to get the asymptote

x-4=0

x=4

Hence... There will be a vertical asymptote at x=4.

Have a great day!
