A line having a slope of 3/4 passes through the point (-8,4). Write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form.

1 answer:

4 0

$General\ equation\ for\ line\ in\ slope\ intercept\ form:\\\\y=ax+b\\
a-slope\ \ \ a=\frac{3}{4}\\\\
y=\frac{3}{4}x+b\\\\Substitude\ point\ (-8,4)\\\\
4=\frac{3}{4}*(-8)+b\\\\
4=-\frac{24}{4}+b\ \ \ |Add\ -\frac{24}{4}\\\\
4+\frac{24}{4}=b\\\\
b=4+6=b\\\\
b=10\\\\
\textbf{Formula\ for\ line:}y=\frac{3}{4}x+10$

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the system is where the lines cross. The x-coordinate of that point is its horizontal distance from the y-axis.

The solution is (x, y) = (-2, 2). The x-coordinate is -2.

Someone help i need an answer

Remember that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

$2w + 2l$

$w$ is the width of the rectangle
$l$ is the length of the rectangle

Thus, in this case, you can see that we are adding two of the same monomials and two of another monomial. One monomial is $x + 15$ and another monomial is $x + 5$ . In this case, these monomials would fulfill the perimeter equation of a rectangle.

Applying this perimeter structure, we can find that this expression represents a perimeter equation of a rectangle with sides x + 15 and x + 5.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] \\\\\det A=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right|=ad-bc$

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+2y=5\\x-3y=7\end{array}\right\\\\A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2\\1&-3\end{array}\right] \\\\\det A=A=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}1&2\\1&-3\end{array}\right|=(1)(-3)-(1)(2)=-3-2=-5$
