For this case we have that the generic equation of the line is given by:
$y = mx + b
$
Where,
m: slope of the line
b: intersection with the y axis.
Since the line is parallel to PQ, then the slopes are equal.
We have then:
$m = 1/4.
$
On the other hand we have:
$b = -3
$
Substituting values we have:
$y = (1/4) x - 3$
Answer:
The equation of the line that is parallel to line PQ and that has the and intercept b = -3 is:
$y = (1/4) x - 3$

10. 10. If AB bisects CAF, and m<EAF = 72°,<br>then the m<BAF =

never [62]

The measure of ∠BAF is 54°.

Solution:

DF and CE are intersecting lines.

m∠EAF = 72° and AB bisects ∠CAF.

∠EAF and ∠DAC are vertically opposite angles.

Vertical angle theorem:

<em>If two lines are intersecting, then vertically opposite angles are congruent.</em>

∠DAC ≅ ∠EAF

m∠DAC = 72°

<em>Sum of the adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°</em>

m∠DAE + m∠EAF = 180°

m∠DAE + 72° = 180°

Subtract 72° from both sides.

m∠DAE = 108°

∠CAF and ∠DAE are vertically opposite angles.

⇒ m∠CAF = m∠DAE

⇒ m∠CAF = 108°

AB bisects ∠CAF means ∠CAB = ∠BAF

m∠CAB + m∠BAF = 108°

m∠BAF + m∠BAF = 108°

2 m∠BAF = 108°

Divide by 2 on both sides, we get

m∠BAF = 54°

Hence the measure of ∠BAF is 54°.

Find the solution of the initial value problem<br><br> dy/dx=(-2x+y)^2-7 ,y(0)=0

Leokris [45]

Substitute $v(x)=-2x+y(x)$ , so that $\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{\mathrm dx}=-2+\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}$ . Then the ODE is equivalent to

$\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{\mathrm dx}+2=v^2-7$

which is separable as

$\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{v^2-9}=\mathrm dx$

Split the left side into partial fractions,

$\dfrac1{v^2-9}=\dfrac16\left(\dfrac1{v-3}-\dfrac1{v+3}\right)$

so that integrating both sides is trivial and we get

$\dfrac{\ln|v-3|-\ln|v+3|}6=x+C$

$\ln\left|\dfrac{v-3}{v+3}\right|=6x+C$

$\dfrac{v-3}{v+3}=Ce^{6x}$

$\dfrac{v+3-6}{v+3}=1-\dfrac6{v+3}=Ce^{6x}$

$\dfrac6{v+3}=1-Ce^{6x}$

$v=\dfrac6{1-Ce^{6x}}-3$

$-2x+y=\dfrac6{1-Ce^{6x}}-3$

$y=2x+\dfrac6{1-Ce^{6x}}-3$

Given the initial condition $y(0)=0$ , we find

$0=\dfrac6{1-C}-3\implies C=-1$

so that the ODE has the particular solution,

$\boxed{y=2x+\dfrac6{1+e^{6x}}-3}$
