How to solve (3,2) and (5,6) and turn it into 2x-y=4

You can start with the formula

... ∆y(x -x₁) -∆x(y -y₁) = 0

where ∆x = (x₂ -x₁) and ∆y = (y₂ -y₁). It does not matter which point you consider 1 or 2, but it is usually convenient to choose them so the differences are positive.

... (∆x, ∆y) = (5, 6) - (3, 2) = (2, 4)

For purposes of the above equation, it is convenient to divide these differences by any common factor they might have. Here, that factor is 2, so we can use

... (∆x, ∆y) = (1, 2) . . . . . . where (1, 2) = (2/2, 4/2)

Then, using ∆y=2, ∆x=1, x₁=3, y₁=2, the equation for the line becomes

... 2(x -3) - 1(y -2) = 0

... 2x -y -4 = 0 . . . . . . . simplified to general form

... 2x -y = 4 . . . . . . . . . add 4 to put in standard form.

_____

The equation used here is a variation of the 2-point form of the equation for a line. That equation is usually seen as

... y -y₁ = (y₂ -y₁)/(x₂ -x₁)·(x -x₁)

In the terms used above, it can be written as ...

...  y -y₁ = ∆y/∆x·(x -x₁)

Multiplying by ∆x and subtracting the left side, we see it as above:

... ∆y·(x -x₁) - ∆x·(y -y₁) = 0

Ok so without the distributive property we would do 65*7. All u have to do is spread it out like this:-


65+65+65+65+65+65+65=455

What is the equation of the line that passes through (4, 2) and is parallel to 3x – 2y = -6?
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{2} x - 4

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 )

Rearrange 3x - 2y = - 6 into this form

Subtract 3x from both sides

- 2y = - 3x - 6 ( divide all terms by - 2 )

y = \frac{3}{2} x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{3}{2}

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = \frac{3}{2} x + c ← partial equation of parallel line

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

2 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 6 = - 4

y = \frac{3}{2} x - 4 ← equation of parallel line

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!
Stels [109]
Hi there!

The answer is A. The constant 900 represents the amount Kayla's bakery earns in a particular month when there are no online orders. 

Since 900 is part of the cost that is added to the amount of money Kayla makes per online order (x), it must represent the amount Kayla's bakery makes without online orders. 

Hope this helps!
