Write the equation of the line that is parallel to y=1/4x+5 and passes through (2,-9)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tamiku [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  \frac{1}{4} x -  \frac{19}{2}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

From the question the original line is

y=1/4x+5

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = 1/4

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = 1/4

So the equation of the line using point

(2,-9) and slope 1/4 is

<h3>y + 9  =  \frac{1}{4} (x - 2) \\ y + 9 =  \frac{1}{4} x -  \frac{1}{2}  \\ y =  \frac{1}{4} x -  \frac{1}{2}  - 9</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>y =  \frac{1}{4} x -  \frac{19}{2}</h3>

Hope this helps you

Suppose you pick a tile out of a bag containing 26 tiles marked with the letters A through Z. What is the probability of picking
Liula [17]
Given that <span>a bag contains 26 tiles marked with the letters A through Z.

The probability of picking a letter from the name JACK is 4 / 26

The probability of picking a letter from the name BEN is 3 / 26.

Therefore, the probability of picking a letter from the name JACK or from the name BEN iis given by 4 / 26 + 3 / 26 = 7 / 26 </span>

Write an equation of the line that passes through (18, 2) and is parallel to the line 3y−x=−12
miskamm [114]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope, hmmmm what's the slope of the line above anyway?

\bf 3y-x=-12\implies 3y=x-12\implies y=\cfrac{x-12}{3}\implies y = \cfrac{x}{3}-\cfrac{12}{3} \\\\\\ y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{1}{3}}x-4\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/3 and runs through (18,2)

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{18}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{1}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{2}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{1}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{18}) \\\\\\ y-2=\cfrac{1}{3}x-6\implies y=\cfrac{1}{3}x-4

6% of a value is 510
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The value is 8500

Step-by-step explanation:

Of means multiply and is means equals

6% * V = 510

Change percent to decimal form

.06V = 510

Divide each side by .06

V = 510/.06

V =8500
