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

Mathematics

Tamiku [17]3 years ago

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

Determine the effects on the graph of the parent function ƒ(x) = x for the g(x) function.
love history [14]

Answer:

We can define a horizontal dilation/contraction of scale factor A, as:

g(x) = f(x*A)

if A > 1, this will be a contraction (it will be steeper)

if  0 < A < 1, this will be a dilation. (it will be less steep)

Then if we have:

g(x) = f(6*x) we have a contraction of scale factor 6, this means that the graph of the parent function will be contracted.

Below, you can see how the graphs change, where:

Blue is f(x)  =x

green is g(x) = f(6*x) = 6*x

A reporter determines a baseball player’s batting average, which is a ratio of the number of hits to number of times at bat. The
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

21/99 or 7/33

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 0.212121

Then we multiple the decimal and x by hundred.

100x = 21.212121

Then we subtract the 21.212121 by 0.212121.

100x = 21.212121 - 0.212121

But when you are subtracting 100x, you need to subtract 100x by x because in the first step it said x = 0.212121.

100x - x = 21.212121 - 0.212121

You will have at the end is

99x = 21

Divide 99 on both side and you left with

21/99 or 7/33 simplified version
