Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Calculate the slope of the given line using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{2+4}{2+2} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

Parallel lines have equal slopes and using (a, b) = (- 3, 1), then

y - 1 = \frac{3}{2}(x - (- 3)), that is

y - 1 = \frac{3}{2}(x + 3) ← in point- slope form

the amount of gasoline used by a car varies jointly as the distance travelled and the square root of the speed.Suppose a car use
klemol [59]

Answer:

200 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

let g be gasoline used, d the distance travelled and s the speed, then the equation relating the quantities is

g = kd\sqrt{s} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use g = 25, d = 100 and s = 100, then

25 = k × 100 × \sqrt{100} = k × 100 × 10 = 1000k ( divide both sides by 1000 )

0.025 = k

g = 0.025d\sqrt{s} ← equation of variation

When d = 1000 and s = 64, then

g = 0.025 × 1000 × \sqrt{64} = 0.025 × 1000 × 8 = 200

4z - 8 = 20<br> Step by step
AysviL [449]

Answer:

z = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

4z - 8 = 20

Add 8 to each side

4z - 8+8 = 20+8

4z = 28

Divide each side by 4

4z/4 = 28/4

z = 7

If a number is doubled and then increasa30 the result is five less then three times number find the number
valkas [14]

Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number.

  2n+3 . . . . "doubled, then increased by 30"

  3n -5 . . . . "five less than three times the number"

These two results are equal, so we have ...

  2n +3 = 3n -5

  8 = n . . . . . . . . . . add 5-2n

The number is 8.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

There are 21 people, everyone hugs each other, but the person hugging cant hug themself, so (21*21)-21

(21*21) -21 = 441

441-21=420
