Hello :

<span>a line that is parallel to the line represented by the function below? y=2/5x+9
has same slope : 2/5
an equation is: y =( 2/5)x+b</span>

I am assuming you meant:

y=2x/5+9

If so:

A parallel line must have the same slope. The line is of the form:

y=mx+b where m=slope, in this case 2/5

So the parallel line will be of the form:

y=2x/5+b where b is the y-intercept.

There are infinitely many solutions as any line with the same slope is parallel to the original line. However the y-intercept can be any real number, that is why there are infinitely many solutions...Any value of b in the line we found above will still be parallel to the original line...

Find the coordinates of the three points on the graph of y = (1/2)x² -2x whose x-values are −2, 0, and 4.

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

y = 6

y = 0

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x² -2x$

When, x = -2

$y=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^2-2\times(-2)\\\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}4+4\\\Rightarrow y=2+4\\\Rightarrow y=6$

y = 6

When, x = 0

$y=\frac{1}{2}\times (0)^2-2\times(0)\\\Rightarrow y=0+0\\\Rightarrow y=0$

y = 0

When, x = 4

$y=\frac{1}{2}\times (4)^2-2\times(4)\\\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}16-8\\\Rightarrow y=8-8\\\Rightarrow y=0$

y = 0

In option A, the initial investment do not increase at a constant rate yearly.

In option B, the amount invested increase by $75 yearly.

In option C, the yearly increase does not have a steady value.

In option D, the amount invested increases by a n + consecutive odd values yearly. Where n is the increase of the previous year.
