What's an equation that the passes through (-6,4) and is parallel to y=1/2x+8

Mathematics

deff fn [24]3 years ago

By definition, if two lines share the same gradient, they are said to be parallel. So, we know for this equation, it must have a gradient of 1/2.

Now, since the point (-6, 4) passes through the line, we know it must satisfy the equation. Since we have a gradient/slope and a point, we can use the point-gradient form:

y - y_1 = \frac{1}{2}(x - x_1), where (x_1, y_1) represents the points being passed through.

y - 4 = \frac{1}{2}(x + 6)
2y - 8 = x + 6
2y = x + 14
y = \frac{1}{2}x + 7

If "z" is a standard normal variable, find the probability that "z" is less than 1.16. Sketch the graph and the required area.
mixer [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be more obvious if it says z is a standard Normal variable and that the question is related to statistics.

From "Computing Probabilities Using the Cumulative Table" , the probability of z is less than 1.16, P(z<1.16) = 0.8770.

What is the maximum number of possible solutions for the system shown below?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation is that of a an ellipse. The second equation is that of a line.

Attached is the graphs of both of these equations.

<em>If you think about it, there can only be 2 possible ways of solutions (intersection points) of an ellipse and a line.</em>

<em>1. The line will not intersect the ellipse at all, so no solution</em>

<em>2. The line will intersect the ellipse at 2 points maximum</em>

<em />

So, we can clearly see from the reasoning that the maximum number of possible solutions would be 2. The graph attached confirms this as well.

A 36 ft tree casts a 9 ft shadow at the same time a building casts a 15 ft shadow. How tall is the building?
mote1985 [20]

Answer: The height of the tree is  27f t

Step-by-step explanation: We can set up a proportion comparing the height of each object to the length of the shadow.

h/s

h/15=18/10

Cross multiply

10.h= 18*15

10h=270

Use the multiplicative Inverse

10 h/ 10 = <em><u>270 /10 =27</u></em>
