Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (5,1) and is parallel to the line y= (-3/5)x -3

Answer:

y = (-3/5)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

So the slope to the other line would be -3/5 as well.

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope.

So you substitute the slope in making it y = (-3/5)x+b.

To find b, the y-intercept, you have to plug in the point for y and x in it. So you use the point (5,1) for it. That would get to 1 = (-3/5)5 + b.

To simplify that, it would get to 1 = -3 + b

Then you add 3 on both sides getting to b = 4.

Then you substitute b in, getting y = (-3/5)x + 4.

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

angles 2 and 4 are supplementary so they add up to 180

2x + 10 + 4x + 80 = 180

6x + 90 = 180

6x = 90

x = 15

P + nx=rx-e (solve for x)
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

(p+e)/(r-n) =  x

Step-by-step explanation:

p + nx=rx-e

Add e to each side

p +e+ nx=rx-e+e

p +e+ nx=rx

Subtract nx from each side

p +e+ nx - nx=rx-nx

p+e = rx -nx

Factor out x

p+e = x(r-n)

Divide each side by (r-n)

(p+e)/(r-n) =  x(r-n)/(r-n)

(p+e)/(r-n) =  x
