Answer:

y = (-3/2)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = -4 (rearrange to slope intercept form y = mx + b)

2y = -3x - 4

y = (-3/2) x - 2

comparing this to the general form of a linear equation : y = mx + b

we see that slope of this line (and every line that is parallel to this line),

m = -3/2

if we sub this back in to the general form, we get:

y = (-3/2)x + b

We are still missing the value of b. To find this, we are given that the point (4,1) lies on the line. We simply substitute this back into the equation and solve for b.

1 = (-3/2)4 + b

1 = -6 + b

b = 7

substituting this back into the equation:

y = (-3/2)x + 7

Answer:

2y + 3x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x + 2y = - 4 into this form

Subtract 3x from both sides

2y = - 3x - 4 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = - \frac{3}{2} x - 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{3}{2}

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + c ← partial equation of parallel line

To find c substitute (4, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 1 + 6 = 5

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + 5 ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 2

2y = - 3x + 10 ( add 3x to both sides )

3x + 2y = 10 ← in standard form

X^2 - 9x -10 =0 has a discriminant of: a. 121 b. 72 c. -359 d. 41 e. 136
Feliz [49]
In the standard form of quadratic
ax^{2} +bx+c
the discriminant is
b^{2} -4ac
In your quadratic, a = 1, b = -9 and c = -10
Now you need to plug these values into the expression for the discriminant.

Consider the function f(x) = 5x + 7. Which statement MUST be true? A) f(1) ? f(3) = f(3) ? f(1) B) f(1) ? f(3) = f(5) ? f(3) C)
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The answers are as follows for the functions.

f(1) = 12

f(3) = 22

f(5) = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

To find any of these, simply input the value in for x in the equation given.

f(1)

f(x) = 5x + 7

f(x) = 5(1) + 7

f(x) = 5 + 7

f(x) = 12

You can repeat this for each of them and it will allow you to use all of the numbers in the equations given.

3x+ 54=180
straight angle is 180
So just solve the equation.
subtract 54 on both sides.
126=3x
divide that by 3, and you get 42.
check You answer by multiplying 42 And 3, Which basically Is 126
and then 126+54
which is then 180
