Answer:

a.y=13/16x+37/8

b.y=3/2x+6

c.y=3/4x+9/2

d.x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

All lines must pass through (-2,3)

a. The slope must be 13/16;

y=13/16x+b, SInce it must pass through (-2,3), plug in -2 as the x-value and 3 as the y-value

3=13/16(-2)+b, solve for b.

24/8=-13/8+b

37/8=b

y=13/16x+37/8

b, It must be parallel to the line 3x-2y=2; first, find the slope by converting to y=mx+b

3x-2y=2

-2y=-3x+2

y=3/2x-1, Parallel lines have the same slope so a line parallel to 3x-2y=2 and passing through (-2,3) will have a slope of 3/2.

Plug in (-2,3) to find the b-value again.

(3)=3/2(-2)+b

3=-3+b

6=b

y=3/2x+6

c. It must have a line perpendicular to 4x+3y=6.  Again like in b, find the slope.

y=-4/3+2, the slope is -4/3.

Now, perpendicular lines have the opposite inverse slopes which means that you add a negative sign and flip the numerator and denominator

-(-3/4), this is just 3/4

Ok, the slope of the line is 3/4, plug in (-2,3) to find the b-value again.

(3)=3/4(-2)+b

6/2=-3/2+b

9/2=b

y=3/4x+9/2

d. The line is paralell to the y-axis.

This just means that the line is vertical. The line has no slope.

The vertical line that passes through the x-value -2 is x=-2

x=-2

Solve for x if the angles are 110 and 2x+3
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is an isosceles triangle the angle 2x+3 is the same as the missing angle. The angles in triangles add up to 180 degrees. 180-110=70.

Because the two angles are the same you can divide 70 by 2 to get 35.

35=2x+3.

35-3=2x+3-3

32=2x

32/2=2x/2

16=x

Answer:

Area of circle = 465.82 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Circumference of the hub cap = 76.49 cm

Pie, π = 3.14

To find the area of the hub cap;

First of all, we would determine the radius of the hub cap.

Mathematically, circumfeence of a circle is equal to;

C = 2πr

Where:

C is the circumference of a circle.

r is the radius of a circle.

C = 2πr

76.49 = 2 * 3.14 * r

76.49 = 6.28r

Radius, r = 76.49/6.28

Radius, r = 12.18 cm

Next, we find the area of the hub cap;

Area of circle = πr²

Area of circle = 3.14 * 12.18²

Area of circle = 3.14 * 148.35

Area of circle = 465.82 cm²

However, if the circumference of the hub cap were smaller, the area of the hub cap would also be smaller. Thus, the circumference of a hub cap is directly proportional to the area of a hub cap.

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

m∠5=34\°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If  a∥b

then

m∠5=m∠1 -------> by corresponding angles

so

m∠5=34\°
