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

Part A

<h3>Answer:  h^2 + 4h</h3>

-------------------

Explanation:

We multiply the length and height to get the area

area = (length)*(height)

area = (h+4)*(h)

area = h(h+4)

area = h^2 + 4h .... apply the distributive property

The units for the area are in square inches.

===========================================================

Part B

<h3>Answer:  h^2 + 16h + 60</h3>

-------------------

Explanation:

If we add a 3 inch frame along the border, then we're adding two copies of 3 inches along the bottom side. The h+4 along the bottom updates to h+4+3+3 = h+10 along the bottom.

Similarly, along the vertical side we'd have the h go to h+3+3 = h+6

The old rectangle that was h by h+4 is now h+6 by h+10

Multiply these expressions to find the area

area = length*width

area = (h+6)(h+10)

area = x(h+10) ..... replace h+6 with x

area = xh + 10x .... distribute

area = h( x ) + 10( x )

area = h( h+6 ) + 10( h+6 ) .... plug in x = h+6

area = h^2+6h + 10h+60 .... distribute again twice more

area = h^2 + 16h + 60

You can also use the box method or the FOIL rule as alternative routes to find the area.

The units for the area are in square inches.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

x = 9.5y

Step-by-step explanation:

7 lawns = $66.50

1 lawn = $66.50 ÷ 7

          = $9.50

You now know that for one lawn mowed, the amount of money earned is $9.50. Thus:

1x = 9.5y

x = 9.5y
