Answer:
1 gamma = 15/8 alphas
Step-by-step explanation:
so we start by finding out what 1 gamma and 1 beta equals.
we know 4 gammas = 5 betas so if we divide by four on both sides we get:
1 gamma = 5/4 betas. we can apply that same procedure to 2 betas = 3 alphas and get 1 beta = 3/2 alphas
we know that 1 gamma = 5/4 betas and 1 beta = 3/2 alphas so how many alphas = 5/4 betas? using a proportion of ((3/2)/1) = ((x)/(5/4)) we can find that 5/4 betas = 15/8 alphas
therefore we know 1 gamma = 15/8 alphas or 1 and 7/8 alphas
First, plug in the given point into y=mx +b to find b (the y-intercept of the line). Use the same slope (m) in the equation since parallel lines have the same slope (3 in this case).
-1 = 3(4) +b
-1 = 12 + b Subtract 12 to both sides.
-13 = b
Now, put your m and b into y=mx+b.
The final answer/equation of your line is:
y=3x -13
You can try by plugging each ordered pair and seeing if the equation comes out true.
(5, 1)
2 * 5 - 1 = 9
That's correct so C is the correct answer.
Answer:
y=10-x
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the slope of the equation using the formula (change in y/change in x)
(3-7)/(7-3)=-4/4=-1
2. Plug in the slope and one of the coordinate points to the slope-intercept form to find the y-intercept.
slope-intercept form: y=mx+b
7=-3+b
b=10
3. Put the slope-intercept form of the equation together.
y=10-x
