Write an equation of the line with slope 2/3 that goes through the point -2,5

Mathematics
1 answer:
irinina [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 19/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, this is your current equation: y = 2/3x + b. Plug in your point to the equation, it should look like this: 5 = 2/3(-2) + b. 2/3 times -2 equals -4/3. So, this is what your equation should look like: 5 = -4/3 + b. Add 4/3 to both sides of the equation to get 19/3 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug 19/3 to b. This is your final equation: y = 2/3x + 19/3. Hope this helped!

Given a term and the common difference, find the explicit formula.<br> 8. a(19) = 135<br> d = 15
Rasek [7]

The explicit formula is a(n) = 15(n – 10)

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, a term a(19) = 135 and common difference d = 15

We have to find the explicit formula.

Now, we know that, a(n) = a + (n – 1)d where a(n) is nth term, a is first term, d is common difference,

So, for a(19)  

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow a(19)=a+(19-1) 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow 135=a+18 \times 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=135-270} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=-135}\end{array}

Now, we know that, an explicit formula is an expression for finding the nth term,  

So, in our problem, expression for finding nth term is a + (n – 1)d  

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow-135+(n-1) 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow-135+15 n-15} \\\\ {\rightarrow 15 n-150} \\\\ {\rightarrow 15(n-10)}\end{array}

Hence, the explicit formula is a(n) = 15(n – 10).

How many solutions does the equation have? a+5=1/5(5a+25)
Iteru [2.4K]
A + 5 = \frac{1}{5} (5a + 25)

First, simplify \frac{1}{5} (5a + 25) to \frac{5a+25}{5} / Your problem should look like: a + 5 =  \frac{5a+25}{5}
Second, multiply both sides by 5. / Your problem should look like: 5a + 25 = 5(a + 5)
Third, expand to get rid of parenthesis. / Your problem should look like: 5a + 25 = 5a + 25
Fourth, both sides are equal, resulting it having infinite solutions.

Answer: infinite solutions

What is the value of a in the diagram below?​
adell [148]

Answer:

a=8

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios of similar triangles to solve

The smaller triangle has sides a and 12  and the larger triangle has sides a+a+4  and 12+18  which combine to 2a+4  and 30

a               2a +4

--------- = -----------

12            30

Using cross products

30a = 12(2a+4)

30a = 24a +48

Subtract 24a from each side

30a -24a = 24a-24a +48

6a = 48

Divide each sdie by 6

6a/6 =48/6

a =8
