Answer:

<h2>The answer is option A</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

From the question the original line is

y = 2/3x - 7

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = 2/3

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = 2/3

So the equation of the line using point

(12 , 2 ) and slope 2/3 is

y - 2 =  \frac{2}{3} (x - 12) \\ y - 2 =  \frac{2}{3} x - 8 \\ y =  \frac{2}{3} x - 8 + 2

We have the final answer as

y =  \frac{2}{3} x - 6 \\

Hope this helps you

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

$135

Step-by-step explanation:

Paperback=$4.75

Hardcover=$11.50

Multiply 4.75 and 20=95

Multiply 11.50 and 20=230

Subtract 230 and 95=135

so it would be $135

The graph represents the normal distribution of recorded weights, in pounds, of cats at a veterinary clinic.
diamong [38]

Answer:

<em>B)</em><em> 8.9 lbs </em>

<em>C)</em><em> 9.5 lbs </em>

<em>D)</em><em> 9.8 lbs </em>

<em>E)</em><em> 10.4 lbs</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, 9.5 is the mean of the sample and 0.5 is the standard deviation of the sample.

As we have to find the weights that lie within the 2 standard deviations of the mean i.e

=9.5\pm 2(0.5)

=8.5,10.5

Among the given weights only 8.9 lbs, 9.5 lbs, 9.8 lbs, 10.4 lbs will lie within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = – 1 4 x – 8 and passes though the point (2, –4).
vivado [14]

The equation of the line is y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{29}{7}

Explanation:

The equation of the line is perpendicular to y=-14 x-8

The equation is of the form y=mx+b where m=-14

<u>Slope:</u>

The slope of the perpendicular line can be determined using the formula,

m_1 \cdot m_2=-1

-14 \cdot m_2=-1

       m_2=\frac{1}{14}

Thus, the slope of the line is m=\frac{1}{14}

<u>Equation of the line:</u>

The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Substituting the slope m=\frac{1}{14} and the point (2,-4), we get,

y+4=\frac{1}{14}(x-2)

Simplifying, we get,

y+4=\frac{1}{14}x-\frac{1}{7}

     y=\frac{1}{14}x-\frac{1}{7}-4

     y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{29}{7}

Thus, the equation of the line is y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{29}{7}

If 3/4 +1/6 =p then the value of p is what?
laila [671]

Answer: 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Addition of fractions

#1 Change to the same denominator

- LCM (Least common multiple) of 4 and 6 is 12

- 9/12+2/12

#2 Add the numerator as usual

 9/12+2/12

=(9+2)/12

=11/12

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

p=3/4+1/6

p=11/12
