Write an equation of the line that passes through (18, 2) and is parallel to the line 3y−x=−12

Mathematics

keeping in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope, hmmmm what's the slope of the line above anyway?

\bf 3y-x=-12\implies 3y=x-12\implies y=\cfrac{x-12}{3}\implies y = \cfrac{x}{3}-\cfrac{12}{3} \\\\\\ y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{1}{3}}x-4\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/3 and runs through (18,2)

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{18}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{1}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{2}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{1}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{18}) \\\\\\ y-2=\cfrac{1}{3}x-6\implies y=\cfrac{1}{3}x-4

A dinner table is a perfect circle with a diameter of 8 feet
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The area of the tablecloth showing is approximately 45.55 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of the dinner table, D = 8 feet

The diameter of each plate, d = 1 feet

The number of people at the dinner table = 6 people

The number of plates = 6 plates

The area of the table cloth, A₁ = π·D²/4

∴ A₁ = π × 8²/4

The area covered by the 6 plates, A₂ = 6·π·d²/4

A₂ = 6 × π × 1²/4

Let 'A' represent the area of the tablecloth showing when the table is set for six people, we have;

A = A₁ - A₂

∴ A = π × 8²/4 - 6 × π × 1²/4 ≈ 45.55 ft.²

The area of the tablecloth showing when the table is set for six people, A ≈ 45.55 ft.²
