Which equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x − 4y = 7 and passes through the point (−4, −2)? Select two options.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

2 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx-b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The point-slope form of a line is y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.

The standard form a line is ax+by=c.

So anyways parallel lines have the same slope.

So if we are looking for a line parallel to 3x-4y=7 then we need to know the slope of this line so we can find the slope of our parallel line.

3x-4y=7

Goal: Put into slope-intercept form

3x-4y=7

Subtract 3x on both sides:

-4y=-3x+7

Divide both sides by -4:

$y=\frac{-3}{-4}x+\frac{7}{-4}$

Simplify:

$y=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{-7}{4}$

So the slope of this line is 3/4. So our line that is parallel to this one will have this same slope.

So we know our line should be in the form of $y=\frac{3}{4}x+b$ .

To find b we will use the point that is suppose to be on our new line here which is (x,y)=(-4,-2).

So plugging this in to solve for b now:

$-2=\frac{3}{4}(-4)+b$

$-2=-3+b$

$3-2=b$

$b=1$

so the equation of our line in slope-intercept form is $y=\frac{3}{4}x+1$

So that isn't option 1 because the slope is different. That was the only option that was in slope-intercept form.

The standard form of a line is ax+by=c and we have 2 options that look like that.

So let's rearrange the line that we just found into that form.

$y=\frac{3}{4}x+1$

Clear the fractions because we only want integer coefficients by multiplying both sides by 4.

This gives us:

$4y=3x+4$

Subtract 3x on both sides:

$-3x+4y=4$

I don't see this option either.

Multiply both sides by -1:

$3x-4y=-4$

I do see this as a option. So far the only option that works is 2.

Let's look at point slope form now.

We had the point that our line went through was (x1,y1)=(-4,-2) and the slope,m, was 3/4 (we found this earlier).

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Plug in like so:

y-(-2)=3/4(x-(-4))

y+2=3/4 (x+4)

So option 5 looks good too.

Anne picked out 3 board games from her cabinet to take to a game night with her friends. She still has more than 10 board games

Tresset [83]

Answer:

x - 3 > 10

There were more than

13

board games in Anne's cabinet to start.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable x represents how many board games were in Anne's cabinet to start. Since she has already picked out 3 board games to bring, the expression x–3 represents how many board games are still in the cabinet.

And, since Anne has more than 10 board games still in her cabinet, x–3 must be greater than 10.

This inequality shows the relationship.

x–3>10

Now, solve for x.

x–3

> 10

x–3+3

> 10+3 Add 3 to both sides

x

> 13 Simplify

So, there were more than 13 board games in Anne's cabinet to start.

Cheddar Cheese

disa [49]

Complete question :

Cheddar Cheese

$3/lb

Swiss Cheese

$5/lb

Keisha is catering a luncheon. She has $30 to spend on a mixture of Cheddar cheese and Swiss cheese. How many pounds of cheese can Keisha get if she buys only Cheddar cheese? Only Swiss cheese? A mixture of both cheeses?

What linear equation in standard form can she use to model the situation?

Answer:

10 lbs of cheddar cheese

6 lbs of Swiss cheese

$3a + $5b = $30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cheddar cheese = $3/lb

Swiss cheese = $5/lb

Total amount budgeted for cheese = $30

How many pounds of cheese can Keisha get if she buys only Cheddar cheese?

Pounds of cheedar cheese obtainable with $30

Total budget / cost per pound of cheddar cheese

$30 / 3 = 10 pounds of cheedar cheese

Only Swiss cheese?

Pounds of cheedar cheese obtainable with $30

Total budget / cost per pound of Swiss cheese

$30 / 5 = 6 pounds of Swiss cheese

A mixture of both cheeses?

What linear equation in standard form can she use to model the situation?

Let amount of cheddar cheese she can get = a

Let amount of Swiss cheese she can get = b

Hence,

(Cost per pound of cheddar cheese * number of pounds of cheddar) + (Cost per pound of Swiss cheese * number of pounds of Swiss cheese) = total budgeted amount

(3 * a) + (5 * b) = $30

$3a + $5b = $30

Is y=10.2x a proportional relationship?

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes!

The condition needed to get a proportional answer is the y intercept must be 0. No other value can be added on. It doesn't matter that the constant of proportionality is not an integer. x and y will always differ by 10.2 as a multiplied value

Put another way, the fraction y/x will always give 10.2
