Answer:
To move from (a, b) to (a, -b) move down 2b. The point (a, -b) would be in quadrant 4 and would be a reflection across the x-axis of the point (a, b)
Step-by-step explanation:
So you know that 1 cubic foot is equal to 80 pounds. So, the first point would be (1,80).
You can find the other points by multiply 80 by a number, and when I did that, I got (2,160) and (3,240) too.
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
y = ⅔x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The line that is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24, would have the same slope as the line, 2x - 3y = 24.
Rewrite;
2x - 3y = 24
-3y = -2x + 24
Divide both sides by -3
y = ⅔x - 8
Thus, the slope of 2x - 3y = 24 is ⅔.
Therefore the line that is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24, will have a slope (m) of ⅔.
Using point-slope form, we can generate an equation that passes through (-3, -7) and is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24.
Thus, substitute (a, b) = (-3, -7) and m = ⅔ into y - b = m(x - a)
Therefore:
y - (-7) = ⅔(x - (-3))
y + 7 = ⅔(x + 3)
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
Multiply both sides by 3
3(y + 7) = 2(x + 3)
3y + 21 = 2x + 6
3y = 2x + 6 - 21
3y = 2x - 15
Divide both sides by 3
y = ⅔x - 5
It would be 3/10 because you have to create a common denominator. That would be 10. 3x2=6 and 5x2=10, so 3/5 would become 6/10, which is equivalent. If you kept the denominators the same and subtracted the numerators, you would get 3/10.
