Answer: (1) y = -3x/2 + 6

(2) y = 2x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope - intercept form is given as :

y = mx + c , where m is the slope and c is the y - intercept.

Two lines are said to be parallel if they have the same slope , that is if the slope of the first line is M1 and the slope of the second line is M2 , if they are parallel, M1 = M2.

(1) the equation of the given line is 3x + 2y = 1 , to find the slope of the line parallel to it , we must write the equation in slope - intercept form.

3x + 2y = 1

make y the subject of the formula

2y = -3x + 1

y = -3x/2 + 1/2

comparing with y = mx + c , the slope is -3/2 , we can now find the equation of the second line since the slope is known and it passes through the point (-6,15) using the formula:

y - y_{1} = m( x - x_{1})

y - 15 = \frac{-3}{2} ( x -{-6} )

y - 15 = \frac{-3}{2}(x + 6)

2 (y - 15) = -3 (x +6)

2y - 30 = -3x - 18

2y = -3x - 18 + 30

2y = -3x +12

y = -3x/2 + 6

This gives the equation that is parallel to 3x+2y = 1

(2) Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slope is -1 , that is if M1 is the slope of the first line and M2 is the slope of the second line , then M1.M2 = -1 , that is

m_{1} = \frac{-1}{m_{2} }

The equation of the line given is x + 2y = 8 , we have to write it in slope - intercept form to find the slope.

x + 2y = 8

2y = -x + 8

y = -x/2 + 4

The slope is -1/2 , the slope that is perpendicular to it is therefore 2.

We can now find the equation using the formula

y - y_{1} = m( x - x_{1})

y - (-2) = 2 ( x - 5)

y + 2 = 2x - 10

y = 2x -10 - 2

y = 2x - 12

Therefore , the equation of line perpendicular to x + 2y = 8 is y = 2x - 12

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

(1)

Rearrange 3x + 2y = 1 into this form by subtracting 3x from both sides

2y = - 3x + 1 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + \frac{1}{2} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{3}{2}

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 6, 15) into the partial equation

15 = 9 + c ⇒ c = 15 - 9 = 6

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + 6 ← equation of line

(2)

Rearrange x + 2y = 8 into slope- intercept form by subtracting x from both sides

2y = - x + 8 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{2}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2} } = 2, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = 10 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 10 = - 12

y = 2x - 12 ← equation of line

A company wants to decrease their energy use by 16%.if their electric bill currently 2,2000 a month what will their be if they a
lyudmila [28]

The bill will be 18,480 if they are successful.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Current bill of company = 22000

Energy usage to decrease = 16%

Amount of decreased usage = 16% of current bill

Amount of decreased usage = \frac{16}{100}*22000

Amount of decreased usage = 0.16*22000

Amount of decreased usage = 3520

Bill after decreased usage = Current bill - Amount of decreased usage

Bill after decreased usage = 22000 - 3520 = 18480

The bill will be 18,480 if they are successful.

On Tuesday, Karen finished all her chores in 3/4 of an hour. On Wednesday, she finished her chores in 5/12 of an hour. How much
IRISSAK [1]
1 hour = 60 minutes

Tuesday: 60 divided by 4 = 15. Karen did it 3/4 of a hour so we multiply 15 by 4 which is 45. 45 equals 45 minutes. On Tuesday, Karen finished her chores in 45 minutes

Wednesday: first we divide 60 by 12 which is 5. 5 would equal 5 minutes. now we multiply 5 by 5 which is 25. Karen finished her chores in 25 minutes.

Answer: Karen finished her chores 20 minutes faster on Wednesday than Tuesday.

Hope this helps!

For which intervals the graphs of the functions f(x) = x^3 + x^2 - 4x - 4 is positive
Nookie1986 [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a function

f

(

x

)

which is twice differentiable. The graph of such a function will be concave upwards in the intervals where the second derivative is positive and the graph will be concave downwards in the intervals where the second derivative is negative. To find these intervals we need to find the inflection points i.e. the x-values where the second derivative is 0.

Write a polynomial function f of least degree that has rational coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and the zeros 4 and 3−
Neko [114]

Answer:

P(x) = x^3 - 10x^2+ 34x-40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p =1 -- Leading coefficient

Zeros: 4\ and\ 3  - i

Required

Determine the polynomial

Represent the zeros with a and b

Such that

a = 4

b = 3 - i

The polynomial is:

P(x) = p * (x - a) * (x - b)

P(x) = 1 * (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))

However, to solve further: We need to symmetrise over 3-i  and its conjugate

P(x) = 1 * (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))* (x - (3 + i))

P(x) =  (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))* (x - (3 + i))\\\\

To define a suitable function, the expression becomes

P(x) =  (x - 4) * ((x - 3)^2+1)

P(x) =  (x - 4) * ((x - 3)(x - 3)+1)

P(x) =  (x - 4) * (x^2 - 6x + 9+1)

P(x) =  (x - 4) * (x^2 - 6x +10)

Open bracket

P(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 +10x - 4x^2 + 24x-40

P(x) = x^3 - 6x^2  - 4x^2+10x + 24x-40

P(x) = x^3 - 10x^2+ 34x-40
