Find the slope of a line parallel to the graph of each question y=-1/2x-1

Mathematics
1 answer:
xz_007 [3.2K]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1. -1/2

2. -2/3

4. 0

5. -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. To find the slope from the equation, use the form y=mx +b by finding m.

1. y= -1/2x - 1 has m=-1/2. This is the same slope for the parallel line.

2. y = -2/3x -1 has m = -2/3. This is the same slope for the parallel line.

4. y = 6 is a line through the y-intercept 6 on the y-axis. Because this is a horizontal line, the slope is 0. A parallel line will have 0 as the slope too.

5. 3x + 4y = 12 needs to be converted to y =mx+b.

4y = -3x +12

y= -3/4 x + 3

The slope is -3/4 so the parallel line will have the same slope.

A box contains cards number 1-10. A card is drawn at random, then replaced, and a second card is drawn. What is the probability
aliina [53]
You would solve this by determining how many numbers from 1-10 can be multiples of 5.  That's obviously 5 and 10.  So that's 2/10 or reduced to 1/5.  Now the second question you have to find how many numbers from 1-10 are prime.  Prime is a number that can only be divided by 1 and itself.  So that would leave you with 1, 3, 5, 7.  I think where the trick comes into play is if you drew a 5 or 10 the first time, then you didn't place those cards back in the box, you couldn't draw them again.  So the answer would 4/10 or 2/5 if you could draw the 5 again.  Or I supposed if you had drew the 10 the first time and not the 5.  I assume however, they want you to exclude 5 and 10 because it was part of the first section of this equation.  So that would mean only 1, 3, and 7 or 3/10.

(SAT Prep) In △ABC, AB = BC = 20, DE ≈ 9.28. Approximate BD.
OLga [1]

The measure of BD ≈ 5.36

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • The side BC = BD+DE+EC.
  • The measure of BC = 20 and DE ≈ 9.28
  • The angles ∠BD and ∠EC are both equal to 15°
  • If the angles are same, then their sides are equal.

Let 'x' be the measure of BD and EC.

BC = x+9.28+x

20 = 9.28 + 2x

2x = 20-9.28

x = 10.72/2

x = 5.36 (approx.)

∴ The measure of BD ≈ 5.36

Y=2x + 4<br> y = 2(x + 2)<br> what is x
Oxana [17]

Answer:

I believe 1.) is x=y-4/2 and 2.) x=y-4/2 as well

Step-by-step explanation:

1.)

y=2x+4

-subtract 4 on both sides-

y-4=2x

-divide 2 on both sides-

x=y-4/2

2.)

y=2(x+2)

-distribute the 2-

y=2x+2

-subtract 2 on both sides-

y-2=2x

-divide 2 on both sides-

x=y-2/4

I dont know exactly if this is correct, but i hope it helps! :)

What is the vertex of the function x^2-6x+8=0 ?
3241004551 [841]
-6 / 2 = -3 so
x^2 - 6x + 8 is
(x - 3)^2 -9 + 8

= (x - 3)^2 - 1


the vertex is at (3,-1)
