Find the equation of the line: parallel to 3x−y=11 through (−2, 0).

Answer:

I believe it is:

slope-intercept form: y=3x+6

standard form: -3x+y=6 or 3x-y=-6

point slope-form: y-0=3(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I put 3x-y=11 into slope-intercept form:

Subtract 3x from both sides: 3x-3x-y=11-3x

That becomes -y=-3x+11

Divide both sides by -1: -y/-1=(-3x+11)/-1

That becomes y=3x-11\

Then, the definition of a parallel line is having the same slope but different y-intercepts, so I dropped the -11 as the y-intercept, and I rewrote the equation as y=3x+b, where b is the y-intercept.

Now, I have to find the y-intercept of the parallel line, so I plug the coordinates (-2,0) into the equation for x and y to solve for the y-intercept

Write the equation out with what you have so far: y=3x+b

Substitute the coordinates (-2,0) in for x and y: 0=3(-2)+b

That becomes 0=-6+b

Add 6 to both sides: 0+6=-6+6+b

That becomes 6=b, which means that 6 is your y-intercept.

Finally, you have gathered everything you need to write the parallel line in equation format.

The parallel line's equation is

in slope-intercept form: y=3x+6

in standard form: -3x+y=6 or 3x-y=-6

in point-slope form: y-0=3(x+2)

Solve s=2(lw+lh+wh) for w
Scilla [17]

                                                                   s = 2(lw + lh + wh)

Divide each side by  2 :                            s/2 = lw + lh + wh

Subtract 'lh' from each side:                s/2 - lh = lw + wh

Combine the 'w' terms:                        s/2 - lh = w(l + h)

Divide each side by (l + h):  (s/2 - lh) / (l + h) = w

5/8 + 3/4 -2/3 - 5\6​
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

5/8+3/4-2/3-5/6

= ( 5/8 + 3/4 ) - ( 2/3 + 3/4)

= ( 11/8) - (17 /12)

= 11/8 - 17/12

= 33-34 /24

= -1/24 (ans)

Hope it helps
