Write an equation (a) in slope-intercept form and (b) in standard form for the line passing through (-3,5) and parallel to x + 4

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Standard-form :x + 4y -17=0 }\\$

$\boxed{\sf Slope-intercept\ form :y =\dfrac{-1}{4}x +\dfrac{17}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here a equation of the line is given to us and we need to find out the equation of line which passes through the given point and parallel to the given line , the given equation is ,

$\longrightarrow x + 4y = 7\\$

Firstly convert it into slope intercept form of the line which is y = mx + x , as ;

$\longrightarrow 4y = -x + 7 \\$

$\longrightarrow y =\dfrac{-x}{4}+\dfrac{7}{4}\\$

On comparing it to y = mx + c , we have ,

$\longrightarrow m =\dfrac{-1}{4}\\$

$\longrightarrow c =\dfrac{7}{4}\\$

Now as we know that the slope of two parallel lines is same . Therefore the slope of the parallel line will be ,

$\longrightarrow m_{||)}=\dfrac{-1}{4}\\$

Now we may use point slope form of the line as ,

$\longrightarrow y - y_1 = m(x-x_1) \\$

On substituting the respective values ,

$\longrightarrow y - 5 =\dfrac{-1}{4}\{ x -(-3)\}\\$

$\longrightarrow y -5=\dfrac{-1}{4}(x+3)\\$

$\longrightarrow 4(y -5 ) =-1(x +3) \\$

$\longrightarrow 4y -20 = - x -3 \\$

$\longrightarrow x + 4y -20+3=0\\$

$\longrightarrow \underset{Standard \ Form }{\underbrace{\underline{\underline{ x + 4y -17=0}}}} \\$

Again the equation can be rewritten as ,

$\longrightarrow y - 5 = \dfrac{-1}{4}(x +3) \\$

$\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{-1}{4}x -\dfrac{3}{4}+5 \\$

$\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{-1}{4}x -\dfrac{20-3}{4} \\$

$\longrightarrow \underset{Slope-Intercept\ form }{\underbrace{\underline{\underline{ y =\dfrac{-1}{4}x +\dfrac{17}{4}}}}}\\$

3=c/5+2... how do I solve for c??

expeople1 [14]

Primeiro Você IRA Dividir o c (APENAS Colocar 5 + 2 embaixo do c). Depois faça a soma 5 + 2 = 7. Então faça o mmc (mínimo múltiplo comum) entre 7 e 1(o 1 é invisível, mas continua estando embaixo do 3). Deu 7 o mmc. Transforme seus números em frações, com o denominador 7. Transforme os números em frações o 3 virá 21, pois você divide em baixo e multiplica em baixo, e o c continua normal, pois já estava em baixo de 7. Como é para descobrir uma incógnita você tira os denominadores e ficará 21 = c.

3 = c/5 + 2
3 = c/7
21/7 = c/7
21 = c
