The area of a square ice rink is 400 yd.². What is the perimeter of the rink in yards

Answer:

80 yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the formula for squares is s^2, we can use this to set up an equation, which is

s^2=400

If we square root this, we get

s=20

The perimeter formula for a square is 4s, so if we plug in, we end up with 80 yd^2

Answer:

-3x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x - 2) to find the equivalent of this expression, we need to multiply inside the parenthesis with -3 (with both x and -2)

-3(x - 2 = -3x + 6 (two negative expressions multiplied results in positive)

If a certain brand of icecream is 99% fat free, how many cups would you have to eat to ingest the same amount of fat that would

sdas [7]

Answer:

10,000 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct proportional quantities are such that their quotients are always the same number. Example: If I need one cup of sugar to prepare 5 candies, I will need 2 cups of sugar to prepare 10 candies. The quotient 5/1 is equal to the quotient 10/2

Let's suppose a cup of regular ice cream would have 100 parts of fat.

The brand of ice cream mentioned in the question is 99% fat-free which means for every cup of their ice cream, we'll only get 1 part of fat. The relation is 100/1.

If we wanted 100 parts of fat out of fat-free ice cream we would need 100*100/1=10,000 cups of it

These numbers won't change if we used another number instead of 100 in the example shown.

Which equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x − 4y = 7 and passes through the point (−4, −2)? Select two options.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

2 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx-b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The point-slope form of a line is y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.

The standard form a line is ax+by=c.

So anyways parallel lines have the same slope.

So if we are looking for a line parallel to 3x-4y=7 then we need to know the slope of this line so we can find the slope of our parallel line.

3x-4y=7

Goal: Put into slope-intercept form

3x-4y=7

Subtract 3x on both sides:

-4y=-3x+7

Divide both sides by -4:

$y=\frac{-3}{-4}x+\frac{7}{-4}$

Simplify:

$y=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{-7}{4}$

So the slope of this line is 3/4. So our line that is parallel to this one will have this same slope.

So we know our line should be in the form of $y=\frac{3}{4}x+b$ .

To find b we will use the point that is suppose to be on our new line here which is (x,y)=(-4,-2).

So plugging this in to solve for b now:

$-2=\frac{3}{4}(-4)+b$

$-2=-3+b$

$3-2=b$

$b=1$

so the equation of our line in slope-intercept form is $y=\frac{3}{4}x+1$

So that isn't option 1 because the slope is different. That was the only option that was in slope-intercept form.

The standard form of a line is ax+by=c and we have 2 options that look like that.

So let's rearrange the line that we just found into that form.

$y=\frac{3}{4}x+1$

Clear the fractions because we only want integer coefficients by multiplying both sides by 4.

This gives us:

$4y=3x+4$

Subtract 3x on both sides:

$-3x+4y=4$

I don't see this option either.

Multiply both sides by -1:

$3x-4y=-4$

I do see this as a option. So far the only option that works is 2.

Let's look at point slope form now.

We had the point that our line went through was (x1,y1)=(-4,-2) and the slope,m, was 3/4 (we found this earlier).

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Plug in like so:

y-(-2)=3/4(x-(-4))

y+2=3/4 (x+4)

So option 5 looks good too.

Write the equation of the line that passes through (-6,0) and is parallel to the line y=5x-43

AVprozaik [17]

The equation of the line that passes through (-6,0) and is parallel to the line y = 5x - 43 in slope intercept is y = 5x + 30

Solution:

Given that line that passes through (-6, 0) and is parallel to the line y = 5x - 43

We have to find the equation of line

Let us first find slope of line having equation y = 5x - 43

The slope intercept form of line is given as:

y = mx + c ------- eqn 1

Where "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y - intercept

On comparing equation of line y = 5x - 43 with slope intercept form y = mx + c,

we get m = 5

Thus slope of given line is 5

We know that slopes of parallel lines are equal

Thus the slope of line parallel to given line is also 5

Now let us find equation of line having slope "5" and passes through (-6, 0)

Substitute m = 5 and (x, y) = (-6, 0) in eqn 1

y = mx + c

0 = 5(-6) + c

Thus the required equation is:

Substitute c = 30 and m = 5 in eqn 1

y = 5x + 30

Thus the required equation of line is found
