Write an equation of the line that passes through (2, -5) and is parallel to the line 2y = 3x + 10

First you get "y" by itself. To do so you divide 2 on both sides.

y = 3/2x + 5

To write an equation of a line that is PARALLEL to this equation, the slopes have to be the SAME. So the slope is 3/2.

You then use the equation:

y = mx + b

SInce you know "m" you plug it in.

y = 3/2x + b

Now you need to find b. To do so you plug in the point (2, -5) into this equation.

-5 = 3/2(2) + b

-5 = 3 + b

-8 = b

Finally you plug in b and you get your new equation.

y = 3/2x - 8

Answer:

For more than 35 miles company A will charge less than company B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us write the equation of the cost of each company

Company A:

∵ Company A charges $96 for unlimited mileage

∴ The cost of company A = 96

Company B:

∵ Company B charges an initial fee of $75

∵ It charges $0.6 for every mile driven

∵ The number of miles is m

- Multiply m by 0.6 and add 75 to the product

∴ The cost of company B = 75 + 0.6 m

∵ Company A will charge less than company b

∴ 96 < 75 + 0.6 m

- Subtract 75 from both sides

∴ 21 < 0.6 m

- Divide both sides by 0.6

∴ 35 < m

- That means m is greater than 35

∴ m > 35

For more than 35 miles company A will charge less than company B

How do I prove that the figure is a rectangle ? <br> I really need help I don’t know what to do.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

If all angles in a quadrilateral are right angles, then it’s a rectangle (reverse of the rectangle definition). (Actually, you only need to show that three angles are right angles — if they are, the fourth one is automatically a right angle as well.)

If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then it’s a rectangle (neither the reverse of the definition nor the converse of a property).

If a parallelogram contains a right angle, then it’s a rectangle (neither the reverse of the definition nor the converse of a property).

Tip: Do the following to visualize why this method works: Take an empty cereal box and push in the top flaps. If you then look into the empty box, the top of the box makes a rectangular shape, right? Now, start to crush the top of the box — you know, like you want to make it flat before putting it in the trash. As you start to crush the top of the box, you see a parallelogram shape. Now, after you’ve crushed it a bit, if you take this parallelogram and make one of the angles a right angle, the whole top has to become a rectangle again. You can’t make one of the angles a right angle without the other three also becoming right angles.
