Find an equation of a line that is parallel to 5x - 3y = 6 and passes through the point (6, –2).

1 answer:

8 0

well, bearing in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope hmmmm wait a second, what's the slope of 5x - 3y = 6 anyway?

$\bf 5x-3y=6\implies -3y=-5x+6\implies y=\cfrac{-5x+6}{-3} \\\\\\ y=-\cfrac{5x}{-3}+\cfrac{6}{-3}\implies y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{5}{3}} x-2\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 5/3 and runs through (6,-2)

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies \cfrac{5}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-2)=\cfrac{5}{3}(x-6) \\\\\\ y+2=\cfrac{5}{3}x-10\implies y=\cfrac{5}{3}x-12$

Which transformation of Figure A results in Figure A' ?

MariettaO [177]

Option B: a counterclockwise rotation of 90° about the origin

Explanation:

From the graph, we can see the coordinates of the figure A are (0,2), (-1,6) and (-4,4)

The coordinates of the figure A' are (-2,0), (-6,-1) and (-4,-4)

<u>Option B: a counterclockwise rotation of 90° about the origin </u>

The transformation rule for a coordinate to reflect a counterclockwise rotation of 90° about the origin is given by

$(x,y)\implies (-y,x)$

Let us substitute the coordinates of the figure A

Thus, we have,

$(0,2)\implies(-2,0)$

$(-1,6)\implies (-6,-1)$

$(-4,4)\implies(-4,-4)$

Thus, the resulting coordinates are equivalent to the coordinates of the figure A'.

Therefore, the figure is a counterclockwise rotation of 90° about the origin .

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

What are the intercepts of the function?

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

x-int: (-1, 0), (-11, 0)

y-int: (0, 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x-int, set equation equal to 0:

x² + 12x + 11

(x + 1)(x + 11)

x = -11, -1

To find y-int, set <em>x</em> = 0

f(0) = 0² + 12(0) = 11

f(0) = 11

What is the difference? StartFraction 2 x + 5 Over x squared minus 3 x EndFraction minus StartFraction 3 x + 5 Over x cubed minu

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

First option is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x + 5}{ {x}^{2} - 3x } - \frac{3x + 5}{ {x}^{3} - 9x } - \frac{x + 1}{ {x}^{2} - 9 }$

Factor out X from the expression

$\frac{2x + 5}{x(x - 3)} - \frac{3x + 5}{x( {x}^{2} - 9)} - \frac{x + 1}{ {x}^{2} - 9}$

Using ${a}^{2} - {b}^{2} = (a - b)(a + b)$ , factor the expression

$\frac{2x + 5}{x(x - 3)} - \frac{3x + 5}{x(x - 3)(x + 3) } - \frac{x + 1}{(x - 3)(x + 3)}$

Write all numerators above the Least Common Denominators x ( x - 3 ) ( x + 3 )

$\frac{(x + 3) \times (2x - 5) - (3x + 5) - x \times (x + 1)}{x(x - 3)(x + 3)}$

Multiply the parentheses

$\frac{2 {x}^{2} + 5x + 6x + 15 - (3x + 5) - x(x + 1)}{x(x - 3)(x + 3)}$

When there is a (-) in front of an expression in parentheses, change the sign of each term in the expression
