Answer:

The equation of a line through (5 -3) that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the slope of the line whose equation we need to find is m 1.

The line parallel to the needed line  is:   y=1/2x+3

Comparing it with the general form: y = m x + C

we get m 2 = 1/2

Now, as Line 1 is Perpendicular to Line 2.

⇒ m 1 x m 2  = -1

⇒ m 1 x ( 1/2)  = -1

⇒ m 1  = - 2

Also, the point son the line 1 is given as: (x,y)  = (5,-3)

Put the value of point and Slope in y = m x + C to find the value of Y- INTERCEPT.

we get: -3 = (-2) (5) +  C

or, C = -3 + 10 = 7

⇒ C = 7

The general line equation is given as:  y = m x + C

Substituting  the values of C and m, we get:

y = - 2 x  + 7

Hence, the equation of a line through 5 -3 that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

The probability of spinning a 4 on a spinner is 0.125.If you spun 150 times approximately how many times would the spinner land
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, all we need to do is 150 * 0.125 ≈ 18.75 which rounds to 19. We round to the nearest integer because you can't land on the 4 18.75 times.

Jesse surveyed 3/4 of the students at her school. Of those surveyed, 2/3 participate in school club or sports team. According to
OLga [1]
3/4 * 2/3 = > 6/12 ; Then you simplify it and the answer will be 1/2. Therefore the fraction of the students who participated in a school club/sports team is 1/2.
