Answer: y=(-1/4)x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Which of the following lines is parallel to the line y=(-1/4)x+5

Two lines are parallel to each other if they have the same slope,

Slope of line 1 = slope of line 2

Looking at y=(-1/4)x+5,

we will compare it with the slope-intercept equation, y= mx+c

Slope of y=(-1/4)x+5 = -1/4

Now let's examine the options to see the one such that has the same value with our slope , -1/4

1) y=4x+7

From this equation, slope = 4

4 × -1/4= -1

This means lines (-1/4)x+5 and y=4x+7 are not parallel to each other since their slopes are unequal

2)y=-4x-5, slope = -4

This means lines (-1/4)x+5 and y=4x-5 are not parallel to each other since their slopes are unequal.

3)y=(-1/4)x-3

slope = -1/4

This means lines (-1/4)x+5 and y= (-1/4)x-3 are parallel to each other since their slopes are equal. This means equations y=(-1/4)x-3 and y=(-1/4)x+5

are parallel.

In conclusion, line y=(-1/4)x-3 is parallel to y=(-1/4)x+5

Simplified form of 4(12x+16)
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The given expression simplified is <em>48x + 64.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving this problem entails of simplifying the expression provided. We'll use the distributive law, or the distributive property, to write the expression in the simplest form.

Distributive law states:

  • a(b + c) ⟶ (a × b) + (a × c)

We know that...

  • a = 4
  • b = 12x
  • c = 16

Following the rules of distributive law, we can set up the expression to match this property.

a(b + c)  ⟶  4(12x + 16)  ⟶  (4 × 12x) + (4 × 16)

The expression will now be easier to simplify. Here, the last step would be to multiply the terms within the parentheses. Remember that we <u>cannot</u> multiply a number by a variable. When you multiply '4' by '12x', just multiply twelve and four, and leave the variable as is.

(4 × 12x) + (4 × 16)

48x + (4 × 16)

48x + 64

Think back on what I mentioned earlier about not being able to multiply a number by a variable. The same rule applies to adding two terms, in which one is a constant and the other consists of a coefficient <u>and variable</u>. Our simplified expression has '48x', which is a coefficient and variable, and '64', which is a constant. This means we cannot add these two terms together.

Our expression seems to be in the simplest form because no further actions can be taken. The correct answer should be <em>48x + 64.</em>

The function f is continuous son the interval [2, 10] with some of its values given in the table below. Use a right Riemann Sum
Marta_Voda [28]

The 4 subintervals are given: [2, 4], [4, 7], [7, 9], and [9, 10].

Each subinterval has length: 4 - 2 = 2, 7 - 4 = 3, 9 - 7 = 2, and 10 - 9 = 1.

Over each subinterval, we take the value of the function at the right endpoint: 3, 8, 15, and 18.

Then the integral is approximately

\displaystyle\int_2^{10}f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx3\cdot2+8\cdot3+15\cdot2+18\cdot1=78

so 78.0 is the correct answer.
