Answer:

y = 2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is in "slope-intercept" form, where the slope is the coefficient of x, 2, and the intercept is the added constant, 3. The parallel line will have the same slope, but its constant will be different. We can find the constant by putting the given point into an equation with the constant as the unknown:

y = 2x + b

-1 = 2(-1) +b . . . substitute for x and y

2 -1 = b . . . . . . add 2

1 = b

So the equation for the parallel line is ...

y = 2x + 1

What is the y-intercept of the function f(x) = -x + ? 이름 를 0 3

ad-work [718]

Answer:

C. ⅓

Step-by-step explanation:

A function in slope-intercept form is written as $f(x) = mx + b$

Here, b represents the y-intercept.

So given the function, $f(x) = -\frac{2}{9}x + \frac{1}{3}$ , the y-intercept (b) would obviously be ⅓.

y-intercept = ⅓

Area=1/2bh

add them
(1/2)ab+(1/2)c^2+(1/2)ab=
ab+(1/2)c^2
ab+(1/2)(a^2+b^2)
not sure which option to pick there are different preferences on what counts as 'simplified'

4. find area
area=LW
area=105*45=4725
depends on the area of the signs
answer is
4725/(areaof1sign)
anyway, round down your answer because you will have an incomplete sign if you don't

5. area=pir^2
1/2 of it is
area=1/2pir^2
area=(1/4)^2pir^2
area=pi((1/4)r)^2
the radius is now 1/4 of what it was originally, meaning that the diameter is also 1/4 of what it is now
we need to know diamater
answer is 1/4 of current diameter

3. unclear

4. area of 1 sign not given, answer is 4725/(areaof1sign), rounded DOWN to nearest integer

5. (404 error, diameter not found) answer is 1/4 of current diameter

The product of a number and 12 is nomore than 15

allsm [11]

Answer:

As an equation, the product of a number and 12 is no more than 15 would be:

12n ≤ 15

N would represent the number.

≤ means less than or equal to, which is the same as "no more than".
