Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line ⇒ 1st

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have:

  • Same slopes
  • Different y-intercepts

The formula of the slope of a line which passes through points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{1},y_{1}) is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

∵ The given line passes through points (-12 , -2) and (0 , -4)

∴ x_{1} = -12 , x_{2} = 0

∴ y_{1} = -2 , y_{2} = -4

- Use the formula of the slope above to find the slope of the given line

∵ m=\frac{-4-(-2)}{0-(-12)}=\frac{-4+2}{12}=\frac{-2}{12}=\frac{-1}{6}

∴ The slope of the given line is \frac{-1}{6}

∵ The two lines are parallel

∴ Their slopes are equal

∴ The slope of the parallel line = \frac{-1}{6}

∵ The parallel line passes through point (0 , 6)

- The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope

  and b is the y-intercept (y when x = 0)

∵ m = \frac{-1}{6} and b = 6

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = \frac{-1}{6} x + 6

Let us check which point is on the line by substitute the x in the equation by the x-coordinate of each point to find y, if y is equal the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the line

Point (-12 , 8)

∵ x = -12 and y = 8

∵ y = \frac{-1}{6} (-12) + 6

∴ y = 2 + 6 = 8

- The value of y is equal the y-coordinate of the point

∴ Point (-12 , 8) is on the line

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line

Ramond is putting a fence around his rectangular garden shown above. Before he can build the fence, he needs to find the perimet
solniwko [45]

The gardens perimeter is 12 meters.

Explanation:

  • The garden has a 4m length and a 2m width. The perimeter of any given rectangle is two times the sum of the length and the width of the same rectangle.
  • Perimeter = 2 × (length of the rectange + width of the rectangle)

        Perimeter = 2 × (4m + 2m) = 2 × (6m) = 12 meters.

  • So the gardens perimeter is equal to 12 meters.
  • Ramond needs to buy a fence for a garden whose parameter is 12 meters.
