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

On the first 4 exams of his language class, Ishaan got an average score of 82. What does he need on the next exam to have an ove
dangina [55]

Ishaan to have a score of 97 on the next exam have an overall average of 85

What is the mean of exam scores?

The mean of exam scores is the sum of the scores divided by the number of exams taken, more like an average of all scores

Initially, average score on 4 exams is 82

average=total score/number of exams

average score on 4 exams=82

total score =unknown=assume it is

number of exams=4

82=x/4

x=4*82

x=328

In order to have an overall average score of 85, we would sum the total score of 4 exams and the fifth exam and divide by 5 exams

85=(328+y)/5

85*5=328+y

425=328+y

y=425-328

y=97

The endpoints of a line segment are at the coordinates (–6, 3, 4) and (4, –1, 2). What is the midpoint of the segment?
natulia [17]

Answer:

( - 1,1,3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the midpoint formula:

(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}, \frac{z_1+z_2}{2} )

We want to find the midpoint of the line

that has endpoints.

(\frac{ - 6+4}{2},\frac{3+ - 1}{2}, \frac{4+2}{2} )

We simplify to get;

(\frac{ - 2}{2},\frac{2}{2}, \frac{6}{2} )

This finally gives:

( - 1,1,3 )

The correct answer is A.

A group of winning ticket holders share equally 90,000,000 lottery. Before the money is divided, three more winning ticket holde
Kruka [31]

Let's assume

people were in the original group of winners as x

A group of winning ticket holders share equally 90,000,000 lottery

Before the money is divided, three more winning ticket holders are declared

so, total number of winning tickes =x+3

each persons share is reduced to 5,000,000

so, total money =5,000,000*(x+3)

and this must be equal to total money

5000000(x+3)=90,000,000

now, we can solve for x

and we get

x+3=18

Subtrac both sides by 3

x+3-3=18-3

x=15

so,

number of people were in the original group of winners is 15 ...........Answer
