You forgot to include the given line.

We need the given line to find the slope. The slope of parallel lines are equal. So, the slope of the line of the equation you are looking for is the same slope of the given line.

I can explain you the procedure to help you to find the desired equation:

1) Slope

Remember that the slope-intercept equation form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is thye y-intercept.

If you clear y in every equation you get:

a) y = (3/4)x + 17/4 => slope = 3/4

b) y = (3/4)x + 20/4 = (3/4)x + 5 => slope = 3/4

c) y = -(4/3)x - 2/3 => slope = -4/3

d) y = (-4/3)x - 6/3 = (-4/3)x - 2 => slope = -4/3

So, you just have to compare the slope of the given line with the above slopes to see which equations are candidates.

2) Point (-3,2)

You  must verify which equations pass through the point (-3,2).

a) 3x - 4y = - 17

3(-3) - 4(2) =  -17
- 9 - 8 = - 17
- 17 = - 17 => it is candidate

b) 3x - 4y = - 20

- 17 ≠ - 20 => it is not candidate

c) 4x + 3y = - 2

4(-3) + 3(2) = - 2
-12 + 6 = - 2
-6 ≠ -2 => it is not candidate

d) 4x + 3y = - 6

   -6 = - 6 => it is candidate

3) So, the point (-3,2) permits to select two candidates

3x - 4y = - 17, and 4x + 3y = -6.

4) Yet you have to find the slope of the given equation, if it is 3/4 the solutions is the equation 3x - 4y = -17; if it is -4/3 the solution is the equation 4x + 3y = -6.

Write the explicit formula for the geometric sequence.
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

the n th term ( explicit formula ) of a geometric sequence is

• a_{n} = a_{1}(r)^{n-1}

where r is the common ratio and a_{1} the first term

here r = \frac{8}{16} = \frac{16}{32} = \frac{1}{2} and a_{1} = 64, hence

a_{n} = 64(0.5)^{n-1} → D

Answer:

<h2> <em><u>384</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Given</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>

Dimensions of the rectangular prism = 9ft, 12ft and 4ft

<em><u>Therefore</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>

Surface area of the rectangular prism

= 2( lb + bh + lh)

= 2(12 \times 9 + 9 \times 4 + 12 \times 4) {ft}^{2}

= 2(108 + 36 + 48) {ft}^{2}

= 2 \times 192 {ft}^{2}

= 384 {ft}^{2}

<em><u>Hence</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

<em><u>Surface</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>area</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>rectangular</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>prism</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>384</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>sq</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>ft</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Ans</u></em><em><u>)</u></em>

A student is evaluating the expression below for n = 3.7
iVinArrow [24]

Given expression : 12.3 + 6 (n - 0.5)

Step 1 : substitute n = 3.7

12.3 + 6 (3.7 - 0.5)

Step 2 : Simplify the parenthesis

12.3 + 6 (3.2 )

Step 3 : Do the multiplication and open the parenthesis

12.3 + 19.2

Step 4 : Add the two number

12.3 + 19.2 = 31.5

So the answer of the given expression when n = 3.7 is 31.5
