Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y=-0.75x and that passes through the point (8,0)

1 answer:

8 0

So for a linear line to be parallel to another line, they have to have the same slopes. The given line has a slope of -.75

If we use the point slope formula, which is y - y1 = m( x - x1 ) we can plug in the slope and the point that the line must go through to get the new line.

y - 0 = -.75( x - 8 )

y = -0.75x + 6

The equation of the line that is parallel to y = -0.75x and passes through (8,0) is

y = -0.75x + 6

Which exponential equation is equivalent to the logarithmic equation below? c = ln 2

Sophie [7]

$\text{A logarithmic lemma: } \\ \text{It follows that: } \log_a a = 1$
$\text{Following this property, we can see that: } a^{\log_{a} a} = a$
$\text{Furthermore, we can create more general properties: } a^{\log_a b} = b$

$c = \log_e 2 \Rightarrow e^{c} = e^{\log_e 2} \\ \text{Using our third property, we see that: } e^{c} = 2$
$\text{And finally, this works for any } \log_{a} b \left\{a > 0, b \in \mathbb{R}\right\}$
