Passing through (-6,-1) and parallel to y=-2/3x +1

Hello!

To find the line parallel to the line y = -2/3x + 1 and passing through the point (-6, -1), we will need to know that if two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equivalent to each other.

Since we are given the slope, we need to find the y-intercept of the line. We can find the y-intercept by substituting the point (-6, -1) into a new equation with the slope of m = -2/3. Remember that slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.

y = -2/3x + b (substitute the ordered pair)

-1 = -2/3(-6) + b

-1 = 4 + b (subtract 4 from both sides)

-5 = b

Therefore, the equation of the line passing through the point (-6, -1) and parallel to y = -2/3x + 1 is y = -2/3x - 5.

Answer:

  see the attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

The x- and y-intercepts are easily found:

<u><em>X-intercept</em></u>

Set y = 0 and divide by the coefficient of x.

  -x +0 = 8

  x = -8

__

<u><em>Y-intercept</em></u>

Set x = 0 and divide by the coefficient of y.

  0 -2y = 8

  y = -4

__

Now, we have two points on the graph: (-8, 0) and (0, -4). A third point can be one that is halfway between these: (-4, -2). The graph is attached.

Jack Watkins earns a base salary of $1500 a month, plus a 4% commission on the sales he makes. What is his gross pay of his sale
san4es73 [151]
<span>Jack Watkins earns a base salary of $1500 a month, plus a 4% commission on the sales he makes. What is his gross pay of his sales for the month are $8000. 
solution:
Gross pay=(salary)+(commissions)
base salary=$1500
commission=4%
monthly sales=$8000
commissions earned in cash
=4/100</span>×8000
=$320

thus
Gross salary=320+1500=$1820

Answer:

473 yd^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the square base is (11 yd)^2, or 121 yd^2.

The surface area of one of the slanting sides of the pyramid is

A = (1/2)(b)(h), which comes to A = (1/2)(11 yd)(16 yd) = 88 yd^2.

Thus, four such sides have a combined surface area of 352 yd^2.

Combining the surface areas of the slanting sides with the base area yields 473 yd^3

The length of one leg of a right triangle is 24 ft, and the length of the hypotenuse is 40 ft.
Mila [183]
H^2=x^2+y^2

y^2=h^2-x^2

y^2=40^2-24^2

y^2=1024

y=√1024

y=32 ft
