What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line x=-2and passes through the point (-5, 4)?

First, it is important to understand that any equation that is x=some number is just a vertical line that hits the x-axis at the given number. For example, x=-2 would be a vertical line hitting the x-axis at -2. Therefore, the line we are trying to identify would also be vertical (and have the form x=some number) because we know the lines are parallel. Then, since we're given the point (-5,4), we know the line needs to hit the x-axis at -5, therefore the equation would be x=-5.

I hope this helps.

Answer:

11 * 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Since to decompose a fraction means to basically take it apart, that's all we have to do!

Breaking down the fraction, we can see that it is composed of a bunch of 1/4.

(As an improper fraction below.)

$\frac{11}{4}$ .

That's just $11 \cdot \frac{1}{4}$ .

Thus, the answer is $\boxed{11\:\cdot\:\frac{1}{4}}$ .

Hope this helps!

If f(x) = kx^3+ x^2 − kx + 2, find a number k such that the graph of f contains the point (k, -10)

Elina [12.6K]

If we write $k$ where we see $x$ in the equation and set the result equal to $-10$ , we get the result.
