\text{Let}\ k:y=m_1x+b_1\ \text{and}\ l:y=m_2x+b_2,\ \text{then}\\\\l\ \parallel\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\\text{Convert the equation to the slope-intercept form}\ y=mx+b.\\\\2x+y=4\qquad\text{subtract 2x from both sides}\\\\y=-2x+4\to m_1=-2\\\\Amswer:\ \boxed{slope=-2}

How to find slope and y intercept 6x-5y=15?
iogann1982 [59]
We need to put this equation in y = mx + b form because in this form, the slope will be in the m position and the y intercept will be in the b position. So basically, we solve for y.

6x - 5y = 15 ....subtract 6x from both sides
-5y = -6x + 15...divide both sides by -5
(-5/-5)y = (-6/-5)x + (15/-5)...simplify
y = 6/5x - 3

y = mx + b...remember, m is ur slope and b is ur y int
y = (6/5)x + (-3).....ur slope(m) = 6/5 and ur y int (b) = -3

26,) If y varies inversely as x, and y = 5 as x = 6, find y for the x-value of 10.
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

the initial statement is  

y ∝ 1 /x

 to convert to an equation multiply by k the constant

of variation

y = k × 1 /x = k /x

to find k use the given condition

y = 5  when  x = 6

y = k/ x ⇒ k = y x = 5 × 6 = 30

y = 30 /x

when  

x = 10

then

y = 30 /10 = 3

W+3 3/8=1 5/6 what is the answer
Annette [7]

W + 3 3/8 = 1 5/6;

W = 1 5/6 - 3 3/8;

W = 11/6 - 27/8;

W = 11/(2*3) - 27/(2*4);

W = (11*4 - 27*3)/(2*3*4);

W = (44 - 81)/24;

W = -37/24 = -1 13/24;

NEED HELP ON ALL OF THESE PLEASE
tangare [24]

Answer:

1) 2670m^2

2) 4718 in^2

3) 4730 ft^2

4) 7900cm^2

5) 11 542mm^2

6) 3740m^2

7) 6374m^2

8) 2824 ft^2

9) 6004mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangular prism = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

Where,

w = width

l = length

h = height

1) Area of a rectangular prism = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

h = 10m; l = 31m; w = 25m

Area = 2(25m)(31m) + 2(31m)(10m) + 2(10m)(25m)

= 2(775m^2) + 2(310m^2) + 2(250m^2)

= 1550m^2 + 620m^2 + 500m^2

= 2670m^2

2) Area of a rectangular prism = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

h = 21 in; l = 35 in; w = 29 in

Area = 2(29in)(35in) + 2(35in)(21in) + 2(21in)(29in)

= 2(1015in^2) + 2(735in^2) + 2(609in^2)

= 2030in^2 + 1470in^2 + 1218in^2

= 4718 in^2

3) Area of a rectangular prism = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

h = 19 ft; l = 39ft; w = 28ft

Area = 2(28ft)(39ft) + 2(39ft)(19ft) + 2(19ft)(28ft)

= 4730 ft^2

4) Area of a rectangular prism = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw

h = 24,cm; l = 49cm; w = 38cm

Area = 2(38cm)(49cm) + 2(49cm)(24cm) + 2(24cm)(38cm)

= 7900cm^2

5) 11 542mm^2

6) 3740m^2

7) 6374m^2

8) 2824 ft^2

9) 6004mm^2

Note : Kindly follow the same process for the remaining questions, you'd get their correct answers. I can't finish up due to time constraints. However, you may send me a direct message for the remaining answers. Thank you.
