Blizzard [7]

Answer:

**Solving Steps**

2 x (2 x X - 6) = 84

4x-12=84

84+12=96

96/4 = 24

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line parallel to y= -7x-9 that passes through the point (4,9). Show your work.

MrRa [10]

Answer: y=-7x + 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines will have the same slope but different y-intercepts so again we can use the coordinates to determine the y intercept of the new equation.

So we know that the slope intercept formula is y=mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept so we will input the x and y coordinates to solve for b.

9 = -7(4) + b

9 = -28 + b

+28 +28

b = 37

The equation will be y= -7x + 37

The letters r and Θ represent polar coordinates. perform the following.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$\boxed{(x - \frac{1 }{ 2})^{2} + y^{2} = \frac{21 }{ 4}}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$r = \frac{5}{r - cos\theta}\\r^{2} - rcos\theta = 5\\\\$

$\text{Use the relationships}\\r^{2} = x^{2} + y^{2}; cos\theta = \frac{ x}{r }\\$

$\begin{array}{ll}x^{2} + y^{2} - r(\frac{x }{r }) = 5 & \text{Made the substitutions } \\x^{2} + y^{2} - x = 5 & \text{Simplified } \\x^{2} -x + y^{2} = 5 & \text{Rearranged } \\x^{2} -x + \frac{1 }{ 4} + y^{2}= 5 + \frac{1 }{ 4} & \text{Completed the square } \\(x - \frac{1 }{ 2})^{2} + y^{2}= \frac{21 }{ 4} & \text{Wrote as sum of squares} \\\end{array}\\\\$

$\text{This is the equation of a circle with centre at (0.5, 0 ) and radius equal to}\\\frac{\sqrt{21} }{ 2} \approx 2.291\\$

$\boxed{(x - \frac{1 }{ 2})^{2} + y^{2}= \frac{21 }{ 4}}\\$
