Answer:

y = -\frac{1}{3} x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: y = -\frac{1}{3} x + 4 and passes through the point (6, 5).

Here we have to find the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line.

If the two lines are parallel, then their slopes must be the same.

From the given equation, the slope(m) = -\frac{1}{3}

So the slope of the parallel line also will be the same.

Now we have to find the y-intercept of the parallel line.

The general form of slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

We know m = -\frac{1}{3} and it is passes through the point (6, 5)

Here x = 6 and y = 5

Now plug in these values in the above slope-intercept and find the y-intercept.

5 = -\frac{1}{3} *6 + b

5 = -2 + b

Adding 2 on both sides, we get

b = 5 + 2

b = 7

Now we got slope (m) = -1/3 and y-intercept(b) = 7

So the required equation is y = -\frac{1}{3} x + 7

Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of y = -1/3 x + 4 is -1/3.

The equation is

(y - 5) = -1/3 (x - 6)

y = -1/3 x -1/3 (- 6) + 5 = -1/3 x + 2 + 5 = -1/3 + 7

The equation is: y = - 1/3 x + 7

y = -1/3 x

Vern sold his 1964 Ford Mustang for $55,000 and wants to invest the money to earn him 3.6% interest per year. He will put some o
noname [10]

Answer: He should invest $44000 in fund A and $11000 in fund B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount which he invested in fund A.

Let y represent the amount which he invested in fund B.

Vern sold his 1964 Ford Mustang for $55,000 and wants to invest the money to earn him 3.6% interest per year. He will put some of the money into Fund A that earns 2% per year and the rest in Fund B that earns 10% per year.. This means that

x + y = 55000

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Considering fund A,

P = $x

T = 1 year

R = 2℅

I = (x × 2 × 1)/100 = 0.02x

Considering fund B,

P = $y

T = 1 year

R = 10℅

I = (y × 10 × 1)/100 = 0.1y

The interest that he wants to earn on the total amount in a year is 3.6%. The interest would be

I = (55000 × 3.6 × 1)/100 = 1980

Therefore,

0.02x + 0.1y = 1980 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 55000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.02(55000 - y) + 0.1y = 1980

1100 - 0.02y + 0.1y = 1980

- 0.02y + 0.1y = 1980 - 1100

0.08y = 880

y = 880/0.08

y = 11000

x = 55000 - y = 55000 - 11000

x = 44000

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 9/212 = #mph

b)

1)9 inches divide the length value by 63360 is 0.000142045 Miles

2) 1 hour  3600 seconds in ones hour so 1/3600 =0.000277778

3) take miles/hour

0.000142045 Miles / 0.000277778 hours = # mph
