Answer:

  y -5 = -(x +1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

For your given values of m=-1 and (h, k) = (-1, 5), the equation becomes ...

  y -5 = -(x +1)

Write the equation of a line that passes through the point ​(-8​,4​) and is parallel to the line y=-5x+3.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: y=-5x-36

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for two lines to be parallel they need to have the same slope. so the slope (m) of the new line needs to be -5.

slope(m) =-5

and the point (-8,4) is given to us. we can create a new equation for a line using the point slope formula because we have a slope (m=-5) and a point (-8,4)

                       

point slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)    

y-4=-5(x--8)

simplify and pay attention to negative signs

y-4=-5(x+8)

y-4=-5x-40

y=-5x-36

Solve the system by graphing. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If the system is inconsistent, enter INCONSISTENT.
seraphim [82]

Answer:

(4,2). DEPENDENT

Step-by-step explanation:

As each equation consist on two variable, both can be represented graphically on a cartesian plane. First, each expression is rewritten in explicit form:

y = 6 - x (red line) and y = x - 2 (blue line)

By the resource of graphing software, the solution is (4,2). The representation is presented below as attachment. As solution exists, both expression are linearly DEPENDENT.

. A Gardener has 6203 plants. He wants to plant this in such a way that the number of rows and the number of columns remain the
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he wants to have equal number of rows and columns..the number of plants must be a root number. 6203 is not a root number. 6241 is the closest root number

(√6241= 79)

So he needs a minimum of 6241 plants in total for it.

6241-6203= 38

Therefore he needs 38 more plants

90 POINTS| PLEASE ANSWER ASAP|
shtirl [24]

For A:

You add the probabilities to get the answer to A: = .75, or 3/4

Note that the probability of ALL THREE of them hitting would be 1/3 x 1/4 x 1/5.

For B:

2/3 and 3/4 is the probability of the other two people MISSING (the remainder of 1/3, 1/4)

1.0 = 100% chance to hit the target, so 1.0 x 2/3 x 3/4 = 1/2

Mark's chance of hitting is 1/5, so do 1/2 x 1/5, = 1/10
