Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y=-5/4x + 7
Any line parallel to the given line will have the same slope. In an equation presented in the y-intercept form, the slope is always the coefficient of "x". In this case, the slope is -5/4 (meaning the next point is down 5, and 4 to the right).
Our equation so far looks like this: y = -5/4x + b
"b" represents the y-intercept. To solve for be, we will need to substitute values into x and y. The next piece of information it gives us is one of the points, or solutions, of the line. This means that since this point is on the line, we can use its x and y values to substitute.
x = -4
y= 1
y = -5/4x + b
1 = -5/4(-4) + b
1 = 5 + b
-4 = b
Final Answer: y = -(5/4)x -4
Answer:
8 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ratio of sides = a : b, then
ratio of area = a² : b²
ratio of volumes = a³ : b³
Given
ratio of areas = 384 : 96 = 4 : 1 ← in simplest form, then
ratio of sides =
:
= 2 : 1
Hence
ratio of volumes = 2³ : 1³ = 8 : 1
The misused form but it is really the mean the arithmetical form of mean
Answer:
x = m - z
Step-by-step explanation:
z = m - x add x to both sides
z + x = m - x + x
z + x = m subtract z from both sides
z - z + x = m - z
x = m - z
