Write the equation of the line that goes through the point (−9, −4) and is parallel to the line −x + 3y = −0.5
inysia [295]

Answer:

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

Explanation:

Given

Parallel to: -x + 3y = -0.5

Passes through (-9,-4)

Required

Determine the line equation

First, we calculate the slope (m) of the said line

-x + 3y = -0.5

Make y the subject

3y = x - 0.5

Divide through by 3

y = \frac{1}{3}x - \frac{0.5}{3}

An equation has the general form:

y = mx + b

Where

m = slope

So:

m = \frac{1}{3}

Because the required line is parallel to -x + 3y = -0.5, then they have the same slope of m = \frac{1}{3}

Next, is to calculate the line equation using:

y = m(x - x_1) + y_1

Where

m = \frac{1}{3}

(x_1,y_1) = (-9,-4)

This gives:

y = \frac{1}{3}(x -(-9)) + (-4)

y = \frac{1}{3}(x +9) -4

Open bracket

y = \frac{1}{3}x +3 -4

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

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

The correct answer is: a) it relies on testimony from people.

Explanation:

The Mercalli intensity scale, unlike the Richter scale, does not directly measure the energy of an earthquake. Rather, it takes into account the damage and effects that the earthquake caused. When there is little damage, it relies on the testimony of people who felt the earthquake, which may vary and is ultimately subjective to people's perception.

The Mercalli Intensity Scale ranges from "Not felt" to "Catastrophic" going through 12 scale intensities.
