Step 1

<u>Find the slope of the line PQ</u>

we know that

the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have

P(-3,-3)\\Q(3,-1)

substitute the values

m=\frac{-1+3}{3+3}

m=\frac{2}{6}

m=\frac{1}{3}

Step 2

Find the equation of the line that passes through point R ans is parallel to line PQ

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

The equation of the line into point-slope form is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=\frac{1}{3}

(x1,y1)=R(1,1)

substitute the values

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

Step 3

we know that

The point on the y-axis that is on the line y-1=\frac{1}{3}(x-1) is equal to the y-intercept of the line

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

so

For x=0 find the value of y in the linear equation

y-1=\frac{1}{3}(0-1)

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

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

y=\frac{2}{3}

The point that is on the y-axis is (0,\frac{2}{3})

therefore

<u>the answer is the option A</u>

(0,\frac{2}{3})

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Answer: A.(0,2/3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A (0,y) be the point on y axis is on the line that passes through point R (1,1) and is parallel to line PQ.

We know that if two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.

The slope of line passing through  (a,b) and (c,d) is given by

m=\frac{d-b}{c-a}

Since AR is parallel to PQ.

Then slope of PQ= slope of AR

\frac{-1-(-3)}{3-(-3)}=\frac{1-y}{1-0}\\\Rightarrow\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1-y}{1}\\\\\Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}=1-y\\\Rightarrow\ y=1-\frac{1}{3}\\\Rightarrow\ y=\frac{2}{3}

hence, the point on the y-axis is on the line that passes through point R and is parallel to line PQ = (2/3,0)

Two canoes travel down a river, starting at 10:00. One canoe travels twice as fast as the other. After 3.5 hr, the canoes are 5.
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The time for each canoe is 3.5 hours

The total distance traveled by the first canoe is not known. Nor is the distance for the second canoe. We do know that the difference is 5.25 miles.

So let the rate of the slower canoe = x

Let the rate for the second canoe = 2x

The first canoe goes a distance of 2*x * 3.5 = 7x

The second canoe goes a distance of 3.5x

The difference = 7x - 3.5x = 5.25

3.5x = 5.25                                       divide by 3.5

x = 5.25/3.5

x = 1.5 which is the rate of the slower canoe

2x = 3  which is the rate of the faster canoe

<h2><u>Quadrilateral</u></h2>

<h3>Classify the quadrilateral in as many ways as possible.</h3>

Shown in the figure, all the measurements of each sides is different, so it is only a quadrilateral. Square has four equal sides and angles, rhombus has only four equal sides, and a parallelogram whose opposite sides are parallel.

<u>Answer:</u>

  • <u>C. Quadrilateral</u>

<em>Picture 1 (Rhombus)</em>

<em>Picture </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>(Square)</em>

<em>Picture 3 (Parallelogram)</em>

<em>Picture 4 (Quadrilateral)</em>

Do you have 1 7/8 divided by one half. With dividing you multiply by the reciprocal of 1/2 which is 2/1. Before you do that change 1 7/8 into a mixed number which is 15/8. 15 x 2= 30, 8 x 1=8. New fraction is 30/8. Now as a mixed number it is 3 6/8 which simplifies to 3 3/4. So your answer is D
