<h3>1.</h3>
The equation in point-slope form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
slope: m = -2
point: (4, -5) ⇒ x₁ = 4, y₁ = -5
Therefore, the equation of the line in point-slope form:
<h3>
y + 5 = -2(x - 4)</h3>
<h3>2.</h3>
The equation in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
Parallel lines has the same slope, so:
y = 4x + 2 ⇒ a = 4
If a line passes through the point <em>(x₁, y₁) </em>then the equation y<em>₁</em> = mx<em>₁</em> + b is true.
(4, 6) ⇒ x₁ = 4, y₁ = 6
So: 6 = 4·4 + b ⇒ b = -10
Therefore the equation:
<h3>
y = 4x - 10</h3>
<h3>3.</h3>
a = 3
(-1, 1) ⇒ x₁ = -1, y₁ = 1
So: 1 = 3·(-1) + b ⇒ b = 4
The equation:
<h3>
y = 3x + 4</h3>
<h3>4. </h3>
The product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1.
2x - 7y = 1 ⇒ 7y = -2x + 1 ⇒ y = -²/₇x + ¹/₇
-²/₇×m = -1 ⇒ m = ⁷/₂
(0, -4) ⇒ x₁ = 0, y₁ = -4
-4 = ⁷/₂·0 + b ⇒ b = -4
The equation:
<h3>
y = ⁷/₂x - 4</h3>

If the circumference of the first circle is 24 cm, what is the diameter of this circle? The formula for circumference applicable here is C = pi*d.
Let C = pi*d = 24 cm and solve this for the diameter, d:
24 cm
d = --------------- = 7.639 cm (answer to the nearest millimeter)
3.14159
To determine this, the first thing we should do is simplify the expression. As usual, bring like terms to either side of the "=" and then simplify.
2x + 6 - x = 1/3 (3x + 18)
x + 6 = 1/3 (3x + 18)
x + 6 = 1/3 (3x) + 1/3(18)
x + 6 = x + 6
We can already see that both sides have the same expression "x+6". Now, if you try to simplify any further, you will get 0=0. That means that for any value of x, the expression will simplify to 0=0. Because 0=0 is a true statement, for every value of x, the expression will be true. Therefore, there are an infinite number of solutions.
Hope this helped!! :D
