Answer:

y=2x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this you first have to calculate the slope of the parallel line, since that would be equal to the slope of our line:

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

Now we insert the values into the formula:

Slope=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\\Slope=\frac{5-7}{1-2}\\Slope= \frac{-2}{-1}\\ Slope:2

And remember that the formula for general line is:

Y-y1= M(x-x1)\\y-9=2(x-8=\\y=2x-16+9\\y=2x-7

So the equation for the line passing through point 8,9 and parallel to the line joining 2,7 and 1,5 would be y=2x-7

Answer:

2x - y - 7 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the slope of parallel line are same.

So, we can easily use formula,

y - y₁ = m ( x ₋ x₁)

where, (x₁, y₁) = (8, 9)

and m is a slope of line passing through (x₁, y₁).

and since the slope of parallel lines are same, so here we use slope of parallel line for calculation.

and, Slope = m = \dfrac{y_{b}-y_{a}}{x_{b}-x_{a}}

here, (xₐ, yₐ) = (2, 7)

and, (y_{a},y_{b}) = (1, 5 )

⇒ m = \dfrac{5-7}{1-2}

⇒ m = 2

Putting all values above formula. We get,

y - 9 = 2 ( x ₋ 8)

⇒ y - 9 = 2x - 16

⇒ 2x - y - 7 = 0

which is required equation.

Answer:

Final answer is approx x=-0.66.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is 5^{-2x-1}=4^{4x+3}.

Now we need to solve equation 5^{-2x-1}=4^{4x+3} and round to the nearest hundredth.

5^{-2x-1}=4^{4x+3}

\log(5^{-2x-1})=\log(4^{4x+3})

(-2x-1)\log(5)=(4x+3)\log(4)

-2x \log(5)- \log(5)=4x \log(4)+3 \log(4)

-2x \log(5) -4x \log(4)=3 \log(4) +\log(5)

x=\frac{\left(3\log(4)+\log(5)\right)}{\left(-2\log(5)-4\log(4)\right)}

Now use calculator to calculate log values, we get:

x=-0.65817959094

Round to the nearest hundredth.

Hence final answer is approx x=-0.66.

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

208 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the area of the net by adding up the area of each of the 6 rectangles that make up the net. Since two of each rectangle are the same, we only have to find the area of the 3 different sized rectangles and multiply each by 2.

Rectangle pairs are:

  • Left rectangle and right rectangle
  • Top rectangle and the rectangle above the bottom rectangle
  • Bottom rectangle and the rectangle surrounded by all for sides

Now, let's solve the question.

Left rectangle:

6 x 4 = 24, rectangle has area of 24 squared cm

Top rectangle:

6 x 8 = 48, rectangle has area of 48 squared cm

Bottom rectangle:

4 x 8 = 32, rectangle has area of 32 squared cm

Add up the areas:

(24 x 2) + (48 x 2) + (32 x 2) = 208

The rectangle has a surface area of 208 squared cm
