Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point. y = �5x 3; (�6, 3

I am assuming y= –5x+3 and the point is (–6, 3). If not, just leave out the negative signs.

The general formula for a line is y=mx+c. Where m=slope, c= some constant.

Parallelism mean equal slopes. So the slope of the line will be the coefficient of the x term in <span>y= –5x+3.

So we have, y=-5x+c

To find c, substitute values from the given point, (x=-6, y=3) and solve.

c= 3 + 5(-6)
c=-27

Therefore </span><span>y= –5x–27</span>

Given:

A prism has a base area of $20\pi$ square units and a volume of $120\pi$ cubic units.

To find:

The volume of the cylinder if the cylinder has the same base area and height.

Solution:

Volume of a prism is:

$V=Bh$

Where, B is the base area and h is the height of the prism.

The volume of cylinder is:

$V=\pi r^2h$

$V=Bh$

Where, r is the radius, h is the height of the cylinder and $B=\pi r^2$ is the base area.

Since base area and height of the cylinder are same as the prism, therefore, there volumes are equal.

Hence the volume of the cylinder is $120\pi$ cubic units.

Solve the inequality 17u≥−8, and write the solution in interval notation.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

u= -8/17 [-8, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

solve it like regular equation

17u≥-8

divide 17 on both side

then you get u≥-8/17

so, (u) is any value greater than or equal to -8/17

less than equal means solid dot on number line i think its called also mean ([) meaning it includes this value too. It is a multiplication so it can be any number above -8 or -8 itself. Thus, the interval notation will be [-8, ∞). Infinite is not a fix number so we use this (). hope this helps good luck
