Write the equation of a line parallel to y=3

2 answers:

6 0

The line y=3 is a horizontal line, and a horizontal line has a slope of zero. The only lines parallel to a horizontal line are other horizontal lines. Therefore, there is no slope. The slope is the coefficient of x in the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b. m stands for the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

$y = 4$
You could use Y equals any number, becuase it is a horizontal line therefore the slope equals 1 and any Y intercept would work.

A triangular prism container is full of water of 428 cubic cm. The water is 10 cm deep, what is the base area of the container?

Hatshy [7]

<h3>The base area of triangular prism container is 42.8 cubic centimeter</h3>

Solution:

The volume of triangular prism is given as:

$v = base\ area \times height$

Given that,

A triangular prism container is full of water of 428 cubic cm

The water is 10 cm deep

Therefore,

v = 428 cubic cm

h = 10 cm

Substituting the values we get,

$428 = base\ area \times 10\\\\base\ area = \frac{428}{10}\\\\base\ area = 42.8\ cm^2$

Thus the base area of triangular prism container is 42.8 cubic centimeter

The length of a rectangle is twice its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 cm , find its area.

Brut [27]

L = Length
W = Width

L x W = area
Length = 2w

Lets find the width by solving for w.
2w + w = 36
3w = 36
3w/3 = 36 / 3
w = 12

So
L = 2 x 12 = 24
W = 12
L X W = area
24 x 12 = 288 cm^2

Line p passes through A(-2, -4) and has a slope of - 1/2

Alenkasestr [34]

M = -1/2
(x₁, y₁) = (-2,-4)

Find the equation
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - (-4) = -1/2 (x - (-2))
y + 4 = -1/2 (x + 2)
2(y + 4) = -1 (x + 2)
2y + 8 = -x - 2
x + 2y = -10
