What is the equation of a line that passes through (-2,1) and is parallel to y=3x-4

Mathematics

If a line is parallel to another, the slopes of both lines are the same. So for this problem, you can infer that the slope of the line you're trying to find is 3.

To find the actual equation of the line, you can use the given coordinates and plug them into the point slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

plug the given y coordinate into y1 and the given x coordinate into x1. m is the slope, so plug in 3 for m.

y - 1 = 3(x +2) Use distributive property for right side of equation

y - 1 = 3x + 6 add 1 to both sides to cancel -1 on left side of equation and isolate y

Equation of line: y = 3x + 7

Peter has twice as many stickers as Joe. Joe has 40 more stickers than Emily. They have 300 Stickers altogether. How many sticke
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations derived from given info.

  • P=2J
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Use some substitution now.

  • P=2(E+40)
  • J=E+40
  • P+J+E=300

Substitute first and second equation into third.

  • 2(E+40)+E+40+E=300
  • 2E+80+E+40+E=300
  • 4E+120=300
  • 4E=180
  • E=45

Emily has 45 stickers. But we want to know what Peter has.

Use P=2(E+40)

  • P=2(45+40)
  • P=90+80
  • P=170

Peter has 170 stickers.

For her exercise today, Keiko plans to both run and swim. Let r be the number of laps she runs and let s be the number of laps s
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

5r + 3s ≥ 30

Step-by-step explanation:

We know Keiko wants to do exercise at least 30 minutes a day, and she wants ideally to mix up the activities, by combining running and swimming into her schedule.

Since each lap she runs takes 5 minutes and each lap she swims takes 3 minutes, these will be the left side of the inequality:

5r + 3s

She wants to exercise at least 30 minutes a day, so...

5r + 3s ≥ 30

she could do 3 laps of running and 5 laps of swimming for example.

Joshua uses the escalator in the shopping mall to get to the ground floor from the underground garage located at (12,-5). Which
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

(4,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial location of Joshua in the shopping mall is expressed according to the coordinate (12, -5)

If he undergoes a translation of 8 steps to the left and 10 steps upwards, this means that he moves 8 steps towards the negative x axis and 10 steps towards the positive y axis. The new coordinate will be gotten by adding the translation (-8, 10) to the initial coordinate as shown

New position = (12, -5) + (-8,10)

New position = (12-8, -5+10)

New position = (4, 5)

Hence the coordinates that corresponds to the location of the ground floor when undergoing a translation of 8 steps to the left and 10 steps upwards will be (4,5)

Is 12/30 and 18/45 proportional, or not proportional?
34kurt

12/30 = 18/45, so first you're going to cross multiply and you'll get (30)(18) = (12)(45). Then you can see that 540 = 540 same number so they're proportional...

BTW THIS WAY IS A LOT EASIER.

12/30 = 2/5

18/45 = 2/5

So yes, in summary, they're proportional to each other. Hope this helps, have a BLESSED and wonderful day! :-)
