What value of a in the equation ax − 4 = 2y would give a line with a slope of 2?

Mathematics

sukhopar [10]3 years ago

Answer:

a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

ax − 4 = 2y

We need to get the equation is slope intercept form  y= mx+b.

Lets solve for y

Divide each side by 2

a/2 x - 4/2 = 2y/2

a/2 x -2 = y

or y=a/2 x -2

The slope is a/2 and the y intercept is -2

We want a slope of 2  so a/2 =2

a/2=2

Multiply each side by 2

a/2 * 2 =2*2

a =4

How do you do this problem?
erastovalidia [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

∫₀² x f(x²) dx

If u = x², then du = 2x dx, and ½ du = x dx.

When x = 0, u = 0.  When x = 2, u = 4.

∫₀⁴ ½ f(u) du

Part of a shape is drawn.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The points of the rotated shape are: (4, 1), (5, 3), (4, 4), (2, 1), (1, 3), (2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the part of the shape we can see and the symmetry, the missing points are:

(-2, -1)

(-1, -3)

(-2, -4)

Rotation 180° about the origin transforms the point (x, y) into (-x, -y). Applying this rule to our figure, we get:

(-4, -1) -> (4, 1)

(-5, -3) -> (5, 3)

(-4, -4) -> (4, 4)

(-2, -1) -> (2, 1)

(-1, -3) -> (1, 3)

(-2, -4) -> (2, 4)

Mr. Smith and Mr. Kelly are business partners they agreed to divide the profits in the ratio of 3 to 2 the profit amount of 24,0
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: Mr. Smith makes 14,400, Mr. Kelly makes 9,600

Step-by-step explanation: First add the ratio together. 3+2=5.

Then divide 24,000 into five parts, 24,000/5 = 4,800.

After getting 4,800, multiply 4,800 by 3 to get Mr. Smith's portion of the money received. 4,800 x 3 = 14,000.

And you can do the same for Mr. Kelly but use 2 instead of a 3.

4,800 x 2 = 9,600

To check your work you can add the two answers together

9,600 + 14,400 = 24,000.
