Answer:

  • y = 5x + 11 or -5x + y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given line:</u>

  • -5x + y = 2

<u>In slope-intercept form:</u>

  • y = 5x + 2

<u>The parallel line has the same slope and will look as:</u>

  • y = 5x + b

<u>This line passes through the point (-2, 1), substitute:</u>

  • 1 = 5*(-2) + b
  • b = 1 + 10
  • b = 11

<u>So the line is:</u>

  • y = 5x + 11

or

  • -5x + y = 11

Suppose a population of deer in the state is 10, 289 and is growing 1% each year. Predict the population after 5 years
eimsori [14]

Answer: the population after 5 years is 10814

Step-by-step explanation:

The population growth of the deer is exponential. We would apply the formula for determining exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r)^t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

n represents the period of growth

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 10289

r = 1% = 1/100 = 0.01,

t = 5 years

Therefore,

A = 10289(1 + 0.01)^5

A = 10289(1.01)^5

A = 10814

A 5.ft tall man casts a shadow along the ground that is 8 ft. long. At the same time a giraffe casts a shadow that is 12 ft. lon
forsale [732]

Answer :  7.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

when the length of the shadow is 8ft, the actual height of the man = 5ft

8:5

let the giraffe be 'x' ft tall.

if the length of the shadow is 12ft, actual height = x ft

12:x

8:5 x 12:x

\frac{8}{5} × \frac{12}{x}

x= \frac{15}{2}

x=7.5 ft

Therefore, the giraffe is 7.5ft tall.

a tune up automotive facility marks up its parts by 45%. suppose that the facility charges its customers 2.32 for each spark plu
V125BC [204]

Answer:

$1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of $2.32 already includes the 45% mark up hence taking the original cost to be x, it means the cost of $2.32 is 145% of the original cost

Using the concept of cross multiplication we say that if

1.45 is equivalent to $2.32

1 is equivalent to x

x=\frac {2.32}{1.45}=1.6

Therefore, the company incurs $1.6 for each plug

Mila reads at a rate of 3 paragraphs per minute.
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

y= 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

This is honestly your basic times tables if we are being honest. We know that she read 3 paragraphs per minute. We also know that in 4 minutes, she read 12 paragraphs. 4 times 3 = 12. So the answer is y=3x.

A box has a volume given by the trinomial x^3 5x^2 -24x What are the possible dimensions of the box?
vladimir2022 [97]
Volume is legnth times width times height so 3 dimentions
thee teacher probabl y wants you to factor the trinomial into 3 factors so
x^3+5x^2-24x
first factor out x
x(x^2+5x-24)
then factor
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -24 and add to get 5
the numbers are -3 and 8
x^2+5x-24 factors to
(x-3)(x+8)
the factored form is
(x)(x-3)(x+8)=volume
no dimention can be ≤0 so therefor
x≤0

x-3≤0
add 3
x≤3

x+8≤0
subtract 8
x≤-8

so the values for x is x<3


so if you had the volume, let's say 42 then
x^3+5x^2-24x=42
subtract 42 from both sides
x^3+5x^2-24x-42=0
factor and set each to zero to find the dimentions
