The equation of a line is y = 2x + 3. What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the first line and passes through (2,

–1)?

Answer:

y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope for a parallel line is the same as the slope in the given equation.  Therefore the slope of the new line will be 2    m= 2

use that slope and (2, -1) to find b

-1 = 2(2) + b

-1 = 4 + b

-5 = b

Plug m and b into y = mx + b

y = 2x - 5

A large grandfather clock strikes its bell once at 1:00, twice at 2:00, three times at 3:00, etcetera. what is the total number
erastovalidia [21]
There is a formula for adding consecutive integers.
sum = (n * (n+1)) / 2
for summing 1 through 12 it is
sum = (12 * 13) / 2 = 156/2 = 78
The clock goes through two "12-hour cycles" in a day, so the answer is 2 * 78 or 156 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming (a-1, 9) is in the form of (x,y):

9(a-1) - 5(9) = -9

9a - 9 - 45 = -9

9a = 45

a = 5

A cyclist travels at an average speed of 13 mph for 3 hours.<br> How far did she travel in miles?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

39 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a cyclist travelled at an average rate of 13 miles per hour for 3 hours and are asked to how far she travelled in miles.

To solve, we need to take into mind that for three hours, the cyclist drove 13 miles per hour.

Meaning that for every hour, 13 miles were driven.

Therefore we need to multiply 13 by 3 to get our answer :

13 miles * 3hrs

39 miles

What is lim x-&gt;-1 sin(pie/6))<br><br><br><br>this is a timed
dlinn [17]

sin(π/6) is independent of x, so

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-1} \sin\left(\frac\pi6\right) = \sin\left(\frac\pi6\right) = \boxed{\frac12}
