4 0

The equation of the line that passes through (−1,3) and is parallel to the line y = 2x + 2 in slope intercept form is y = 2x + 5

<h3><u>Solution</u>:</h3>

Given that line passes through (-1, 3) and parallel to line y = 2x + 2

We have to find the equation of the line

Let us first find the slope of the line

<em><u>The slope intercept form of line is given as:</u></em>

y = mx + c ---- eqn 1

where "m" is the slope of the line and "c" is the y-intercept

Comparing the given line equation y = 2x + 2 with y = mx + c,

We get slope "m" = 2

The slope of parallel lines are equal

Hence slope of the line which is parallel to y = 2x + 2 is also 2

Now let us find the equation of line with slope "m" = 2 and passes through point (-1, 3)

Substitute (x, y) = (-1, 3) in eqn 1 to find value of "c"

3 = 2(-1) + c

3 = -2 + c

c = 5

Now substitute "c" = 5 and m = 2 in eqn 1 to get equation of required line

y = 2x + 5

Thus the equation of line in slope intercept form is y = 2x + 5

What is the interest rate of each investment if The annual interest on a $17,000 investment exceeds the interest earned on an $8

Butoxors [25]

<u>Solution-</u>

Let's assume, the rate of interest of $8000 is x%,

then the rate of interest of $17000 is (x+0.3x) =1.3x%

Interest earned by $8000,

$i_1=\frac{8000\times x\times 1}{100} =80x$

Interest earned by $17,000,

$i_2=\frac{17000\times 1.3x\times 1}{100} =221x$

According to the question,

$\Rightarrow i_1=i_2+276$

$\Rightarrow 221x=80x+276$

$\Rightarrow 221x-80x=276$

$\Rightarrow 141x=276$

$\Rightarrow x=1.96$

∴ Rate of interest of $8000 is 1.96% and rate of interest of $17000 is (1.3×1.96) =2.55%

A student solved 6x+4=2(x−8) in four steps as shown:

mr_godi [17]

The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.

1) Distribute the 2.
6x + 4 = 2x – 16

2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16

3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12

4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3

To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.

3 sin(x) + 3 = sin(x)

kumpel [21]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

3 sin x+3=sin x

3 sin x-sin x=-3

2 sin x=-3

sin x=-3/2

which is impossible as |sin x|≤ 1

........................

shtirl [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure (1)

x° = 107° [Vertically opposite angles]

Since, vertical angles are equal in measure.

Figure (2)

x + 71° = 90° [Given, complementary angles]

x = 90° - 71°

x = 19°

Figure (3)

x + 21° = 180° [Given as supplementary angles]

x = 180° - 21°

x = 159°

Figure (4)

x = 129° [Vertical angles]

Figure (5)

x° = 90° [Given]

z° + 34° = 90°

z° = 90° - 34°

z° = 56°

Since, x° + y° + z° = 180° [Linear angles]

90° + y° + 56° = 180°

y° + 146° = 180°

y° = 180° - 146°

y° = 34°
