Are the graphs of 2x+7y=6 and 7y = 2x +6 parallel? Explain.

1 answer:

7 0

With questions like this (to see if theyre parallel), all you have to do is see if lines have a congruent slope. if yes (ex: 2 and 2), then they are parallel. if the slopes are opposites (ex: 4 and -1/4), then they are perpendicular. If they have no such relation (ex: -3 and 1/7), then they are neither.

with this problem, find the slope by separating the same variable in each equations, like this:

2x + 7y = 6
-2x -2x

7y = -2x + 6

(the second equation is already separated) so now we have

7y = -2x + 6 and 7y = 2x + 6

since -2 does NOT equal 2, these two graphs/lines are NOT parallel.
Hope this helped!

Solve for x : log(3x) + log(x + 4) = log(15).<br><br>Please explain it to me.

zlopas [31]

Answer:

x = 1

Explanation:

$\sf \rightarrow log(3x) + log(x + 4) = log(15)$

Rule: log(a) + log(b) = log(ab)

$\sf \rightarrow log(3x(x + 4)) = log(15)$

cancel out log on both sides

$\sf \rightarrow 3x(x + 4) = 15$

relocate constant variable

$\sf \rightarrow 3x^2 + 12x -15 = 0$

take 3 as a common factor

$\sf \rightarrow 3(x^2 + 4x -5) = 0$

divide both sides by 3

$\sf \rightarrow x^2 + 4x -5 = 0$

middle term split

$\sf \rightarrow x^2 + 5x -x-5 = 0$

factor common terms

$\sf \rightarrow x(x + 5) -1(x+5)= 0$

collect into groups

$\sf \rightarrow (x-1)(x+5)= 0$

set to zero

$\sf \rightarrow x-1 = 0 , \ x+5= 0$

relocate variables

$\sf \rightarrow x = 1, \ x = -5$

There must be a positive solution for log, so the solution is only x = 1

She burned 30 calories for each minute of jogging and 15 calories for each minute of cycling because 300 divided by 10 is 30 and 300 divided by 20 is 15
