Write an equation for a line parallel to y=−4x+5 and passing through the point (4,-21)

Answer:

y = - 4x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 4x + 5 is in this form with slope m = - 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (4, - 21) into the partial equation

- 21 = - 16 + c ⇒ c = - 21 + 16 = - 5

y = - 4x - 5 ← equation of parallel line

If an interest rate of 5% results in interest of $50,<br> what is the principal amount of the loan?
Luba_88 [7]

Solve for x

We do the inverse of times which is divide

$50 divide by 0.05 = $1000

Lana is the oldest of four sisters. Her youngest sister is half her age. The other two sisters are twins $2$ years younger than
vagabundo [1.1K]
Let the youngest sister be n years
Lana will be 2n years, as her youngest sister is half her age
The age of the twins separately will be 2n-2 as they are 2 years younger than Lana
So, the equation looks like this:
n + 2n + 2(2n-2) = 45
Now solve for n:
3n + 4n - 4 = 45
7n - 4 = 45
7n = 49
n = 7
So the youngest sister is 7, Lana is 14 and the twins are 12. 14 + 12 + 12 + 7 =45

Match the function to the correct parabola
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The box to the left will have the equation p(x) = 5x² and the box to the right will have the equation n(x) = \frac{1}{5} x^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of the x² decides how wide or narrow a quadratic graph is. If the coefficient is a fraction of 1, the smaller the fraction the wider the graph gets. If the coefficient is a number bigger than 1, the bigger the number, the narrower the graph gets.

An insurance company pays Tommy a $400 commission for selling a $100,000 insurance policy. At this rate, what would be Tommy’s c
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

$100

Step-by-step explanation:

He gets paid a commission of $400 for a $100,000 insurance policy. We need to find out how much he's gonna get paid for a $25,000 insurance policy.


Break down the $100,000 into four equal amounts if possible, which it is:

$25,000

$25,000

$25,000

$25,000

Now break down his commission of $400 for the $100,000 insurance policy into four equal amounts if possible, which it is:

$100

$100

$100

$100

Now since we split them up into four equal parts you can tell how much he would get paid for a $25,000 insurance policy.

He would get paid $100 for the $25,000
