Find the slope and y-intercept of the line that is parallel to y = -2 +3 and passes through the point

1 answer:

3 0

Slope = -2 Y - intercept = 18

To find a parallel line, use the same equation as before, but..
- Change x and y to the coordinates
- Make b a variable
- The slope stays the same! Since they are parallel they have the same slope.

The equation should look like:
6 = (-2)(-6) + b

Then solve for b
6 = (-2)(-6) + b
6 = -12 + b
18 = b

So, the slope is the same (-2) and the y-intercept is 18.

y = -2x + 18

Answer: A. 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

$cos\ \theta=\dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\\\cos\ 28^o=\dfrac{11}{x}\\\\\\\rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{11}{cos\ 28^o}\\\\\\\rightarrow\ x=12.46\\\\\\\rightarrow\ \boxed{x=12.5}\qquad rounded\ to\ the\ nearest\ tenth$

An isosceles triangle has two angles that are each 57. Find the measure of the third angle

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The third angle measures 66°

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at the properties of triangles, we will know that all triangles have angles that, when added together, equal 180 degrees. Because we already know the measurement of two of the angles, all we have to do is add them up and subtract the sum by 180.

57+57=114

180-114=66

We got 66 as the measure of the last angle. Now, to make sure we have the right answer, we are going to check our work. We do this by adding together all of the angle measurements. If they all add up to 180, then we know we have the correct answer.

57+57+66=180

We were correct! Now we have the measurements of all three of the triangle's angles. Great job!

I hope this is easy to understand. Please let me know if you need any more help. Have a great morning!

What is-3/7x-2 in standard form

Eddi Din [679]

If you are given y = (-3/7)x - 2 and you want it in the form Ax+By = C, then...

y = (-3/7)x-2
7*y = 7*( (-3/7)x-2) ... multiply both sides by 7
7y = -3x-14 ... distribute and multiply
7y+3x = -3x-14+3x ... add 3x to both sides
3x+7y = -14

The standard form equation is 3x+7y = -14
