Which equation represents a line that passes through (2,-1/2) and has a slope of 3 ?

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

C. $y + \frac{1}{2} = 3(x - 2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Point: (2,\frac{-1}{2})$

$Slope: 3$

Required

Equation of line

Let m represents the slope of the line;

m is calculated as thus

$m = \frac{y - y_1}{x - x_1}$

$where (x_1,y_1) = (2,\frac{-1}{2})$

$So; x_1 = 2; y_1 = \frac{-1}{2}$

$m = 3$

By substituting the right values in the formula above;

$m = \frac{y - y_1}{x - x_1}$ becomes

$3 = \frac{y - \frac{-1}{2}}{x - 2}$

Multiply both sides by $(x - 2)$

$3 *(x - 2) = \frac{y - \frac{-1}{2}}{x - 2} *(x - 2)$

$3 *(x - 2) = (y - \frac{-1}{2})$

$3 *(x - 2) = (y + \frac{1}{2})$

$3(x - 2) = (y + \frac{1}{2})$

$3(x - 2) = y + \frac{1}{2}$

Reorder

$y + \frac{1}{2} = 3(x - 2)$

Hence, the equation that represents the line is $y + \frac{1}{2} = 3(x - 2)$

Simplify 7x + 2y - 3x + 4y Factorise 10x - 15 Solve 5p = 3p + 8

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

1. x = -1.5y

2. 5 (2x-3)

3. p = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplifying

7x + 2y + -3x + 4y = 0

Reorder the terms:

7x + -3x + 2y + 4y = 0

Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x

4x + 2y + 4y = 0

Combine like terms: 2y + 4y = 6y

4x + 6y = 0

Solving

4x + 6y = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6y' to each side of the equation.

4x + 6y + -6y = 0 + -6y

Combine like terms: 6y + -6y = 0

4x + 0 = 0 + -6y

4x = 0 + -6y

Remove the zero:

4x = -6y

Divide each side by '4'.

x = -1.5y

Simplifying

x = -1.5y

Common factor

10x - 15

5 (2x-3)

3) Simplifying

5p = 3p + 8

Reorder the terms:

5p = 8 + 3p

Solving

5p = 8 + 3p

Solving for variable 'p'.

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3p' to each side of the equation.

5p + -3p = 8 + 3p + -3p

Combine like terms: 5p + -3p = 2p

2p = 8 + 3p + -3p

Combine like terms: 3p + -3p = 0

2p = 8 + 0

2p = 8

Divide each side by '2'.

p = 4

Simplifying

p = 4

In remodeling a house an architect finds that by adding the same amount to each dimension of a 15ft by 19ft rectangular room, th

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

new length=15+x

width=19+x

then area=(15+x)×(19+x)=285+15x+19x+x²=x²+34x+285 ft²

original area=15×19=285 ft²

then 285+98=x²+34x+285

x²+34x-98=0

x²+34x+17²=98+17²

(x+17)²=98+289=387

x+17=√387=3√43

x=3√43-17 ft
