Equation of y-intercept -1 parallel y=-1/2x-4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
3 0

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

According to the statement we have the following equation:

y = - \frac {1} {2} x-4

The slope is:

m = - \frac {1} {2}

By definition, if two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal. Thus, a parallel line will have slopem = - \frac {1} {2}. Therefore, the equation will be of the form:

y = - \frac {1} {2} x + b

In the statement they tell us thatb = -1, substituting we have:

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

Answer:

The equation is:

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

Answer:

The answer is

\frac{2s}{n}  - l = a

Step-by-step explanation:

s =  \frac{n}{2} (a + l)

multiply both sides by 2 to get

2s = n(a + l)

divide both sides by n to get

\frac{2s}{n}  = a + l

subtract L from both sides to get the answer

\frac{2s}{n}  - l = a

Which figure has both line of symmetry and rotational symmetry
irakobra [83]
A line of symmetry is when you can put a line through a shape and you can fold it and it is identical on both sides, and rotational is when you can rotate it and at some point it is in the same spot as it was before, so yes, you are right. the octogon.

The average body temperature of a lemming is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The
zaharov [31]

Answer:

<em> </em>|x - 98.6| > 1.5<em></em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Temperature = 98.6F

Range = 1.5F

Required

Write the absolute value inequality

Let the temperature be represented by x

We start by writing an expression for the difference between x and 98.6.

This can be written as x - 98.6

From the question, we understand that this difference is more than 1.5F

Representing this using absolute value inequality; we have

|x - 98.6| > 1.5

Solving further; this gives

x - 98.6 > 1.5 or x - 98.6 < -1.5

Make x the subject of formula in both cases

x >98.6 +1.5 or x  < 98.6-1.5

x >100.1 or x  < 97.1

This can be rewritten as

x >100.1 or 97.1>x

Combining these two inequalities;

97.1 > x > 100.1

Hence;

<em>The absolute inequality is  </em>|x - 98.6| > 1.5<em></em>

<em>And the range of value is </em>97.1 > x > 100.1<em />
