Answer:

y = 7 is the equation of the line that passes through the point ( -2, 7 ) and has a slope of zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let,

A ≡ ( x1 , y1 ) ≡ ( -2, 7 )

Slope = m = 0

To Find :

Equation of Line:

Solution:

Formula for , equation of a line passing through a point ( x1 , y1 ) and having a slope m is given by

$(y - y_{1})=m(x-x_{1})$

Now substituting the values of x1 = -2 and y1 = 7 and slope m = 0 we get,

$y-7=0\times(x--2) \\y-7=0\times (x+2)\\y-7=0\\\therefore y=7$

Which is the required equation of a line passing through the point ( -2, 7 ) and slope zero

Answer:

350.82

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area, you must add up all of the areas of each shape of the prism in order to get the sum surface area.

The rectangle's area ( $lw$ ):

$7.21*14=100.94$

The triangle's area ( $\frac{1}{2}bh$ ):

$\frac{1}{2} (6)(8)$

$\frac{1}{2} (48)=24$

Now add up all the sides. (3 Rectangles, 2 Triangles.)

$100.94 + 100.94 + 100.94 + 24 + 24$

$=350.82$

The total surface area is 350.82 cm squared.

How do I solve this equation

Anestetic [448]

-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1

Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts. First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable. I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.

-x - y = 8 add y to each side
-x = 8 + y divide by -1
x = -8 - y

So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation. In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.

2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1 multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1 combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1 add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15 divide each side by -3
y = -5

Now we have a value for y. We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x. I usually choose the most simple equation.

-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8 multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8 subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3 divide each side by -1
x = -3

So our solution set is

(-3, -5)

That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.
