What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (-2, 4)?

Aneli [31]3 years ago

Answer: 5x + 2y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Change 5x+2y=12 to slope intercept: 2y = 12 - 5x, y = -5x/2 + 6

A parallel line has the same slope, so the line we try to find is y = -5x/2 + b.

Substitute (-2, 4) in and get 4=5+b, so b = -1.

Therefore the answer is y = -5x/2 - 1, or if you want it in the original form it would be 2y = -5x - 2 ---> 5x+2y = -2.

Hope that helped,

The figure shows a gas tank in the form of a rectangular prism that is 40% full. How many more gallons of gas will it take to fi
liubo4ka [24]
The problem statement suggests you should convert dimensions to inches to work this problem.
.. 2.75 ft = 33 in
.. 1.5 ft = 18 in
The empty height is
.. 0.6*7 in = 4.2 in
so the empty volume is
.. V = (33 in)*(18 in)*(4.2 in) = 2494.8 in³

Multiplying this by the conversion factor to gallons gives
.. V = (2494.8 in)³ × (1 gal)/(231 in³) = 10.8 gal

It will take 10.8 gallons of gas to fill the tank.

The graph of a quadratic function intercepts the x-axis in the two places and the y-axis in one place.
wolverine [178]
Correct Answer:
Option 3: <span>The quadratic function has two distinct real zeros.

The function is quadratic, therefore it can have only 2 zeros. The knowledge of x-intercepts is needed to determine the zeros, y-intercepts has nothing to do with the zeros of a function. The given function has 2 unique x-intercepts, so according to the fundamental theorem of algebra, this function has 2 distinct real roots as number of distinct real roots are equal to the number of x-intercepts. Therefore, option 3 is the correct answer. </span>
