Answer:

Unfortunately I can't read your answer options properly. The copied text is just too messed up. But hopefully the step-by-step calculation will help you.

Lemme know if it worked for you and if you have further questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2y = -6

can be rewritten as

2y = 3x + 6

or simpler

y = 1.5x + 3

we know that it's parallel to this line, but we don't know how much lower or higher the new line will be, so let's set "+3" as an unknown variable.

y = 1.5x + b

(the letter b is now what we try to solve for)

now let's plug in the x-/y-Informations of the given point

2 = 1.5 * 4 + b

2 = 6 + b

-4 = b

so the new line is

y = 1.5x -4

(the given point lies on that line and it's parallel to the other line)

let's multiply everything by two to get closer to the original format

2y = 3x -8

it could also be expressed as

2y = -(-3x+8)

(in hope that this may help for choosing an answer option)

please clean up the text of questions before posting next time

(would really appreciate the brainliest)

A rectangle has an area of 175 m2 . Calculate its length if its width is 25m
iragen [17]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle  (L) = 7m

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given that the width of the rectangle = 25 m

Given that the area of the rectangle = 175 m²

Area of the rectangle = length × width

                175 =  L × 25

       length(L)  = \frac{175}{25}

                  L = 7 m

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The length of the rectangle  (L) = 7m

How much is a 20% tip
GenaCL600 [577]
That would depend on the price u r originally paying because ur tip is a percentage of the original price.

Lets say u went out to eat and ur meal costs u $ 40. U plan on leaving a 20% tip. So ur tip would be 20% of 40....0.20 * 40 = 8...so a 20% tip on ur meal would be $ 8.

but if ur meal cost $ 25....and u left a 20% tip....20% of 25 = 0.20 * 25 = 5...so if ur meal was $ 25 and u left a 20% tip, u would be tipping $ 5

A screen door spring has a spring constant of 188 N/m, and stretches 0.292 m when the door is opened. What force does it exert?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

The answer is 54.896N

Step-by-step explanation:

From Hooke's law,

Force = spring constant x extension

i.e

F = k x e

F = 188N/m x 0.292m

F = 54.896N
