Write the equation of a line that is

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Y= 3x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is parallel , the slope is same i.e. 3 .

now the equation should be y= Mx + b where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

plugging the value of m=3 and ( 3,2) into the equation

2= 3(3) + c

2= 9+ c

c= -7

hence the equation of the line is y=3x-7

Solve for x. and please explain your answer

Natali [406]

Next to angle x is 102° and is you add 102 to angle x it has to equal 180 because that’s the value of half the circle so you do 180-102 which will give you 78

Write p(x) = 21 + 24x + 6x2 in vertex form.

Citrus2011 [14]

<u>ANSWER</u>

$p(x)=-3+6(x+2)^2$

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

The given function is

$p(x)=21+24x+6x^2$

We make the coefficient of $x^2$ unity by factoring $6$ out of the last two terms to obtain;

$p(x)=21+6(4x+x^2)$

We now add and subtract half the coefficient of $x$ multiplied by a factor of 6 to obtain;

$p(x)=21-6(2)^2+6(2)^2+6(4x+x^2)$

We now factor 6 out of the last two terms to get;

$p(x)=21-6\times 4+6((2)^2+4x+x^2)$

$p(x)=21-24+6((2)^2+4x+x^2)$

The quadratic trinomial in the parenthesis is now a perfect square.

$p(x)=-3+6(x+2)^2$

Hence the vertex form of the polynomial is

$p(x)=6(x+2)^2-3$

The olive trees in an orchard produce 3,000 pounds of olives a year. It takes 20 pounds of olives to make 3 liters of olive oil.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

450L

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a ratio and proportion problem. First you need to determine the known ratio and the unknown ratio. In this case we have the known ratio:

$\dfrac{20 lbs}{3L}$

The unknown ratio in this case is:

$\dfrac{3,000lbs}{xL}$

So to do this, we just set up the proportion and solve for it:

$\dfrac{20lbs}{3L}=\dfrac{3,000lbs}{xL}\\\\{20lbs}=\dfrac{3L\times3,000lbs}{xL}\\\\{xL}=\dfrac{3L\times3,000lbs}{20lbs}\\\\{xL}=\dfrac{9,000L}{20}\\\\xL = 450L$
