Answer:

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

since its a horizantal line

if u take any 2 points and find the slope, for example if we take points (1, 1) and (4, 1) the slope will be 0/3 which is zero

y = 0x + b

so there is basically no x in this case

so y = b

now plug in a point from the line, (1, 1)

y = mx + b

y = 0x + b

1 = 0(1) + b

1 = 0 + b

1 = b

b = 1

final equation:

y = 0x + 1

Answer:

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is horizontal and goes through the y axis.

Hence the equation is y = 1 because the line stays on this point forever.

Sofian's current age is (2x + 3) times Mastura's age. Given that Mastura's current age is (x + 5) years and 6 years ago, the sum

Sliva [168]

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Given :}}}}}}$

★ Sofian's current age is (2x + 3) times Mastura's age.

★ Mastura's current age is (x + 5) years

★ 6 years ago, the sum of their ages is 44 years.

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{To \: Find :}}}}}}$

★ The value of x.

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Solution :}}}}}}$

According to the question,

Present age of Mastura = (x + 5) years

Present age of Sofian = (2x + 3) (x + 5) years, i.e :

$\longrightarrow \tt (2x + 3) (x + 5)$

$\longrightarrow \tt 2 {x}^{2} + 10x + 3x + 15$

$\longrightarrow \tt 2 {x}^{2} + 13x + 15 \: years$

Now,

Mastura's age 6 years ago = (x + 5) - 6

=> x + 5 - 6

=> x - 1

Sofian's age 6 years ago = 2x² + 13x + 15 - 6

= 2x² + 13x + 9

Using the condition provided by the question, 

Mastura's age 6 years ago + Sofian's age 6 years ago = 44

$\longrightarrow \tt (x - 1) + (2 {x}^{2} + 13x + 9) = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt x - 1 + 2 {x}^{2} + 13x + 9 = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt 2 {x}^{2} + 14x + 8 = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt 2 {x}^{2} + 14x + 8 - 44 = 0$

$\longrightarrow \tt 2 {x}^{2} + 14x - 36= 0$

• Taking "2" common.

$\longrightarrow \tt 2 ({x}^{2} + 7x - 18) = 0$

$\longrightarrow \tt {x}^{2} + 7x - 18 = \dfrac{0}{2}$

$\longrightarrow \tt {x}^{2} + 7x - 18= 0$

• Using splitting the middle term

$\longrightarrow \tt {x}^{2} + 9x - 2x - 18 = 0$

$\longrightarrow \tt x(x + 9) - 2(x + 9) = 0$

$\longrightarrow \tt (x + 9) (x - 2) = 0$

either $\tt (x + 9) = 0 \: \: or \: \: (x - 2) = 0$

$\longrightarrow \tt x = - 9 \: \: or \: \: x = 2$

[As the age cannot be negative. So x = - 9 is rejected]

$\therefore \tt \: x = \red{ 2}$

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Verification :}}}}}}$

According to the condition provided by the question, 

• Mastura's age 6 years ago + Sofian's age 6 years ago = 44

$\longrightarrow \tt x - 1 + 2 {x}^{2} + 13x + 9 = 44$

Putting x = 2 we get,

$\longrightarrow \tt 2 - 1 + 2( {2})^{2} + 13(2) + 9 = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt 1 + 2 \times 4 + 26+ 9 = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt 1 + 8 + 26+ 9 = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt 9 + 26+ 9 = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt 18 + 26 = 44$

$\longrightarrow \tt 44 = 44$

Hence verified.

Write a equation of the line whose slope is -1/2 and whose y-intercept is 4

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Hi there!

An equation for this is:

-1/2x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is always in front of the "x"! The y intercept is always added to the slope!
