Write an equation for the line parallel to y= -2x+1 that contains (-2,5)

grin007 [14]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallels line have the same slope, when an equation is in the form y= mx + b, m is the slope. In this problem slope = - 2

Now with the slope what is missing is the y-intercept, the problem says that the line contains the point (-2, 5), replacing that point in the equation you can solve it to find the y-intercept

y = mx + b

5 = (-2)(-2) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 + b

y = - 2x +1

In the given parallelogram ABCD, find the value of x and y

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The consecutive angles are supplementary, sum to 180° , then

3y + 2y - 5 = 180

5y - 5 = 180 ( add 5 to both sides )

5y = 185 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 37

Then ∠ A = 3y = 3 × 37 = 111

The opposite angles are congruent , then

3x + 3 = 111 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

3x = 108 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 36

---------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)

The diagonals bisect each other , so

x + 8 = 16 - x ( add x to both sides )

2x + 8 = 16 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4

and

5y + 4 = 2y + 13 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

3y + 4 = 13 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

3y = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 3

A started some business with RS 26,000. After 3 month B joined him with Rs. 16,000. After some more time C joined them with Rs.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

$3$ $months$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total investment period is 1 year, then since A started, A invested Rs 26,000.

Now, since A has been working for 12 months, this is where the effective investment comes in:

A effective investment = Rs 312,000

Then after 3 months, B joined, so:

12 months - 3 months = 9 months in work

B overall invested = Rs 16,000

Since B only worked nine months, we use that to find effective investment:

B effective investment = Rs 144,000

C joined x months since B joined in:

We don't know how much C worked for, but we know that C joined after B:

C investment period = 9 months - x certain amount of months

We know that C's investment is Rs 25,000

Find effective investment:

Rs 25,000 * ( 9 - x ) = Rs 225,000 - 25,000x then to find the total investment:

Add all effective investment:

Rs 312,000 + Rs 144,000 + Rs 225,000 - 25,000x

= Rs 681000 - 25,000x

We now know that C's investment is 225,000 - 25,000x

Find profit share: 225,000 - 25,000x

==> Rs 3,825

The total profit:

Rs 15,453

To get our final answer, we must do this operation:

C investment divided by Total Investment = C's profit and total profit:

( Rs 225,000 - 25,000x) ÷ ( Rs 681,000 - 25,000x ) = Rs 3,825 / Rs 15,453

25 ( Rs 9,000 - 1,000x)/(Rs 681,000 - 25,000x) = (153 * 25) /(153 * 101)

( Rs 9,000 - 1,000x ) ÷ ( Rs 681,000 - 25,000x ) = 1 / 101

Rs 909,000 - 101,000x = Rs 681,000 - 25,000x

Rs 228,000 = 76,000x

Rs 228 = 76x

x = 3
