Find the equation of a line that is parallel to the line y=-3x-1 and crosses the y-axis at (0,-8).

1) A business man gives N18 000,00 to his three children

pashok25 [27]

Answer: The least share is N450000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Amount shared = N18 00000

Sharing ratio = 5:4:3

Amount shared by each child :

Total ratio = (5 + 4 + 3 )= 12

First share :

(5 / 12) × 1800000 = 750000

Second share :

(4/12) × 1800000 = 600000

Third share:

(3/12) × 1800000 = 450000

The least amount of the three shares is :

N450000

Answer:

$x = 3 + 4\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

OPQ is a right angle triangle.

Using Pythagoras

$x^{2} + (x+5)^{2} = (x+8)^{2}\\x^{2} + x^{2} + 10x +25 = x^{2} + 16x + 64\\x^{2} + x^{2} - x^{2} + 10x - 16x + 25 - 64 = 0\\x^{2} - 6x -39 = 0$

Using quadratic formula

$x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\\x = \frac{-(-6) \± \sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4(1)(-39)}}{2(1)}\\x = \frac{6}{2} \± \frac{\sqrt{192}}{2}\\x = 3 \± \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2}\\x = 3 \± 4\sqrt{3}$

$x = 3 + 4\sqrt{3} = 9.928(4s.f.)$

OR

$x = 3 - 4\sqrt{3} = -3.928(4s.f.)$ (Length can't be negative)

∴ $x = 3 + 4\sqrt{3}$

Answer:

$2000 was invested at 5% and $5000 was invested at 8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the interest is simple interest.

Simple Interest Formula

I = Prt

where:

I = interest earned.
P = principal invested.
r = interest rate (in decimal form).
t = time (in years).

Given:

Total P = $7000
P₁ = principal invested at 5%
P₂ = principal invested at 8%
Total interest = $500
r₁ = 5% = 0.05
r₂ = 8% = 0.08
t = 1 year

Create two equations from the given information:

$\textsf{Equation 1}: \quad \sf P_1+P_2=7000$

$\textsf{Equation 2}: \quad \sf P_1r_1t+P_2r_2t=I\implies 0.05P_1+0.08P_2=500$

Rewrite Equation 1 to make P₁ the subject:

$\implies \sf P_1=7000-P_2$

Substitute this into Equation 2 and solve for P₂:

$\implies \sf 0.05(7000-P_2)+0.08P_2=500$

$\implies \sf 350-0.05P_2+0.08P_2=500$

$\implies \sf 0.03P_2=150$

$\implies \sf P_2=\dfrac{150}{0.03}$

$\implies \sf P_2=5000$

Substitute the found value of P₂ into Equation 1 and solve for P₁:

$\implies \sf P_1+5000=7000$

$\implies \sf P_1=7000-5000$

$\implies \sf P_1 = 2000$

$2000 was invested at 5% and $5000 was invested at 8%.

Parallel to y=2/3x+4 and goes through (-9,-2)

Ostrovityanka [42]

Hey there :)

y = $\frac{2}{3}x + 4$

Since this line is parallel to the line to be found, both have the same slope: $\frac{2}{3}$

Coordinates: ( - 9 , - 2 )

y - ( -2 ) = $\frac{2}{3}$ ( x - ( -9 ) )
$y + 2 = \frac{2}{3} x + 6$
$y = \frac{2}{3} x + 6 - 2$

$y = \frac{2}{3}x + 4$
