Answer:

Substitute in the values of both given coordinates & form 2 equations:

\left \{ {{A(2)+B(-1)=1} \atop {A(-3)+B(-2)=1}} \right. \\\\=\left \{ {{2A-B=1} \atop {-3A-2B=1}} \right.

Find the value of B from the equation 2A - B = 1:

2A-B=1\\-B=1-2A\\B=2A-1

Substitute in the B-value to the other equation:

-3A-2B=1\\-3A-2(2A-1)=1\\-3A-4A+2=1\\-7A=1-2\\-7A=-1\\A=\frac{-1}{-7} =\frac{1}{7}

Find the B-value using the equation from before:

B=2A-1=2(\frac{1}{7})-1=\frac{2}{7} -\frac{7}{7} =-\frac{5}{7}  

Therefore the equation Ax + By = 1 would equal:

\frac{1}{7} x-\frac{5}{7} y=1

When adding fractions all denominators must be the same. You multiple 2/3 by 4 so it becomes 8/12 and the same with the others. The answer is 19/12

A rug is shaped like a parallelogram with a base of 41⁄2 ft. and a height of 2 1⁄4 ft. What is the area of the rug? Draw and lab
Bess [88]

Answer:

46.125 square feet or 46\dfrac{1}{8} sq. feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rug is shaped like a parallelogram with a base of \frac{41}{2} = 20.5 feet. and a height of 2\dfrac{1}{4} = 2.25 feet.

Now, the area of a parallelogram is given by the product of one side as the base and the perpendicular distance of that side from the opposite parallel side as height.

Now, the area of the given parallelogram is (20.5 × 2.25) = 46.125 square feet. (Answer)

Answer:  Graph D (bottom right corner)

======================================================

Explanation:

The equation y = 3x+3 is in slope intercept form y = mx+b

m = 3 = slope

b = 3 = y intercept

In this case, both the slope and y intercept are the same (though in general they tend not to be).

The positive slope value means the line goes uphill as you move from left to right. The positive y intercept means the diagonal line crosses the y axis somewhere above the horizontal x axis. Specifically, it crosses the y axis at y = 3

Graph D is the only graph that has such a line on it. Graphs A, B and C have the positive slope line where they have a negative y intercept, so we can rule them out.

You can use graphing tools such as Desmos or Geogebra to help confirm this answer. You could also make a table of values, and plot each point, to form the lines. Two points is the minimum amount needed to form any line.
