Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y=-5/4x + 7
Any line parallel to the given line will have the same slope. In an equation presented in the y-intercept form, the slope is always the coefficient of "x". In this case, the slope is -5/4 (meaning the next point is down 5, and 4 to the right).
Our equation so far looks like this: y = -5/4x + b
"b" represents the y-intercept. To solve for be, we will need to substitute values into x and y. The next piece of information it gives us is one of the points, or solutions, of the line. This means that since this point is on the line, we can use its x and y values to substitute.
x = -4
y= 1
y = -5/4x + b
1 = -5/4(-4) + b
1 = 5 + b
-4 = b
Final Answer: y = -(5/4)x -4
H should equal 96
because 10 - 6 equals 4
96 divided by 4 equals 24
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The altitude of the triangle must equal 4 because it is a right triangle with another leg of 3 and a hypotenuse of 5 (reason is due to the pythagorean theorem)
Therefore, the triangle on the right has legs of 4 and 7 and, again, use the phythagorean theorem to find 'x' (the hypotenuse)

16 + 49 =
65 =
x = sq rt 65
Answer:
x = 16
y = 16 sqrt(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
sin theta = opp/hyp
sin 60 = y/ 32
Multiply each side by 32
32 sin 60 = y
32 ( sqrt(3) /2) = y
16 sqrt(2)
cos theta = adj/ hyp
cos 60 = x /32
32 cos 60 = x
32 (1/2) =x
16 =x
Enable M = Mary's age now So Mike's age is 3M 3M + 4 = 2 (M + 4) = 2M + 8 Now, subtract 2M from the two factors. then you definitely have: M + 4 = 8 or M = 4 examine: Mike is now 12. In 4 years, Mary would be 8 and Mike would be sixteen.
