Answer:

The equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = -2 and passes through the point (-5, 4) is x=-5

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = -2 and passes through the point (-5, 4)

We need a line parallel to x=-2 or x+2=0 it should be of form x+k=0

We need to find k, by putting value of x=-5 as given in question the point(-5,4)

-5+k=0

k=5

So, the equation of line will be found by putting k=5:

x+k=0

x+5=0

x=-5

So, the equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = -2 and passes through the point (-5, 4) is x=-5

Option A is correct.

Answer:

A. Equation is $c=25+15.75x$

B. Cost is $88

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose you rent for x hours and each hour costs $15.75

<u><em>How much would you need to pay?</em></u>

$15.75x$

Moreover, there is a $25 dollar (fixed) deposit for renting, so that gets added to your payment. All in all, you have to pay $25+15.75x$

This is the equation of renting a snowboard for x hours.

Equation is $c=25+15.75x$

Where x is the number of hours you rent the snowboard, and
c is the total cost

If you are renting from 8.30 to 12.30, you are basically renting for 4 hours.

To know how much it will cost, you simply plug in 4 into x (in the equation):

$c=25+15.75x\\c=25+15.75(4)\\c=88$

Cost is $88

Answer:

The value of y is 3 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Perimeter of triangle = $29\ cm$

Solution,

Lets redraw the triangle with nomenclature ABC, given in the attachment.

∴P(ΔABC) = 29 cm (P stands for perimeter)

Length of AB = $y+9$

Length of BC = $2y$

Length of CA = $4y-1$

Now, we all know that the perimeter of a triangle is sum of all the three sides of triangle.

P(ΔABC) = Length of AB+Length of BC+Length of CA

On substituting the values, we get;

$(y+9)+2y+(4y-1)=29\\y+2y+4y+9-1=29\\7y+8=29\\7y=29-8\\7y=21\\y=\frac{21}{7} =3\ cm$

Length of AB = $y+9=3+9=12\ cm$

Length of BC = $2y=2\times3=6\ cm$

Length of CA = $4y-1=4\times3-1=12-1=11\ cm$

Hence the value of y is 3 cm.
