Write an equation for the line that is parallel to y = 2x + 6 and passes through (-1,5).

Mathematics

Fantom [35]3 years ago

Answer:

y=2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation is typically organized in the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the y-coordinate of the point on the line that crosses the y-axis).

Parallel lines <em>always</em> have the same slope. When we examine the given equation, y=2x+6, we can identify immediately that 2 is in the place of m, the slope. This means that the slope of the line we're trying to solve for is also 2. So far, our equation looks like this:

y=2x+b

The last thing we need to calculate is b, the y-intercept. We can do this by plugging in the given point (-1,5) as x and y.

y=2x+b

5=2(-1)+b

5=-2+b

Add 2 to both sides to isolate b

5+2=-2+b+2

7=b

Now that we know b, we plug that into our original equation and now we have a final equation of:

y=2x+7

I hope this helps!

You go to dinner and decide to leave a 15% tip for your server you had 45 when you came to the restaurant. How much money would
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

$24.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Tip:

15% of 18 = 0.15 x 18 = 2.7

Cost of Dinner:

Tip + Cost of meal = total price

2.7 + 18 = 20.7

Money Remaining:

Starting value - Cost of Dinner = Amount remaining

45 - 20.7 = 24.3

First, we must understand what standard form of a line is. Standard form of a line is written like  such that A,B, and C are all integers, and A must be positive. First, we must calculate the slope of the line that passes through theses coordinates. 

 

<span>As a refresher, this is the equation to figure out the slope of two coordinates.Now, we just simplify the numerator and denominator.  <span>  </span></span>

 

The next step is to utilize point-slope form, which is  where  is a point on the line. Of course, we already know that (7,-3) and (4,-8) both lie of the line. Therefore, plug in one fot he coordinates. Once converted into point-slope, we must then convert into standard form. This is what is demonstrated in the next step. 

 

<span>Let's multiply all sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction early.Distribute the 5 to both terms in the parentheses.Subtract 9 from both sides.Subtract 5x on both sides.We aren't done yet! The coefficient of the x-term must be positive. Therefore, divide by -1 on both sides.<span>This is standard form now, so we are done!</span></span>

2.5 X 10^5 divided by 1.0 X 10^10
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

0.000025

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS (Exponets first.)

10^5 = 100,000

10^10 = 10,000,000,000

rewrite

2.5 x 100,000 divided by 1.0 x 10,000,000,000

PEMDAS (multiplication next.)

2.5 x (10^5) = 250,000

1.0 x (10^10) = 10,000,000,000

rewrite.

250,000 divided by 10,000,000,000 = 0.000025

0.000025
