When y=-2, what kind of line does it have horizontal or vertical

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rashid [163]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Horizontal

Step-by-step explanation: The equation <em>y = -2</em> can be thought of as y = 0x - 2. So our line has a slope of 0 and a y-intercept of -2.

To graph it, we start with the y-intercept, down 2 units on the y-axis. Now, if the slope of a line is 0, then the line must be flat or horizontal.

So we just draw a horizontal line through the y-intercept of -2.

In fact, when the equation of any line reads y = a number, it's graph will always be a horizontal line. For example, y = 3, y = -10, y = -8 and so on.

Consider the following system of equations. -10x2-10y2=-300 5x2+5y2=150 Which statement describes why the system has infinite so
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The equations represent circles that result in the same graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

-10x^{2}-10y^{2}=-300

Divide by -10 both sides

x^{2}+y^{2}=30 -----> equation A

This is the equation of a circle centered at origin with radius r=\sqrt{30} \ units

and

5x^{2}+5y^{2}=150

Divide by 5 both sides

x^{2}+y^{2}=30 -----> equation B

This is the equation of a circle centered at origin with radius r=\sqrt{30} \ units

equation A and equation B are equal

therefore

The system has infinite solutions, because the equations represent circles that result in the same graph.

Set up a System of Equations and Solve
Bumek [7]

Answer:

The cost of each ice cream cone is $4.50

The cost of each ice cream basket is $3.75

The cost of each donut is $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the cost of the ice cream cone

y----> the cost of the ice cream basket

z---> the cost of the donut

we know that

2x+y=12.75 ------> y=12.75-2x ------> equation A

x+2z=7.50 ------> z=(7.50-x)/2 -----> equation B

x+y+z=9.75 ----> equation C

substitute equation A and equation B in equation C and solve for x

x+(12.75-2x)+((7.50-x)/2)=9.75

Multiply by 2 both sides

2x+25.50-4x+7.50-x=19.50

3x=25.50+7.5-19.50

3x=13.5

x=$4.50

Find the value of y

y=12.75-2(4.50)=$3.75

Find the value of z

z=(7.50-4.50)/2=$1.50

therefore

The cost of each ice cream cone is $4.50

The cost of each ice cream basket is $3.75

The cost of each donut is $1.50

Eric ordered 6 tacos and 1 large pop. The large pop costs $2.00 and the total cost of his order was
pshichka [43]

Answer: 6x + $2= $21.50

Step-by-step explanation:

To make an equation first we are going to give the cost of each taco the variable x since we don't know what it is. Then we will combine 6 multiplied by x to get 6x and add it to $2 to get $21.50 so the equation will be 6x + $2= $21.50. First we subtract 2 from both sides of the equation which makes the equation become 6x= $19.50. Then we divide both sides of the equation by 6 and get x=$3.25. This means that each taco cost $3.25.

A braid was bought to put around a blanket that measures 23 inches by 24 inches. At $0.60 per yard how much was paid for the bra
mojhsa [17]
To do this you need 94 inches of braid. 

94 inches =  ? yards

1 inch = 0.0277778 yard

94 × 0.0277778 =  <span>2.6111132.

Since you can only pay for a full yard you would buy 3 yards which would cost:- 

$0.60 </span>× 3 = $1.80.

So for this you would need 3 yards which would cost $1.80. 

Hope I helped:P
