Answer:

The equation is y=x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want a line parallel to the line in the problem it will have the same slope. The equation given in the problem is already in slope intercept form so we can take the slope for the new equation directly from this equation.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is:  y=mx+b

Where  m  is the slope and  b  is the y-intercept value.  

y=1x-2

Therefore the slope is  

m=1

We can now use the point-slope formula to write the equation of the parallel line:

The point-slope formula states:  

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

Where  m  is the slope and  (x1,y1) is a point the line passes through.  

Substituting the information from the problem gives:

(y- (-7)=1(x-2)

(y+7)=1(x-2)

Or, we can solve for  y  to put the equation in slope-intercept form:

y+7=x-2

y+7-7=x-2-7

y+0=x-9

y=x-9

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

c. has 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night for all locations

Step-by-step explanation:

The equinox is the time of the year marked by a nearly equal length of day and night. This word has a Latin root meaning which stands for equality, hence the word 'equinox'. It usually falls on March 21, and September 23 of every year. On these days the sun is above the equator.

The equinox which occurs around September happens in the Northern Hemisphere and is also known as the Fall or Autumnal equinox. Whereas, the equinox which occurs at the Southern Hemisphere is also known as the Spring or Vernal equinox. During an equinox, the tilt of the earth is perpendicular to the sun.

PLEASE HELP WITH MATH CONSTRUCTED RESPONSE!!
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

  1. y = 0.937976x +12.765
  2. $12,765
  3. $31,524
  4. the cost increase each year

Step-by-step explanation:

1. For this sort of question a graphing calculator or spreadsheet are suitable tools. The attached shows the linear regression line to have the equation ...

... y = 0.937976x + 12.765

where x is years since 2000, and y is average tuition cost in thousands.

2. The y-intercept is the year-2000 tuition: $12,765.

3. Evaluating the formula for x=20 gives y ≈ 31.524, so the year-2020 tuition is expected to be $31,524.

4. The slope is the rate of change of tuition with respect to number of years. It is the average increase per year (in thousands). It amounts to about $938 per year.

6th grade math help me pleaseee
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we can rotate it. When rotating, I found that the x and y values switch places in a way.

We would need to rotate it 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin in order to get it in the same position as triangle BDE. This makes statement B correct.

In order to make triangle ABC smaller, the dilation would have to be smaller than one. Counting the right side's length, ABC has 6 squares and BDE has 3.

This would mean 6 * 1/2 = 3, meaning statement D is true.
