What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the given line. (1 Point) y = 3x+5

1 answer:

4 0

Slope = 3

Given the equation y = 3x + 5, the slope is 3. The slope of a line parallel to the given line would possess the same slope because they never touch. So the slope would simply be 3 as well.

PLEASE HELP! A positive number is 1/3 of another number. The sum of the numbers is five less than the square of the larger numbe

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The numbers are 1 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = smaller number , y= larger number.

As per given,

$x=\dfrac{y}{3}$ ...(i)

$x+y=y^2-5$ ...(ii)

Put value of x from (i) in (ii)

$\dfrac{y}{3}+y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac43y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-4y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-9y+5y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y(y-3)+5(y-3)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y-3)(3y+5)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=3 \ \ or\ y=\dfrac{-5}{3}$

Since numbers are positive , so y=3 is correct.

And x will be 1 [from (i)]

Hence, the numbers are 1 and 3.

A basketball player made 80 baskets in a season. Of these, 20% were three-point shots. Determine the number of three-point shots

Amanda [17]

The answer is 16 three-point shots.
The way to do this is by doing 100 / 20 which is 5, and then you would do the total (80) divided by 5 which is 16
