Write the equation of a line that is parallel to 4x-2y=3 and is passing through the point (2,1)
Temka [501]

Answer:

y= 2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rewrite the given equation into the form of y=mx+c, so that we can find the gradient of the line. In this form, m (coefficient of x) is the gradient.

4x -2y= 3

2y= 4x -3

<em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>throughout</em><em>:</em>

y = 2x - 1 \frac{1}{2}

Thus the gradient is 2.

Parallel lines have the same gradient thus the line would also have a gradient of 2.

Substitute m=2 into the equation:

y= 2x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates.

When x=2, y=1,

1= 2(2) +c

1= 4 +c

c= 1 -4

c= -3

Thus, the equation of the line is y= 2x -3.

Consider the trinomial 6x2 13x 6. The value of ac is. The value of b is. The two numbers that have a product of ac and a sum of
Verdich [7]

The value of ac is 36 and the value of b is 13. Then the value of ac + b is 49. The two numbers are 4 and 9.

<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>

Polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of variables and coefficients. Variable are called unknown. We can apply arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, etc. But not divisible by variable.

Consider the trinomial 6x² + 13x + 6.

Compare with the standard equation, we have

ax² + bx + c

Then we have

a = 6

b = 13

c = 6

The product of ac will be

ac = 6 × 6 = 36

The sum of ac and b will be

ac + b = 36 + 13 = 49

The two numbers that have a product of ac and a sum of b are 4 and 9.

More about the polynomial link is given below.

Subtract 1.05 from a certain number. Multiply the difference by 0.8, add 2.84 to the product then divide the sum by 0.01 and get
artcher [175]
The number is 6.25.

We will set up an equation for this.  Let x be the unknown number.  Subtracting 1.05 from it gives us

(x-1.05)

Multiplying the difference by 0.8 would give us

0.8(x-1.05)

Adding 2.84 to the product would give us

0.8(x-1.05)+2.84

Dividing the sum by 0.01 would give us

[0.8(x-1.05)+2.84]/0.01 = 700

We will start working backward, cancelling the division by 0.01 first by multiplying:

([0.8(x-1.05)+2.84]/0.01)*0.01 = 700*0.01

0.8(x-1.05)+2.84 =7

Subtract 2.84 from both sides:
0.8(x-1.05)+2.84-2.84 = 7-2.84
0.8(x-1.05) = 4.16

Use the distributive property on the left side:
0.8*x - 0.8*1.05 = 4.16
0.8x - 0.84 = 4.16

Add 0.84 to both sides:
0.8x - 0.84+0.84 = 4.16+0.84
0.8x = 5

Divide both sides by 0.8:
0.8x/0.8 = 5/0.8
x = 6.25
