Answer:

Let's solve for a.

2(3x+4)=ax+b

Step 1: Flip the equation.

ax+b=6x+8

Step 2: Add -b to both sides.

ax+b+−b=6x+8+−b

ax=−b+6x+8

Step 3: Divide both sides by x.

−b+6x+8

Which statements about the line that passes through (−2, 0) and (2, −4) are true? Select all that apply.

Gennadij [26K]

The statement about the line that passes through (-2, 0) and (2, -4) that are true are:

Option B:The line intersects the y-axis at (0, −2).

Option C: The equation of the line is y = −x − 2.

Option D: The line intersects the x-axis at (−2, 0).

Solution:

Given, two points are (-2, 0) and (2, -4)

We have to select the options that states true about line that passes through given two points.

Now, let us find the line equation that passes through given two points using point slope form.

$\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{y}_{1}=\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}_{1}\right) \text { where } \mathrm{m} \text { is slope and }\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}, \mathrm{y}_{1}\right) \text { is a point on the line. }$

Now slope "m" is given as:

$\mathrm{m}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{0-(-4)}{-2-2}=\frac{4}{-4}=-1$

Then, line equation = y – 0 = -1(x – (-2))

y = -1(x + 2)

y = -x – 2 --- equation 1

Now let us check options.

Option a) slope of line is 1

We know that slope of our line is -1 so this option is wrong.

Option b) line intersects y – axis at (0, -2)

When line meets y – axis x becomes 0 ⇒ 0 + y + 2 = 0 ⇒ y = -2 so point is (0, -2).

This option is right.

Option c) equation of line is y = -x – 2

The given equation is x + y + 2 = 0 ⇒ y = -x – 2 . so this option is correct.

Option d) line intersects at (-2, 0)

When line meets x – axis y becomes 0 ⇒ x + 0 + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = -2. So point is (-2, 0).

This option is right.

Hence, options b, c, d are correct.

Which is another way to check the sum of 104+34+228+877?

Alex787 [66]

The answer is digit sum method.

Digit sum method is method used to check the sum of sum numbers. If the sum of all of the digits of numbers is equal to the sum of all of the digits of the total sum, then the arithmetic process was correct.

We need to check the sum of 104+34+228+877:
104 + 34 + 228 + 877 = 1243

Let's first summarize the digits of individual numbers:
104 *** 1 + 0 + 4 = 5
34 *** 3 + 4 = 7
228 *** 2 + 2 + 8 = 12 *** 1 + 2 = 3
877 *** 8 + 7 + 7 = 22 *** 2 + 2 = 4

Now, let's sum these sums:
5 + 7 + 3 + 4 = 19 *** 1 + 9 = 10 *** 1 + 0 = 1

Then, let's summarize the digits of the total sum:
1243 *** 1 + 2 + 4 + 3 = 10 *** 1 + 0 = 1

Since the sums of the digits on the both sides of equation is 1, than the arithmetic process was correct and the sum of 104 + 34 + 228 + 877 is really 1243.

Write an equation of the line passing through the point (3, 4) that is parallel to the line −2x+3y=2

mote1985 [20]

Parallel lines have same slope, so first isolate y to get the equation into y=mx+b form.

-2x+3y=2

3y = 2x + 2

$y = \frac{2x+2}{3}$

Now plug the point (3,4) into y = 2x + b

4 = 2(3) + b

Solves for be

b = -2

So the new equation is y = 2x - 2
