Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -x + 1......same as y = -1x + 1.....in y = mx + b form, ur slope is in the m position....so the slope of this line is -1.
a parallel line will have the same slope.
(-1,3)...x = -1 and y = 3
slope(m) = -1
y = mx + b.....we have x,y, and m....now we need to find y int (b)
3 = -1(-1) + b
3 = 1 + b
3 - 1 = b
2 = b
so ur parallel equation is : y = -1x + 2...or just y = -x + 2
Answer:
x = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a line parallel to the top and bottom parallel lines so this new line goes through the pointed end of x.
Draw another line parallel to the top and bottom lines through the pointy end of 45.
The bottom angle of the line through 45 is 15 degrees (alternate interior angles.
The top angle is 45 - 15 = 30
The bottom angle of the line going to x is 150 degrees. It and the 30 degree angle make 180. 30 + 150 = 180
One final observation The top angle of made by the line going through x is 180 - 25 = 155
What you have now is
155 + 150 + x = 360
305 + x = 360
x = 360 - 305
x = 55
Answer:
(2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
because that's where the lines intersect
Let the three gp be a, ar and ar^2
a + ar + ar^2 = 21 => a(1 + r + r^2) = 21 . . . (1)
a^2 + a^2r^2 + a^2r^4 = 189 => a^2(1 + r^2 + r^4) = 189 . . . (2)
squaring (1) gives
a^2(1 + r + r^2)^2 = 441 . . . (3)
(3) ÷ (2) => (1 + r + r^2)^2 / (1 + r^2 + r^4) = 441/189 = 7/3
3(1 + r + r^2)^2 = 7(1 + r^2 + r^4)
3(r^4 + 2r^3 + 3r^2 + 2r + 1) = 7(1 + r^2 + r^4)
3r^4 + 6r^3 + 9r^2 + 6r + 3 = 7 + 7r^2 + 7r^4
4r^4 - 6r^3 - 2r^2 - 6r + 4 = 0
r = 1/2 or r = 2
From (1), a = 21/(1 + r + r^2)
When r = 2:
a = 21/(1 + 2 + 4) = 21/7 = 3
Therefore, the numbers are 3, 6 and 12.
