Answer:

y-1 = 5(x+8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line in point slope form is expressed as;

y-y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is the point

Given

Slope m = 5 (assumed value)

Point (-8,1)

Substitute the given data's into the formula

y -1 = 5(x-(-8))

y-1 = 5(x+8)

Hence the required equation is y-1 = 5(x+8)

30 = 60% of x
x being our variable, we need to figure out what x equals. Use the formula I put in the attachment. Multiply 30 by 60, and then divide the product by 100. That will give you the answer :)

Write an equation of a line in slope intercept form that is parallel to y = 3x+6 and passes through the point (-10, 2.5)
TiliK225 [7]

1) Line should be parallel to y = 3x+6, so slope of this line should be =3.

y=mx +b

y=3x +b

Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-10, 2.5).

2.5 = 3*(-10)+b

b=2.5+30=32.5

y=3x + 32.5

2) The line should be perpendicular to y = -4x -2, so its slope is going to be negative reciprocal m= 1/4.

Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-16, -11).

y=(1/4)x +b

-11=(1/4)*(-16) + b

-11 = -4 +b

b = -7

y=(1/4)x - 7

Point B lies between points A and C, and all three points lie on point AC, which of the following is not true? A. Point B lies o
loris [4]

Answer:

C. Point A lies on ray BC

Step-by-step explanation:

Points A and C can be connected by a segment which would be a measure of the distance between the points. Locating point B between AC, makes the three points lying on segment AC.

A ray extends from a point to infinity, a line extend to infinity on both sides, while a segment is known to have two endpoints. Therefore, points AC are the end points of the segment AC, and point B between this segment confirms that point B lies on the segment AC. Therefore, Point A lies on ray BC is not correct.
