Answer:
y = -1/3x + 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
x+3y=2
3y = 2 - x
y = 2/3 - 1/3x
y = -1/3x +2/3
the slope is -1/3 and the equation that is parallel will have the same slope also
y = mx + b
y = -1/3x + b
0 = -1/3(1) + b
0 = -1/3 + b
1/3 = b
y = -1/3x + 1/3
1) Find the graph of a line passing through (-1, 4) and (2, 0).
The slope of two points can be determined by dividing the difference of y-values by the difference of x-values:
The slope of this equation is -4/3. Inputting this into the slope-intercept form of an equation, we get:
To find b, substitute x and y for one of the given coordinate pairs:
0 = (-4/3)(2) + b
0 = -8/3 + b
8/3 = b
Substitute the b value into the equation to finish the line:
Let's use the furthest left point on the triangle to figure out the translation.
Blue triangle = (-5,1)
Black triangle = (-3,-1)
To get from -5 to -3 we moved the triangle 2 units to the right, which means that we added 2.
To get from 1 to -1, we moved the triangle 2 units down, which means we subtracted 2.
Rule: {2, -2}
Hope this helps!
I assume that the parabola in this particular problem is one whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y axis. The formula we're going to use in this case is (x-h)2=4p(y-k). We know variables h and k from the vertex (1,20) but p is not given. However, we can solve for p by substituting values x and y in the formula with the y-intercept:
(0-1)^2=4p(16-20)
Solving for p, p=-1/16.
Going back to the formula, we can finally solve for the x-intercepts. Simply fill in variables p, h and k then set y to zero:
(x-1)^2=4(-1/16)(0-20)
(x-1)^2=5
x-1=(+-)sqrt(5)
x=(+-)sqrt(5)+1
Here, we have two values of x
x=sqrt(5)+1 and
x=-sqrt(5)+1
thus, the answers are: (sqrt(5)+1,0) and (-sqrt(5)+1,0).
