Answer:

The Correct option is Last one $y=-4x-4$

Therefore, equation of the line in slope-intercept that passes through (-2,4) and is parallel to the line $y=-4x-3$ is $y=-4x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$y=-4x-3$

To Find:

Equation of line passing through ( -2, 4) and is parallel to the line y=-4x-3

Solution:

$y=-4x-3$ ..........Given

Comparing with Slope-Intercept form,

$y=mx+c$

Where m =slope

We get

$Slope = m = -4$

We know that parallel lines have Equal slopes.

Therefore the slope of the required line passing through (-2 , 4) will also have the slope = m = -4.

Now the equation of line in slope point form given by

$(y-y_{1})=m(x-x_{1})$

Substituting the points and so we will get the required equation of the line,

$(y-4))=-4(x-(-2))=-4x-8\\\\y=-4x-8+4=-4x-4\\\\y=-4x-4......Equation\ of\ line$

Therefore, equation of the line in slope-intercept that passes through (-2,4) and is parallel to the line $y=-4x-3$ is $y=-4x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara is 8

Sara=$8 per week for 12 weeks

$8×12 weeks=$96

Ava has $24 more than Sara

x*12=96$+$24

12x=120

x=120/12

x=10

Ava's age is 10

Answer:

The volume of the cube is $\mathit{\frac{27}{z^3x^{9}}}$ cu in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Volume of a Cube

Let's have a cube of side length a. The volume of the cube is:

$V=a^3$

The cube of the image has a side length of

$\displaystyle a=\frac{3x^{-3}}{z}\ inches$

Simplifying the expression of the base by converting the negative exponent in the numerator to the denominator:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{3}{zx^{3}}\ inches$

Now find the volume:

$\displaystyle V=\left(\frac{3}{zx^{3}}\ inches\right)^3$

Applying the exponents:

$\displaystyle V=\frac{3^3}{z^3x^{9}}\ inches^3$

$\displaystyle V=\frac{27}{z^3x^{9}}\ inches^3$

The volume of the cube is $\mathbf{\frac{27}{z^3x^{9}}}$ cu in.

Mr. Evan is paid $9.20 per hour for the first 40 hours he works in a week he is paid 1.5 times that rate for each hour after tha

faust18 [17]

That is incorrect. The correct answer should be $398.38
First you take 9.2 times 40 and you get $368 which is how much he got paid for the first 40 hours. now he worked 2.25 hours extra so you take 9.2 * 1.5 because he gets 1.5 times more for extra hours. Then you add that to the $368 and you get $398.38
