Answer:

y = 6/5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we have to find the equation of the line with the given information.

We know that the the slope is 6/5 and it passes through the point (5, 4)

Lets represent this problem in slope intercept form with just the slope, since we need to find the "y-intercept".

y = 6/5x + b

To find the y-intercept, plug the values of the coordinate into the equation and solve for b:

4 = 6/5(5) + b

Solve for b:

4 = 6/5(5) + b

4 = 30/5 + b

4 = 6 + b

Subtract 6 from both sides to get "b" by itself.

-2 = b

This means that the y-intercept would be -2

When we put in into our slope intercept equation, it should look like this:

y = 6/5x - 2

y = 6/5x - 2 would be the equation of the line

Given the domain (-2,2,4) what is the range for the relation 3x-y=3

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Given the domain, the range for 3x-y = 3 is {-9, 6, 9}

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to put the relation in terms of y ⇒ 3x - y = 3⇒ 3x -3 = y

⇒ y = 3x - 3.

Then you replace the values indicated by the domain to find their "y" values (the ones that constitute the range).

f(-2) = -9

f(2) = 6

f(4) = 9.

Finally, the range for the given domain is {-9, 6, 9}

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (-3, 2)?

zimovet [89]

The answer is D. 4x + 3y = -6
I first found the slope using the slope formula. Then I plugged in the values of the given coordinate and the slope I found into the point slope form equation, then I simplified. Then I manipulated the equation to get x and y on the right side, and the constant on the left side. Finally, I multiplied both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction.
