Find the equation of the line that passes through (1, -1) and is parallel to
daser333 [38]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

2x+y-3=0\implies y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-2} x+3 \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line with a slope of -2 and that passes through (1 , -1)

(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad \qquad \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-1)}=\stackrel{m}{-2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{1}) \\\\\\ y+1=-2x+2\implies y=-2x+1

Brainliest + Points!<br><br> Please explain !
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

A) -2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that for a slope, the slope of the line is found by using the equation:

slope = (rise/run).

In this case, find two points. For example, i will use:

(0, 2) & (5, 0). (x = 0, y = 2) ; (x = 5, y = 0)

Note that "rise" = y, and "run" = x. Plug in the corresponding numbers for the corresponding points.

(2 - 0)/(0 - 5) = slope

Simplify

(2)/(-5) = slope

-(2/5) is your answer.

Note that it does not matter where the negative sign is placed.

Can someone help pls
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

I think it may be D

Step-by-step explanation:

A coefficient is the number being multiplied by the variable. A variable is a letter that holds an number like  w x 7=?  W=6. And a constant is the number by itself. In this expression 5000 is the constant 20 is the coefficient and teh variable is w so I think it is D

What is the trigonometric ratio for cosn? enter your answer, as a simplified fraction, in the boxes. $$ triangle l m n with righ
hjlf

The trigonometric ratio will be Cos(n)=12/13

<h3>What will be the trigonometry ratio?</h3>

Given is a Right triangle LMN with right angle at M i.e. angle M = 90 degrees.

Given are the sides LM = 15, MN = 36, and LN = 39.

It says to find cos(n) = ?

So opposite side would be LM, adjacent side would be MN, and LN is the hypotenuse.

We know that the cosine ratio is given by :-

Cos(n)=\dfrac{adjacent}{Hypotenuse}

Cos(n)=\dfrac{MN}{LN}

Cos(n)=\dfrac{36}{39}

Cos(n)=\dfrac{12}{13}

Hence the required ratio will be   Cos(n)=\dfrac{12}{13}
