Answer:

x+y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the line x+y=6 and we want to write the equation of the line that's parallel to x+y=6 and passes through the origin (or the point (0,0)) in standard form

Standard form is given as ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients (the values of a, b, and c are numbers).

Note that a CANNOT be 0 and CANNOT be negative

First, let's find the slope of the line that will be parallel to x+y=6, as parallel lines have the same slope.

We'll do this by converting x+y=6 from standard form into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

x+y=6

subtract x from both sides

y=-x+6

although there's no number in front of x, there's the negative sign, which means that the slope of x+y=6 is -1

Since parallel lines have the same slope, the slope of the new, parallel line is also -1

here's our equation so far in slope-intercept form:

y=-x+b

we need to find b

As the line will pass through (0,0), we can substitute it into the equation to solve for b

substitute 0 as x and 0 as y into the equation

0=-(0)+b

multiply

0=0+b

0=b

so the equation in slope-intercept form is y=-x+0

But remember! The problem asks for the answer in standard form

in that case, add x to both sides of the equation

<u>x+y=0</u>

Hope this helps!

Answer:

C. 62

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles in a triangle are equivalent to 180. First find angle C. Which is 64. then subtract that by 180, which is 116. after that we combine like terms then solve for X. Combine like terms: 5x-9=116 X=25 We plug X into angle's A equation. And you get 62. hope this helps :)

Solve for j.<br> j/-2+7=-12<br> j=
tangare [24]
J/-2 + 7 = -12 multiply both sides with 2

-j + 14 = -24 move -14 to the other side and change sign

-j= -24 - 14
-j = -38 and if you divide -38 with -1 you get + 38
j=38

Please help. i dont understand, so if you could kindly please show me step by step
Artemon [7]

4.7244m

convert feet to inches using 1 foot = 12 inches

15.5 feet = 15.5 × 12 = 186 inches

multiply this by 2.54 to convert to cm

186 inches = 186 × 2.54 = 472.44 cm

now 1m = 100cm

divide 472.44 by 100 to convert to m

472.44 ÷ 100 =4.7244m
