Write an equation of a line that is parallel to y = 3x – 5 and goes through the point (3, 1).

1 answer:

5 0

Paralell means has same lsope
y=mx+b
m=slope

given
y=3x-5
slope=3

y=3x+b
find b
(3,1)
x=3
y=1
sub and find b

1=3(3)+b
1=9+b
minus 9 both sides
-8=b

y=3x-8 is equation

The area of a square is 144cm2.what is the measurement of each side

Dmitry [639]

The area of a square is 144 cm^2. The measurement of each side is 12 cm

Solution:

Given, The area of a square is 144 $cm^2$

We have to find that what is the measurement of each side.

Now, we know that, area of a square = product of side value with another side value.

Let the side value of given square be "s"

Then, Area of square is given as:

$\begin{array}{l}{\text {area of square}=s \times s} \\\\ {\text {Area of square}=s^{2}} \\\\ {144=s^{2}} \\\\ {s=\sqrt{144}} \\\\ {s=\sqrt{12^{2}}}\end{array}$
