Hey can someone please help me

Find the equation of the line passes through (-3,-4) and whose slope is 3/2 in slope intercept form. (Algebra 2 or Geometry)

ioda

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. We already have the slope, so our equation so far is y=3/2x+b. We just need to find the b for it to be complete.

To do this, we plug in a point on the line and solve for b. We have a point (-3,-4), so let's use it and solve.

-4=3/2(-3)+b

Undo parentheses.

-4=-9/2+b

Add 9/2 to both sides

b=1/2

Therefore, our equation is y=3/2x+1/2.

Have a wonderful day! :D

What are the coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices P(−4, −1) , Q(2, 2) , and R(2, −3) ?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$(x,y)=(0,\frac{-2}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Vertices of Triangle $P(x_1,y_1)=(-4,-1)$ , $Q(x_2,y_2)=(2, 2)$ and $R(x_3,y_3)=(2,-3)$

To find : Centroid of a triangle

The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of the three medians of the triangle.

The formula to calculate the centroid of a triangle is:

$(x,y)=(\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

Where, $x_1,x_2,x_3,y_1,y_2,y_3$ are the coordinates of the centroid

Substituting the values in the formula gives us:

$(x,y)=(\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

$(x,y)=(\frac{-4+2+2}{3},\frac{-1+2-3}{3})$

$(x,y)=(\frac{0}{3},\frac{-2}{3})$

Therefore, $(x,y)=(0,\frac{-2}{3})$

1. Solve: 6x - 12 < 6<br> 2. Solve: 2(3x-8) >8

8090 [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. here you go mate

step 1

6x - 12 < 6 equation

step 2

6x - 12 < 6 simplify

6x-12+12<6+12

step 3

6x<18 Divide both sides

$\frac{6x}{6}$

answer

x<3

2. Here you go mate

step 1

2(3x-8) >8 equation

step 2

2(3x-8) >8 simplify

6x-16+16>8+16

step 3

6x>24 divide both sides

$\frac{6x}{6} >\frac{24}{6}$

answer

x>4

Use function notation to write the equation of the line

blondinia [14]

$f(x)=mx+b\to y=mx+b$

We have two points:

$(-3,\ 0);\ (-4,\ 7)$

The point slope form of the line:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute

$m=\dfrac{7-0}{-4-(-3)}=\dfrac{7}{-1}=-7$

$y-0=-7(x-(-3))\\\\y=-7(x+3)\\\\y=-7x-21$

Answer:

$f(x)=-7x-21$
