A line passes through (2, -6) and (-1,6), what is its equation?

Mathematics

fomenos3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

let x1=2, y1 = -6 ,x2 = -1, y2 = 6

first we find gradient of the line

gradient = (y2-y1) / (x2 -x1)

(6-(-6))/(-1-2)

(6+6)/(-3)

12/-3

-4

equation is;

M=( y-y1)/(x-x1)

whereM is a gradient

we substitute

-4=(y-(-6))/(x-2(

-4=(y+6)/(x-2)

by cross multiplication

-4(x-2)=(y+6)

-4x+8=y+6

-4x+8-6-y=0

-4x-y+2=0

The ratio of the sides of a parallelogram is 3 : 5 and its perimeter is 48 cm, what is its sides?​
pshichka [43]

Answer: 9 and 15

Explanation: For this problem we will be using the formula of the perimeter of the parallelogram and use algebraic equation to solve it.

"The perimeter of a parallelogram is 48cm"

-So we already know the perimeter of this polygon

-We don't know the other sides

-We know both sides are on a ratio of 3/5

-We know the formula for perimeter of a parallelogram is P=2(a+b)

Let's use the formula to solve this. First lets substitute values we know.

1.) Write the formula.

P=2(a+b)

2.) Replace any known values.

48=2(a+b)

3.) This part is the trick part. Since the sides of the parallelogram are on a ratio of 3:5, it means that the first side is 3 times more of any unknown value, while the second side will be 5 times more of that same value. knowing this we can turn this into an Algebraic equation.

48=2(a+b)

48=2(3x+5x)

4.) Solve.

48=2(3x+5x)

48=2(8x)

48=16x

48/16=16x/16

3=x; or x=3

5.) Now that we know our "unknown value", we can though it back into the ration to figure out the sides lengths.

First side length = 3x = 3(3) = 9

Second side length = 5x = 5(3) = 15

6). Therefore, the first side has the length of 9 and the second side has the length of 15.

7.) Check.

P=2(a+b)

P=2(9+15)

p=2(24)

p=48

48=48

svlad2 [7]

ANSWER



x=10


and


y=20




EXPLANATION



Since corresponding angles are equal,


4x+y=60---(1)




Alternate angles are also equal, therefore,


8x+y=100---(2)



Equation (2) minus equation (1) gives,



\Rightarrow 4x=40




\Rightarrow x=10




We put x=10 in to equation (1)





4(10)+y=60



y=60-40




y=20
