Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope

only the constant changes

y = 2x + b

To find "b"

Plug in point (3, 3)

3 = 2(3) + b

3 = 6 + b

Subtract 6 from both sides

-3 = b

The equation for the parallel line is

y = 2x - 3

Answer:

1) 0.5

2)-2

3)-23

Step-by-step explanation:

1) -3×1=-3

-3+2.5= 0.5

2) -3×1.5=-4.5

-4.5+2.5= -2

3) -3×8.5=-25.5

-25.5+2.5=-23

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to LaTeX: y=-\frac{1}{5}x+3y = − 1 5 x + 3 and goes through the point (4, -3

Elenna [48]

Answer:

$y=5x-23$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the given line

we have

$y=-\frac{1}{5}x+3$ -----> given line

The slope of the given line is

$m=-\frac{1}{5}$

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal

therefore

The slope of the line that is perpendicular to the given line is

$m=5$

step 2

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=5\\point\ (4,-3)$

substitute

$-3=5(4)+b$

solve for b

$b=-23$

therefore

$y=5x-23$

The can of wood stain is twice as wide but half as tall as the can of paint. What is true about the areas of their labels?

MAXImum [283]

In this case the areas would be exactly the same. To prove this, think of a can of stain as 4 inches wide by 6 inches tall/long. If the can of paint is 8 inches wide and 3 inches tall/ long, both areas would be 24 inches squared. By cutting one dimension in half and doubling the other dimension, you do not change the overall area.
