Answer:

y=\frac{3}{2} x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>What we need to know:</u>

  • Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form:
  • y=mx+b where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)
  • Parallel lines will always have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

<u>1) Determine the slope of the parallel line</u>

Organize 3x = 2y into slope-intercept form. Why? So we can easily identify the slope, m.

3x = 2y

Switch the sides

2y=3x

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate y

\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{3}{2} x\\y=\frac{3}{2} x

Now that this equation is in slope-intercept form, we can easily identify that \frac{3}{2} is in the place of m. Therefore, because parallel lines have the same slope, the parallel line we're solving for now will also have the slope \frac{3}{2} . Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=\frac{3}{2} x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept</u>

y=\frac{3}{2} x+b

Plug in the given point, (4,0)

0=\frac{3}{2} (4)+b\\0=6+b

Subtract both sides by 6

0-6=6+b-6\\-6=b

Therefore, -6 is the y-intercept of the line. Plug this into y=\frac{3}{2} x+b as b:

y=\frac{3}{2} x-6

I hope this helps!

Help!! <br><br> I think I got these wrong, so please help!! Thank you!
Andrew [12]

Answer:

(x+3)(x+4)(x-4)

x+2 and x-3 are not factors but x-4 is

Step-by-step explanation:

let's factor it :)

x^3 + 3x^2 - 16x -48

first we will factor this:

x^3 + 3x^2

x^2(x + 3)

then factor the second part :

- 16x - 48

-16(x + 3)

so now,

x^2(x + 3) - 16(x + 3)

factor out x+3

(x+3)(x^2 - 16)

factor x^2 - 16

(x+3)(x+4)(x-4)

The diameter of a circle is 5 ft. Find the circumference to the nearest tenth(urgent)
defon

Answer:

15.71

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the radius, half the diameter because r x 2 = diameter. 5/2 = 2.5

Put in circumference formula C=2πr

c=2 x 3.14 x 2.5

c= 2 x 7.85

c=15.7

Put the value into the circle circumference formula C=2πr
