Can help me with this Please?

The equation of a line is y=-2x+1. What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the first line and passes through (2,2)?

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The equation in slope-intercept form is y=-2x+6.

The equation in standard form is 2x+y=6.

The equation in point-slope form is y-2=-2(x-2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Parallel lines will have the same slope and different y-intercept.

Anyways the slope of y=-2x+1 is -2.

So the equation of our line we are looking for is -2.

So we know our equation is in the form y=-2x+b.

We must inf b using y=-2x+b with (x,y)=(2,2).

y=-2x +b with (x,y)=(2,2)

2=-2(2)+b

2=-4+b

Add 4 on both sides:

2+4=b

Simplify:

6=b

The equation is y=-2x+6.

Now it didn't say what form it wanted.

There are some forms I can give you like standard and point-slope form.

There is also general form but it is not too much different from standard form.

Standard form is ax+by=c where a,b, and c are integers if possible.

Point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.

So let's go for standard form (ax+by=c) first:

y=-2x+6

add 2x on both sides:

2x+y=6

This is standard form because it is in the form

ax+by=c.

Ok we know point (2,2) is on our line and we also know we have slope,m, is -2.

Point-slope form is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2=-2(x-2)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Lets find slope for both bikes one by one

For bike 1 :

There are two points on the graph of Bike 1, these two points are (2,3) and (4,6)

So the slope for bike 1 is : $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

So the slope for bike 1 is : $\frac{6-3}{4-2}$

So the slope for bike 1 is : $\frac{3}{2}$

For bike 2 :

There are two points on the graph of Bike 2, these two points are (4,5) and (8,10)

So the slope for bike 2 is : $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

So the slope for bike 2 is : $\frac{10-5}{8-4}=\frac{5}{4}$

Hence Bike 1 will win the race as slope of line bike1 is greater than slope of line bike 2. So, answer is option D

If one of the sides of the regular polygon pictured has a side length of 3x+2, what is the length of all the sides

leonid [27]

Answer:

3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

The polygon is regular , so all the sides would be equal.

Thus all sides measure same as 3x+2
