The answer is y = -1/2x + 3...all you have to do now is graph it.

Explanation:
4 = -1/2(-2) + b
4 = 1 + b
4 - 1 = 1 - 1 + b
3 = b
b = 3

Which of the following equations have infinitely many solutions?
olga55 [171]

The  following equations have infinitely many solutions:

6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8) ⇒ I

0.5(8x + 4) = 4x + 2 ⇒ II

2(6x + 4) = 4(3x + 2) ⇒ V

The answer is l, ll, and V ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has infinitely many solutions if:

  • The variable is disappeared
  • Then the numerical terms are equal

I.

∵ 6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8)

- Simplify the two sides

∵ 6(2x + 4) = 6(2x) + 6(4) = 12x + 24

∵ 3(4x + 8) = 3(4x) + 3(8) = 12x + 24

∴ 12x + 24 = 12x + 24

- Subtract 12x from both sides

∴ 24 = 24

- The variable disappear and two sides are equal

∴ The equation has infinitely many solutions

II.

∵ 0.5(8x + 4) = 4x + 2

- Simplify the left hand side

∵ 0.5(8x + 4) = 0.5(8x) + 0.5(4) = 4x + 2

∵ The right hand side is 4x + 2

∴ 4x + 2 = 4x + 2

- Subtract 4x from both sides

∴ 2 = 2

- The variable disappear and two sides are equal

∴ The equation has infinitely many solutions

III.

∵ 7x + 8 = 7(x + 8)

- Simplify the right hand side

∵ 7(x + 8) = 7(x) + 7(8) = 7x + 56

∴ 7x + 8 = 7x + 56

- Subtract 7x from both sides

∴ 8 = 56 ⇒ it can not be

∴ L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

∴ The equation has no solution

IV.

∵ 3x + 4 = 7x - 2

- Subtract 3x from both sides

∴ 4 = 4x - 2

- Add 2 to both sides

∴ 6 = 4x

- Divide both sides by 4

∴ 1.5 = x

∴ The equation has one solution

V.

∵ 2(6x + 4) = 4(3x + 2)

- Simplify the both sides

∵ 2(6x + 4) = 2(6x) + 2(4) = 12x + 8

∵ 4(3x + 2) = 4(3x) + 4(2) = 12x + 8

∴ 12x + 8 = 12x + 8

- Subtract 12x from both sides

∴ 8 = 8

- The variable disappear and two sides are equal

∴ The equation has infinitely many solutions

The  following equations have infinitely many solutions:

6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8) ⇒ I

0.5(8x + 4) = 4x + 2 ⇒ II

2(6x + 4) = 4(3x + 2) ⇒ V

Write an equation that is perpendicular to the line 8x-4y=12 and pass through the origin
fenix001 [56]
Answers


Explanation

So first we’re gonna change the equation to y=Mx+b by subtracting the 8x and then dividing both sides by -4. This can be show like this

8x-4y=12
-8x. -8x

-4y=-8x+12
/-4. /-4

Y=2x-3

So now that we have the equation in Y=Mx+b. The problem still isn’t done because it’s asking us to set up an equation that’s perpendicular. Which means the slope becomes the opposite

So the slope isn’t 2 anymore but instead -1/2! So now that we know that we need to make the line go through the origin which is very easy because you can just set the y intercept to 0.

So now that the perpendicular line is

Y=-1/2x or y=-1/2x +0

I hope I explain this well!

The number of employees for a certain company has been decreasing each year by 3%. If the company currently has 810 employees an
8090 [49]

Answer:

219 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

3% of decreasing rate of employees per year is calculated thus:

3\% \: of \: 810 \: employees

=  \frac{3}{100}  \times 810

= 24.3 \: employees \: per \: year

In 9 years,

= 24.3 \times 9

= 218.7 = 219 \: employees

Therefore, the number of employees for a certain company where decreasing rate of employees is 3% and continued to decrease for 9 years; and 810 employees are currently working is 219 employees. By implication, 810 + 219 = 1029 employees were working in the company 9 years ago.
