Answer:

y  = (2/5)*x + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the line is parallel to the line y = 2/5 x + 17, the slope of the new line has to be the same as well. So far, we have y = (2/5)*x .

Now what we can do is plug in -15 for x and see what we get for y. Because we get -6, we need 18 more to make it 12. Because of that, the y-intercept is 18 to make the equation of the line y  = (2/5)*x + 18.

Answer:

y = 2/5x + 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line will have the same slope of 2/5.

Using the point-slope form of a line:

y - 12 = 2/5(x - -15)

y - 12 = 2/5(x + 15)

y = 2/5x + 6 + 12

y = 2/5x + 18.

The perimeter of rectangle living room is 40 m the living room is 10 m wide what is the length of the living room
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Width of the room = 5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

the rectangular living room is calculated as length * width

The area is given to be equal to 40 sq. meters (area = 40 sq. meters)

Let the width = x meters

Length = X+3 meters

Area = Length * Width

40 = X * (X+3)

40 = X^2 + 3X

We solve this quadratic equation

So x = 5 or x= -8

Width  cannot be negative, so we reject x =-8

So x = 5 is the answer

A carpenter is making a shelf in the shape of a parallelogram. She begins by drawing parallelogram RSTU on a coordinate plane wi
olchik [2.2K]
The coordinates would be (3, 3).

The slope from R to S is given by

m = (0 - 0)/(-4-1) = 0/-5 = 0

The distance from R to S is 5 units straight across.

This means the slope from T to U will be 0, and it will be a horizontal segment.  This means the y-coordinate of U will be 3, since the y-coordinate of T is 3.

The distance from T to U will be 5 as well; -2+5 = 3 for the x-coordinate.

This makes the point (3, 3).

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying the Complex Fraction

Convert Mixed Numbers to Fractions

56114=5654

Method 1 : LCD Multiplication

The LCD for 6 and 4 is 12

Multiply top and bottom by the LCD

12×5612×54=1015

convert to mixed numbers and

reduce fractions where possible

=1015=23

Method 2 : Fraction Division

Divide the top fraction by the bottom

(multiply top by reciprocal of bottom)

56÷54

=56×45

=2030

convert to mixed numbers and

reduce fractions where possible

=2030=23
