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.

Write the expression as the sine, cosine, or tangent of an angle. cos 107° cos 42° + sin 107° sin 42°

7nadin3 [17]

Let a =107° and b=42°;

So cos 107° cos 42° + sin 107° sin 42° = cosa.cos42 + sina.sinb = cos(a-b)

and cos 107° cos 42° + sin 107° sin 42° = cos(107-42) = cos(65°)

Which of the following formulas, when evaluated using rational values for the variables, will result in an irrational number?

Lerok [7]

Answer:

a) The formula for the area of a circle

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle is

A = πr²

π is an irrational number and, no matter what value you use for r, the area will be an irrational number,

b) is wrong. A = ½(a + b)h.

c) is wrong. A = ½bh.

d) is wrong. A = bh.

All measurements are rational numbers, so the areas will be rational numbers.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! FINALS!

GenaCL600 [577]

Factor completely x³ + 6x² - 3x – 18
$- 6 + 6( - 6)^{2} - 3( - 6) - 18 \\ - 6 +6 \times 6 ^{2} + 18 - 18 \\ - 6 + 6 ^{3} + 18 - 18 \\ - 6 + 216 \\ 210$
with a root of x = -6

the answer is 210
