Complete question :

Scottie is standing next to a lighthouse on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. The cliff is 30 meters above

sea level, and the lighthouse has a height of 15 meters. There is a man fishing in a boat directly below Scottie who

has hooked a fish that is 10 meters below the surface of the water.

a. Use positive and negative numbers to represent the locations in relation to sea level.

Scottie =

Top of the lighthouse =

The boat =

The fish =

meters

b. How far is Scottie from the fish?

Answer:

30 m ;

15 m ;

0 m;

40 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Scottie's position = standing on cliff

Height of cliff = 30 m above sea level

Height of lighthouse = 15 meters

Position of fish = 10m below sea level

Above sea level = positive, +

Below sea level = negative, -

Scottie's position = 30 m

Top of lighthouse = 15m

BOAT = surface of sea = 0m

Fish = - 10 m

Distance of Scottie from fish :

Scottie's position - Position of fish

30m - (-10)m

30m + 10m

= 40m

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)
