Answer:

y + 7 = -5/4(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for point slope form is [ y - y1 = m(x - x1) ].

We are already given all the information needed so fill it in into the formula.

y - (-7) = -5/4(x - 4)

y + 7 = -5/4(x - 4)

Best of Luck!

Which description best compares the graphs given by the equations: x-5y=-5 5x-25y=75
yulyashka [42]

Considering the slopes of the given lines, they are parallel lines.

<h3>When are lines parallel, perpendicular or neither?</h3>

The slope, given by <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>, determines if the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, as follows:

  • If they are equal, the lines are parallel.
  • If their multiplication is of -1, they are perpendicular.
  • Otherwise, they are neither.

The first line, in standard form, is given by:

5y = x + 5

y = 0.2x + 1.

The slope is of m = 0.2.

For the second line, we have that:

25y = 5x - 75

y = 0.2x - 3

The slope is of m = 0.2.

Same slope, hence the lines are parallel.

\begin{aligned} &amp;-5y=-5 \\\\ &amp;7x+6y=7 \end{aligned}
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

(5,1) is not a solution of the above system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a system of equations that are  

- 5y = - 5 ......... (1) and  

7x + 6y = 7 ........... (2)

So, solving equation (1) we get y = 1 and putting y = 1 in the equation (2) we get 7x = 7 - 6(1) = 1

⇒ x = \frac{1}{7}

So, it clear from the solution of the above equations i.e. (\frac{1}{7}, 1), we can say that (5,1) is not a solution of the above system of equations. (Answer)

Answer:

if those measurements are degrees, then yes. If those measurements are the side lengths, then no.

Step-by-step explanation:

all angles on a triangle must had up to 180 degrees.

the two smaller sides of the triangle must add up to be larger than the largest side.
