Answer:

The equation of line parallel to given line passing through (8,-7) is:

y = -\frac{5}{4}x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line is:

5x+4y=16

first of all, we have to convert the equation of given line in slope-intercept form

4y = -5x+16

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4y}{4} = -\frac{5x}{4} + \frac{16}{4}\\y = -\frac{5}{4}x+4

Slope intercept form is:

y=mx+b

The slope of given line is:

m = -\frac{5}{4}

Let m1 be the slope of line parallel to given line

"The slopes of two parallel lines are equal"

m = m_1\\m_1 = -\frac{5}{4}

The equation of line parallel to given line will be:

y = m_1x+b

Putting the value of slope

y = -\frac{5}{4}x+b

Putting the point (8,-7) in the equation

-7 = -\frac{5}{4}(8)+b\\-7 = -(5)(2) + b\\-7 = -10+b\\b = -7 +10\\b = 3

Putting the value of b

y = -\frac{5}{4}x+3

Hence,

The equation of line parallel to given line passing through (8,-7) is:

y = -\frac{5}{4}x+3

How do you do -19+C/3=8 can someone teach how to solve this problem?
ki77a [65]
You're looking for c, so you want to isolate it or get it by itself. To get rid of the /3 you multiply since the opposite of division is multiplication and to get rid of it, you do the opposite (like -9 you would add 9 to get it to 0). Now you are left with -19+c = 24 (the 24 is 8*3 because what you do to one side you do to the other. Now you get c by itself so you add 19 to both sides which leaves you with C= 43. Sorry if this was confusing!

The lengths of the sides of a right triangle are a and b, and the hypotenuse is
mamaluj [8]
A^2+b^2=c^2
(2sqrt3)^2+b^2=16
12+b^2=16
solve for b
b=2
Now triangle area is A=1/2 bh
so
A=(1/2)(2)(2sqrt3)
A=2sqrt3

How can you tell Is something is a unit rate
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Unit rate is a ratio between two different units with a denominator of one. When we divide a fraction's numerator by its denominator, the result is a value in decimal form. For example: 8/4 = 2 and 3/6 = 0.5. When we write numbers in decimal form, we can write them as a ratio with one as the denominator.

For example, we can write 2 as 2/1, and 0.5 as 0.5/1. However, since that approach can be a little clumsy, we usually drop the one. That said, it's important to remember the one is there, especially when working with unit rates.

For instance, 8 miles/4 hours = 2 miles/hour. Notice again that, while we did not include the 1, we did include the unit 'hour' Miles per hour is a familiar expression, as are unit rates such as:

interest/amount invested

revolutions/minute

salary/year

Conversationally, the word ''per'' indicates we are using a unit rate.
