Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of line ST = Slope of line PQ = -3.

y = -3x + c

When x = 3, y = -1

=> (-1) = -3(3) + c, c = 8

Therefore the equation of line ST is y = -3x + 8 and the y-intercept is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The given equation of line PQ is :

y = -3x -12.

Comparing the equation with y = mx + c. We get;Slope (m1)= -3

We know the condition of parallel lines is slope of 1st line = slope of 2nd line. (i.e m1=m2).

Therefore, slope of PQ= slope of ST = -3.

Now, The point through which ST passes is (3,-1) and we found its slope as -3.

So, let's use one point formula.

$(y - y1) = m2(x - x1)$

$(y + 1) = - 3(x - 3)$

$y + 1 = - 3x + 9$

$y = - 3x + 8$

Comparing the equation with y = mx+c. We get y-intercept is "8".

Therefore, y-intercept is "8".

Last year, sales at Company X were 10% greater in February than in January, 15% less in March than in Feb, 20% greater in April

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

d. May

Step-by-step explanation:

Working through the chain, we have ...

Feb = 1.10×Jan

Mar = 0.85×Feb = 0.935×Jan

Apr = 1.20×Mar = 1.122×Jan

May = 0.90×Apr = 1.0098×Jan

Jun = 1.05×May = 1.06029×Jan

The multiplier that is closest to 1 is 1.0098, so May has sales closest to January.

_____

The percentage increase or decrease can be converted to a multiplier by adding it to 1. If p% is the percentage change, then adding it to an original value looks like ...

original + p% × original = original × (1 +p%) . . . . . . . distributive property

And p% translates to a decimal number by replacing % with /100 or ×0.01.

10% increase: original × (1 + 10/100) = original × 1.10

15% decrease: original × (1 - 15/100) = original × 0.85

If x - y=5, x + y = 59, and x > y, what is the value of xy?

nlexa [21]

Answer:

864

Step-by-step explanation:

∵X-Y=5 and.

∵X+Y=59 add the two equations

∴2X=64

∴X=32 (substitute in any equation)

∴32 - Y=5

∴Y = 27

∴ So . X×Y=32 × 27=864

PLEASE HELP!!! Which equation represents this ellipse?

Alona [7]

Answer:

y²/25+x²/4=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for an ellipse is either categorized as

x²/c² + y²/d² = 1 . In such an equation, the vertices on the x axis are categorized by (±c,0) and the vertices on the y axis are (0, ±d)

In the ellipse shown, the vertices/endpoints on the x axis are (-2,0) and (2,0). This means that c is equal to 2. Similarly, on the y axis, the endpoints are (5,0) and (-5,0), so d=5.

Our equation is therefore x²/2²+y²/5²=1 = x²/4+y²/25=1

Our answer is therefore the fourth option, or

y²/25+x²/4=1

LONG WORD PROBLEM I KNOW! PLEASE ILL GIVE THANKS BRAINLIEST AND POINTS FOR THIS ANSWER! PLEASE!

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:
5X + 8Y >= 300; intersection at (-20, 50)
Step-by-step explanation:
let t = work hours
0 < t < 30
X = time lawn mowing
Y = time babysitting.
X + Y < 30
5X + 8Y >= 300
We could solve...
X < 30 - Y
5(30 - Y) + 8Y >=300
150 - 5Y + 8Y >= 300
3Y >=150
Y >=50
then X < -20
intersection at (-20, 50)
