Identify an equation in slope intercept form for the line parallel to y= -2/3x+8 that passes through (4, -5)

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

3y = -2x -7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line;

y = $-\frac{2}{3}$ x + 8

Unknown:

Equation of the line passing through (4, -5);

Solution:

To solve this problem;

the equation of a line is given as;

y = mx + c

where x and y are the coordinate

m is the slope

c is the intercept

To solve this problem,

The slope $-\frac{2}{3}$ if the same as that of the new line since they are parallel;

Equation of the new line;

x = 4 and y = -5

-5 = $-\frac{2}{3}$ x 4 + c

-5 = $-\frac{8}{3}$ + c

c = -5 + $\frac{8}{3}$

c = $-\frac{7}{3}$

So, the equation of the line is;

y = $-\frac{2}{3}$ x - $\frac{7}{3}$

or ;

3y = -2x -7

Find A and B. Using the image above.

NeX [460]

Answer:

a = 7, b = $\frac{7\sqrt{3} }{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the left right triangle and the exact value

sin45° = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ , then

sin45° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{a}{7\sqrt{2} }$ = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ ( cross- multiply )

a × $\sqrt{2}$ = 7 $\sqrt{2}$ ( divide both sides by $\sqrt{2}$ )

a = 7

--------------------------------------------------------

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle on the right and the exact value

tan60° = $\sqrt{3}$ , then

tan60° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{a}{b}$ = $\frac{7}{b}$ = $\sqrt{3}$ ( multiply both sides by b )

b × $\sqrt{3}$ = 7 ( divide both sides by $\sqrt{3}$ )

b = $\frac{7}{\sqrt{3} }$ × $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{3} }$ = $\frac{7\sqrt{3} }{3}$

Jacob's little brother thinks that he could design a better lion enclosure than the one he sees at the zoo. He makes a drawing o

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Length

1 inch = 25 feet

7 1/4 inches = x feet

1 * x = 25 * 7 1/4

x = 25 * 7.25

Length = 181.25 feet

The length is 181.25

hypotenuse length

The diagonal = 10 1/2 inches

The diagonal = 10.5 inches

hypotenuse = 10.5 * 25 = 262.5 feet

Width

L^2 + W^2 = Diagonal^2

181.25² + W² = 262.5²

32851.5625 + W² = 68906.25 Subtract 32851.5625 from both sides

W² = 68906.25 - 32851.5625

W^2 = 36054.6875 Take the square root of both sides

W = 189.88

Area

Area = L * W

Area = 181.25 * 189.88

Area = 34415.88 square feet.

Which ordered pair is the best estimate for the solution to the system

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The best estimate of the solution ordered pair from the graph is $(\frac{1}{2},0)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached graph to this question.

The graph of two straight lines are shown in the graph.

Now, the two straight lines intersect on the x-axis, so the solution ordered pairs should have y-value equals to zero.

But, there are two ordered pairs with y-value zero and they are $(\frac{1}{2},0)$ and $(\frac{1}{3},0)$ .

The best estimate of the solution ordered pairs from the graph is $(\frac{1}{2},0)$ .

So, this is the solution. (Answer)
