Answer:


Step-by-step exp1. the equation y + 2 = -4(x - 1) needs to be in slope-intercept form. it makes it easier to solve. first, distributive property. y + 2 = -4x + 4 now you can subtract 2 from both sides to isolate y. new equation: y = -4x + 2 now you can graph this equation and the point (1, -3). we know the slope of the equation has to be the same so we can go up 4 and 1 to the left from (1, -3). this new point is (0, 1). so the answer is: y = -4x + 1


2. the graphs of the equations y = -2x + 3 and y = -2x + 7 are parallel.

i changed 2x + y = 7 to y = -2x + 7 by subtracting 2 from both sides. (standard form to slope-intercept form) then, i determined they were parallel by graphing them. you can visually see they're parallel to each other.


3. y + 1 = 2(x - 3) <- standard form. to transform this into slope-intercept form, you have to start by using the distributive property. so, do 2 times x and 2 times -3. new equation: y + 1 = 2x - 6 now you add 6 to both sides. new equation: y + 7 = 2x all you have to do now is get this in slope-intercept form. to do this, just subtract 7 from both sides. new equation: y = 2x - 7


4. the bike path is going to be parallel to main street. it is also going to pass through the park entrance (0, 4). the equation of main street is y = 2x - 3

we know that the park entrance is (0, 4) so the equation is going to look like this so far: y = x + 4 we also know the slope of the equation of main street is 2x and for the bike path to be parallel the slope needs to be the same. therefore, the equation of the line that represents the bike path is y = 2x + 4.


5. the statement: two lines with the same slope and different y-intercepts are perpendicular. is never true. this is because two lines with the same slope and different y-intercepts are parallel, not perpendicular.


i know this is a lot to read, but i like explaining things just to make sure you understand everything. the answers are in bold. i hope this helps!

Answer:

B. 1.-1,-2

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = x ^{3}  + 2 {x}^{2}  - x - 2

Substitute g(x)=0

0 =  {x}^{3}  + 2 {x}^{2}  - x - 2

Move the expression to the left

0 - {x}^{3}  - 2 {x}^{2}  + x + 2 = 0

Factor out -x^2 from the expression

-  {x}^{2}  \times (x + 2) + x + 2 = 0

Factor out (x+2) from the expression

(x + 2) \times ({x}^{2}  + 1) = 0

When the product of the factor equals 0, at least one factor is 0

x + 2 = 0

- {x}^{2}+ 1 > = 0

Solve for x

x =  - 2 \\ x =  - 1\\ x = 1

Can anyone help me with this problem ?
Elena L [17]
Come now !  I'm sure you could unravel it if you look at it and think about it
for a minute or two.

What's an angle bisector ?  It's a line that splits an angle exactly in half.
The two little angles on each side of it are EQUAL.  Each of them is exactly
half of the big angle.

So in this drawing,    (3/2 x - 6)    is equal to    (1/4 x + 4) .
Do you think you could find 'x' ?

3/2 x - 6  =  1/4 x + 4

Add 6 to each side of the equation:    3/2 x = 1/4 x + 10

Multiply each side by 4 :                     6 x = x + 40

Subtract 'x' from each side:                  5 x = 40

Divide each side by 5 :                          x = 8

Angle  CBD  is  1/4 x + 4 .  That's  1/4 (8) + 4 = 2 + 4 = <u>6 degrees </u>

katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. the peaches were on sale for 1.49 a pound. how much did lately spend on peaches
Leya [2.2K]
So Katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. And one pound of peaches cost $1.49. So that would mean that we would have to multiply the pounds of peaches she bought, with how much each pound costs. 5.68 × 1.49 = ?

Once you multiply these two decimals, you would get 8.4632. So she spent $8.4632 on 5.68 pounds of peaches. You would multiply the two decimals to find how much she spent in all.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 3 = -2/3(x - 3)

y - 3 = -2/3x + 2

y = -2/3x + 5
