Answer:

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to write the equation of a line parallel to y=-\frac{3}{2}x-1 and that passes through the point (4,6)

Parallel lines have the same slopes, but different y intercepts.

The slope of the equation y=-\frac{3}{2}x-1 is -\frac{3}{2}, since the equation is written in y=mx+b format (m is slope and b is y intercept), and -\frac{3}{2} is in the place where m is.

It's also the slope of the line parallel to it.

So we know the slope of the new line, let's write it down:

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+b

Let's find b, in order to complete the equation

Since the equation passes through the point (4, 6), we can use it to solve for b.

Substitute 4 as x and 6 as y into the equation:

6=-\frac{3}{2}(4)+b

Multiply

6=-6+b

Add 6 to both sides

12=b

Substitute 12 as b in the equation.

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+12

Hope this helps!

The revenue for a vehicle rental store is $5460. There was 208 cars and 52 vans rented. A van rents for $10 more than a car.
Darya [45]
208c + 52v = 5460
v = c + 10

where c = the price for a car rental and v = the price for a van rental.
To solve this system, use substitution; the second equation says v is equal to c + 10, so plug in "c + 10" for v in the first equation and solve for c:

208c + 52(c + 10) = 5460
208c + 52c + 520 = 5460
260c + 520 = 5460
260c = 4940
c = 19

Now that we have c, we can plug it in to the second equation to find v:

v = (19) + 10
v = 29

So, c = 19 and v = 29, meaning that
The cost of a car rental is $19 and the cost of a van rental is $29.

Two goals post are 8m apart. A footballer is 34m from one and 38m from the other. Within what angle must he kick the ball if he
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

  11.06°

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines can be used to find the angle. The sides adjacent to that angle are a=34, b=38, and the side opposite is c=8. Then the angle is found from ...

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)

  cos(C) = (a² +b² -c²)/(2ab)

  C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab))

  C = arccos((34² +38² -8²)/(2·34·38)) = arccos(317/323)

  C ≈ 11.06°

From the footballer's viewpoint, the goal posts are 11.06° apart.
