1. What is an equation of a line, in point-slope form, that passes through (1,-7) and has a slope of -2/3?
Point Slope form y − y1 = m(x − x1)
Y1: -7 x1:1 slope :-2/3
Y-(-7)=-2/3(x-1)
Y+7=-2/3(x-1)
2. What is the equation of a line, in point-slope form, that passes through (-2,-6) and had a slope of 1/3?
Y-(-6)=1/3(x-(-2))
Y+6=1/3(x+2)
3.What is an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the points (4,5) and (-3,-1)
SlopeM: =change in y/change in x
M= -1-5/-3-4
M= -6/-7
M=6/7
So now slope:6/7, point (4,5)
Y-y1=m(x-x1)
Equation in point slope
Y-5=6/7(x-4)
Answer:
(a) x = -2y
(c) 3x - 2y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
You can tell if an equation is a direct variation equation if it can be written in the format y = kx.
Note that there is no addition and subtraction in this equation.
Let's put these equations in the form y = kx.
(a) x = -2y
- y = x/-2 → y = -1/2x
- This is equivalent to multiplying x by -1/2, so this is an example of direct variation.
(b) x + 2y = 12
- 2y = 12 - x
- y = 6 - 1/2x
- This is not in the form y = kx since we are adding 6 to -1/2x. Therefore, this is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
(c) 3x - 2y = 0
- -2y = -3x
- y = 3/2x
- This follows the format of y = kx, so it is an example of direct variation.
(d) 5x² + y = 0
- y = -5x²
- This is not in the form of y = kx, so it is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
(e) y = 0.3x + 1.6
- 1.6 is being added to 0.3x, so it is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
(f) y - 2 = x
- y = x + 2
- 2 is being added to x, so it is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
The following equations are examples of direct variation:

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Triangle A is attached in the image below.
The base of triangle A is 3 units and its height is 3 units. The area of a triangle is given as:
Area = (1/2) × base × height
Area of triangle A = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 3 × 3 = 4.5 unit²
Area of the scaled copy = 72 unit²
Ratio of area = Area of the scaled copy / Area of triangle A = 72 unit² / 4.5 unit² = 16
Hence the scaled copy area is 16 times larger than that of triangle A.
b) For the scaled copy:
Area of the scaled copy = (1/2) × base × height = 72 unit²
base × height = 144
Since the base and height are equal
base² = 144
base = 12, also height = 12
Base of scaled copy = 12 = 4 × base of triangle A
Therefore the scale factor used is 4
