Find the equation of the line that passes through (1, -1) and is parallel to

Mathematics

daser333 [38]2 years ago
8 0

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

2x+y-3=0\implies y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-2} x+3 \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line with a slope of -2 and that passes through (1 , -1)

(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad \qquad \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-1)}=\stackrel{m}{-2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{1}) \\\\\\ y+1=-2x+2\implies y=-2x+1

How to divide fractions
Anna [14]

First leave the first fraction alone.

Then turn the division sign into a multiplication sign.

Flip the second fraction over ( find its reciprocal ).

Multiply the numerators of the two fractions together. This result will be the numerator ( the top part ) of your answer.

Multiply the denominators of the two fractions together. The result will be the denominator ( the bottom part ) of your answer.

Then simplify your fraction by reducing it to the simplest terms.

A rectangle has a length that is three feet more than twice it’s width. If the area of the rectangle is 90 square feet, then alg
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the length of the rectangle be 'L'

and, width of the rectangle be 'W'

length=2*Width+3

L=(2W+3) feet\\\\

Area of the rectangle= 90 square feet

Area of a rectangle = Length*Width

90=(2W+3)*W\\\\2W^2+3W=90\\\\2W^2+3W-90=0\\\\

Using Factorization Method to solve quadratic equation:

2W^2-12W+15W-90=0

Taking common from the equation:

2W(W-12)+15(W-12)=90\\\\(W-12)(2W+15)=0\\\\W-12=0\\\\W=12 feet

OR

2W+15=0\\\\2W=-15\\\\W=-7.5 feet

The Width cannot be negative, therefore Width(W)=12 feet

Length=2*Width+3\\\\=(12*2)+3\\\\=24+3\\\\=27 feet

Length=27feet\\Width=12 feet

A. 4,-4<br> B. 2,-5<br> C.0,6<br> D.-2,5<br> Which would it be?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

If we insert the original coordinates into the problem, we will find the answer.

(2+2, 1-5)

so, once solved

(4, -4)

remember, adding to X means moving the point right, subtracting to X means moving left.

Adding to Y means moving the point up, subtracting to Y means moving down.
