Mathematics

Answer:

y = - x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

  • We can use the below formula to find the equation of a line.

y = m x + c

Here,

m ⇒ slope

c ⇒ y - intercept

  • We know that , if two lines are parallel to each other, it means that the slopes of two lines are also equal.
  • Therefore, according to the question we have to find the y - intercept in order to write the equation of the line.
  • For that, you can use the given coordinate of the new line.
  • <em>Also, as the two lines are parallel, the slope of the new line is (-1 ).</em>

Let us solve now.

( -6 , 8 ) ⇒ ( x , y )

y = m x + c

8 = -1 × -6 + c

8 = 6 + c

8 - 6 = c

2 = c

  • And now let us write the equation of the line.

y = m x + c

y = - x + 2

Hope this helps you :-)

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)

Answer:

y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same slope but different

y-intercepts.

So the slope of the parallel line is -x

We can input the x and y points given to solve for the new y-intercept

  • y = -x + b
  • 8 = -(-6) + b
  • 8 = 6 + b
  • b = 2

The new line is y = -x + 2. Since these two lines are the same, they are coinciding lines.

In an ore, 9.8% of its total weight is metal. How many pounds of metal are in 1,950 lb of ore?
Fudgin [204]

Answer

Find out the  how many pounds of metal are in 1,950 lb of ore .

To proof

let us assume that the pounds of metal are in 1,950 lb of ore be x .

As given

In an ore, 9.8% of its total weight is metal.

ore weight = 1,950 lb

9.8% is written in the decimal form

= \frac{9.8}{100}

= 0.098

Than the equation becomes

x = 0.098 × 1950

x = 191.1 pounds

Therefore the 191.1 pounds of metal are in 1,950 lb of ore .

Hence proved

4) 20 + (30+7) +2 = (20 + 30) +7+2<br> Is it cummunitive associtive or Distributive
Komok [63]

Answer:

I believe it is distributive because you are finding the products. Yes, the numbers are mixed up but the parenthesis often involve distributive property.

The radius of the circle on a basketball court is 6 feet. What are the approximate circumference and area of the circle?
AlexFokin [52]
Circumference formula - 2pi(r)
area formula - pi(r)^2
in both of the formulas r is the radius so

to find circumstance: 2(pi)(6) = 25.68 feet

to find area: pi(6)^2 = 113.04 feet
