Answer:

2x + y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 9 => y = -2x + 9

Parallel lines have the same slope so m = -2

Given (-1,6)

y = mx + b

6 = -2(-1) + b

6 = 2 + b

b = 4

so y = -2x + 4 or 2x + y = 4

A farmer owns pigs, chickens, and ducks. When all her animals are together, she has 30 feathered animals, and the animals all to
tatiyna

To solve this problem, let us first assign some variables. Let us say that:

x = pigs

y = chickens

z = ducks

 

From the problem statement, we can formulate the following equations:

1. y + z = 30                                         ---> only chicken and ducks have feathers

2. 4 x + 2 y + 2 z = 120                      ---> pig has 4 feet, while chicken and duck has 2 each

3. 2 x + 2 y + 2 z = 90                        ---> each animal has 2 eyes only

 

Rewriting equation 1 in terms of y:

y = 30 – z

Plugging this in equation 2:

4 x + 2 (30 – z) + 2 z = 120

4 x + 60 – 2z + 2z = 120

4 x = 120 – 60

4 x = 60

x = 15

 

From the given choices, only one choice has 15 pigs. Therefore the answers are:

She has 15 pigs, 12 chickens, and 18 ducks.

Gwar [14]

draw a perpendicular line from the directrix passing through the focus, this will be the line of symmetry. The vertex(h, k) will be located on the line half way between the focus and directrix. The distance from the focus to the vertex is called the focal length, call it a. The then equation is (x - h)^2 = 4a(y - k) the equation can be manipulated to y = 1/4a(x - h)^2 + k hope it helps
