First, we must find the equation of the given line. The slope is "rise over run," or the change in y over the change in x from one point to another. 
The two points shown are (0,-1) and (3,1). In these points, y increases by 2. This means the change in y is 2. In these points, x increase by 3. This means the change in x is 3. Thus, the change in y over change in x is 2/3. This means that the slop of the given line is 2/3. 

In the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope, b is the y intercept. This is because the y intercept occurs when x is 0. If x is zero, mx is zero, so y=b. In other words, when x equals 0, y=b. This creates the point (0,b), which is the y-intercept. Since the y-intercept of the given line is -3, the equation for this line is: y=2/3x-3.

A line parallel to this will need to have the same slope. This allows us to eliminate choices C and D, which do not have the same slope. 

In order for the line to have an x-intercept of (-3,0), y must equal 0 when x is -3, since ordered pairs are (x,y). We can solve the equation using the information we know:
0=((2/3)(-3))+b
This is because we know the slope is 2/3, and that when x is -3, y is 0. 

Then, we can solve from there:
0=(-2)+b (just multiply 2/3 and -3)
2=b (add 2 to both sides)

Thus, the correct equation is: 
B) y=2/3x+2

The x values are the same for both green dots, so you are looking at a simplified version of the distance formula.

d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )

Since x1 = x2 = 5, the first set of brackets = (5 - 5) = 0

d = sqrt( y2 - y1)^2 )

d = y2 - y1

y2 = 5

y1 = - 1

d = 5 - - 1

d = 6    Answer

Nehal is a real estate developer, and he is designing a new neighborhood. The neighborhood will have four streets, each of which
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

240 houses

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of streets = 4

Length of each street = 3/4 miles long

Street is divided into lots with one house built per lot

1 mile = 5289 feets

3/4 miles = (3/4) * 5280 = 3960 feets

Hence, street is 3960 feets long

Since each lot must have at least 65 feet frontage along the street:

Number of lots per street :

Length of street / frontage length

3960 ft / 65 ft = 60.92

Hence, maximum number of lots per street = 60 lots per street

Maximum number of houses in New neighborhoods :

Number of lots per street × number of streets

= 60 × 4

= 240 houses

X=4 in the equation e^lnx = 4. Why is this so? Can you go through the steps/rules
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

e^(ln x) is just plain x

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions f(x) = e^x and g(x) = ln x are inverses of one another.  In other words, one "undoes" the other.

Thus, as the rule goes, e^(ln x) is just plain x.

Here, e^(ln x) = 4 simplifies to x = 4.
