Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel, that means their slopes are equal.

And we also know that the line must pass through (-6,7)

And with our point-slope equation, we get the equation:

y-7 = -\frac{5}{2} (x+6)

y - 7 = -\frac{5}{2} x-15\\y= -\frac{5}{2} x-8<------ Answer

Hope that helps!

Answer:

y=-\frac{5}{2}x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope therefore...

y=-\frac{5}{2}x+b

Then, substitute the given points into the equation to solve for b (y-intercept):

7=-\frac{5}{2}(-6)+b\\7=\frac{30}{2}+b\\7=15+b\\\text{Subtract 15 from both sides}\\b=-8

Therefore the equation is:

y=-\frac{5}{2}x-8

If mRS=x then write an equation that could be used to solve for x and find the value of x
Fed [463]

Answer:

a) x = 30°

b) mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°

Question:

The complete question as found on Chegg website:

In the diagram below, secants PT and PU have been drawn from exterior point P such that the four arcs

intercepted have the following ratio of measurements:

mRS : mST :MTU : mUR=1:4:4:3

(a) If mRS = x, then write an equation that could be used to solve for x

and find the value of x.

(b) State the measure of each of the four arcs.

mRS =

mST =

MTU

MUR =

Step-by-step explanation:

Find attached the diagram related to the question

mRS : mST : mTU : mUR = 1:4:4:3

Since mRS = x

Writing the ratios of the measure of angle in terms of mRS:

mST = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mTU = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mUR= 3× mRS = 3×x = 3x

The sum of measure the 4 measures of arc = 360° (sum of angle in a circle)

mRS + mST + mTU + mUR = 360°

x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360

12x = 360

x = 360/12

x = 30°

b) The measure of angle

mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°

Find the measurement indicated in the parallelogram​
Daniel [21]

Answer:

m(∠W) = 114°

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of a parallelogram,

"Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal in measure"

By this property,

m(∠W) = m(∠U)

9x + 15 = 4 + 10x

15 - 4 = 10x - 9x

x = 11

Therefore, m(∠W) = 9x + 15

                              = 9(11) + 15

                              = 99 + 15

                              = 114°

Measure of angle W is 114°.

Is the statement true or false? If false, give a counterexample.
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

D. false; if a = 1, b = 2, and c = 3, then 1(2 + 3) ≠ 1(2) + 2(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A is false, because the a is being distributed/ being multiplied to all terms inside the parenthesis, and not the term b.

B is also false. There is no indicated negative signs.

C is also false because 1(1 + 1) is EQUAL to 1(1) + 1(1)

D is true.

At this point this one decides my grade
Tresset [83]

Answer:

A = 16π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

We require to find the radius r

Given circumference C = 8π , then

2πr = 8π ( divide both sides by 2π )

r = 4 , then

A = πr² = π × 4² = 16π cm²
