Line a passes through points (3, 6) and (1, 15). Line b is parallel to line a. What is the slope of line b?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

9/-2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope

(15-6)/(1-3)

9/-2

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]slope\ of \ line\ b = - \frac{9}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line a and b are parallel, the slope of a = slope of b.

therefore,

[tex]slope\ of \ line\ a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2-x_1} \ \ \ \ \ x_ 1 = 3 , \ y_ 1 = 6 \ , \ x_2 = 1 , \ y_2 = 15[/tex]

                    [tex]=\frac{15-6}{1-3}\\\\=\frac{9}{-2}\\\\= - \frac{9}{2}[/tex]

                   [tex]= slope\ of \ line \ b[/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of linear equations are , (i) y = 2x and (ii) y = x + 1 . We will find some coordinates and then we will plot its graph. The point where both Graphs will meet will be the solution of the graph .

• Finding coordinates of Equⁿ (i) :-

Step 1 : Put x = 0 :-

[tex]\tt y = 2x = 2(0) = \red{0}[/tex]

Step 2: Put x = 1 :-

[tex]\tt y = 2x = 2(1) = \red{2}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\begin{array}{c|c|c} \bf x & \tt 0 &\tt 1 \\ \bf y &\tt 0 & \tt 2 \end{array}}[/tex]

_________________________________

• Finding coordinates of equⁿ (ii) :-

Step 1 : Put x = 0 :-

[tex]\tt y = x + 1 = 1 + 0 = \red{1}[/tex]

How many groups of ¾ are there in 5

Answers

Answer:

6 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can divide 5 by 3/4 to get the answer. 5 divided by 3/4 is the same thing as 5 times 4/3 which is 20/3 and 20/3= 6 2/3.

Hope this helps :)

It is found that the number of groups of ¾ there in 5 would be; 20/3.

How can we interpret the division?

When 'a' is divided by 'b', then the result we get from the division is the part of 'a' that each one of 'b' items will get. Division, is interpreted as equally dividing the number that is being divided into total x parts; where x is the number of parts the given number is divided.

We need to find the number of groups of ¾ there in 5.

Thus,  We can divide 5 by 3/4 ;

5 divided by 3/4 is the same thing as 5 times 4/3 which will be;

5 /  ¾ = 5 x 4/3

20/3

Also, 20/3 = 6 2/3.

So we can conclude that the number of groups of ¾ there in 5 would be; 20/3.

To factor polynomials you have to use FOIL. Which stands for First, Outer, Inner, and Last. This means that you have to multiply the first numbers of each part by each other, the outer two between both parts, the inner two between both parts, and the last two of each part, respectively. Then, you would simplify. If you go and do this for each answer choice, the last one would be the only correct one.

Two similar solids have surface areas of 48cm and 108cm respectively.find the volume of the smaller solid if the bigger one has a volume of 162cm​

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the smaller solid is 72 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two similar solids have surface areas of 48cm and 108cm respectively, to find the volume of the smaller solid if the bigger one has a volume of 162cm the following calculation must be performed:

108 = 162

48 = X

48 x 162/108 = X

7776/108 = X

72 = X

Therefore, the volume of the smaller solid is 72 cm.

Answers

Answer:

24 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

128 ounces · 3 = 384 ounces

384/16 = 24 pints

Answer:

There are 16 ounces in a pint. 128 ounces will then be 128/16, or 8 pints. If you use three of the 128 ounces, or 8 pints, you can multiply the 8 by 3, giving 24 pints.

Step-by-step explanation:

What are the solutions of the equation (x - 3)2 + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0? Use u substitution to solve.
Ox= -5 and x = 1
O x= -1 and x = 5
O x= -1 and x = -7
Ox= 1 and x = 7

Answers

Given:

The equation is:

[tex](x-3)^2+2(x-3)-8=0[/tex]

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

[tex](x-3)^2+2(x-3)-8=0[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x-3=u[/tex].

[tex]u^2+2u-8=0[/tex]

Splitting the middle term, we get

[tex]u^2+4u-2u-8=0[/tex]

[tex]u(u+4)-2(u+4)=0[/tex]

[tex](u-2)(u+4)=0[/tex]

Using zero product property, we get

[tex]u-2=0\text{ and }u+4=0[/tex]

[tex]u=2\text{ and }u=-4[/tex]

Now, substitute [tex]u=x-3[/tex].

[tex]x-3=2\text{ and }x-3=-4[/tex]

[tex]x=2+3\text{ and }x=-4+3[/tex]

[tex]x=5\text{ and }x=-1[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is b.

The solutions to the equation are x = -1 and x = 5. The correct option is second option x = -1 and x = 5.

Quadratic equation

From the question, we are to determine the solution of the given equation

(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0

First, we will expand the equation and clear the brackets

[tex](x - 3)^{2} + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0[/tex]

[tex](x - 3)(x - 3) + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} -6x + 9 +2x - 6 - 8 = 0[/tex]

Simplifying

[tex]x^{2} -4x - 5 = 0[/tex]

Factorizing, we get

[tex]x^{2} -5x +x- 5 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x(x-5)+1(x- 5) = 0[/tex]

[tex](x+1)(x-5)= 0[/tex]

Then,

x + 1 = 0 or x - 5 = 0

x = -1 or x = 5

Hence, the solutions to the equation are x = -1 and x = 5. The correct option is second option x = -1 and x = 5.
