Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

move x to the right making the equation 5y=-9x-1 then divide both sides by 5 to get y= -9/5x-1/5. the slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of the slope from the og eq. so the slope of the new line is 5/9x and the y-intercept stays the same so the equation should be y=5/9x-1/5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model a line with slope-intercept form:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

where [tex]m[/tex] is the slope and [tex]b[/tex] is the Y-intercept.

We know that the new line is parallel to the given line, so the two lines have the same slope, or [tex]m = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]:

[tex]y = \frac{3}{2}x + b[/tex]

To determine [tex]b[/tex], we just need to plug in the given point that the line passes through, [tex](-2, 3)[/tex]:

[tex]y = \frac{3}{2}x + b[/tex]

[tex](3) = \frac{3}{2}(-2) + b[/tex]

[tex]3 = -3 + b[/tex]

[tex]b = 6[/tex]

This gives us the following equation:

[tex]y = \frac{3}{2}x + 6[/tex]

The equation of the line is y = (3/2)x + 6.

The equation of a line is given by:

y = mx + c

where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.

Example:

The slope of the line y = 2x + 3 is 2.

The slope of a line that passes through (1, 2) and (2, 3) is 1.

We have,

The equation of the line passes through the point (-2,3).

y = m(1)x + c

The equation of the line is parallel to the line whose equation is y=3/2x-4.

​This means,

y = (3/2)x - 4

This is in the form of y = m(2)x + c

m(2) = (3/2)

So,

m(1) = m(2)

Now,

(-2, 3) = (x, y)

y = m(1)x + c

3 = (3/2) x (-2) + c

3 = -3 + c

c = 3 + 3

c = 6

Now,

y = m(1)x + c

y = (3/2)x + 6

Thus,

The equation of the line is y = (3/2)x + 6.

Answer: [tex]2,412.74\ cm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use the following formula for calculate the Total surface area of a solid hemisphere:

[tex]SA_{total}=3\pi r^2[/tex]

Where "r" is the radius.

 Since you cut a styrofoam ball in half, the total surface areas are equal.

The exercise gives you the diameter. Observe in the figure that this is:

[tex]d=32\ cm[/tex]

Since the radius is half the diameter, you know that:

[tex]r=\frac{d}{2}\\\\r=\frac{32\ cm}{2}\\\\r=16\ cm[/tex]

Finally, you can substitute the radius into the formula:

 [tex]SA_{total}=3\pi (16\ cm)^2=2,412.74\ cm^2[/tex] (Of each half of the styrofoam ball)

You can use the fact that along with the surface area of hemisphere, you need to add the surface area of the circle that's on the top of each hemisphere.(hemisphere means half of sphere)

The surface area of each half of the styrofoam ball is [tex]3\pi r^2 \: \rm unit^2[/tex]

Surface area of sphere = [tex]4 \pi r^2[/tex] sq. units where r is radius of sphere.

Since hemisphere is half of the sphere, thus,

Surface area of hemisphere = [tex]2\pi r^2[/tex] sq. units.

Since the foam ball is not hollow, if we slice it in half, each of the half piece is having surface = outer half sphere's surface + that circle which is formed due to slicing the ball

Thus, surface area of each half of the Styrofoam ball is calculated as

Surface area = Surface area of hemisphere + area of circle

Let the ball had radius r, then we have the needed surface area as:

[tex]S = 2\pi r^2 + \pi r^2 = 3\pi r^2 \: \rm unit^2[/tex]

S is surface area of each half of the styrofoam ball.

Finally, you must solve for "x".

Therefore, you get:

Answer:

3875 feet above sea level

Answer:

[tex]3875[/tex]  [tex]feet[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We first start at 7,000 feet above sea level, we then descend 4,500 feet closer to the sea level, therefore:

[tex]7,000 - 4,500[/tex]

[tex]==> 2,500[/tex]

Then we go up 1,375 feet farther from the sea level, so:

[tex]2,500 + 1,375[/tex]

[tex]==> 3,875[/tex]

The cost of a taxi ride can be calculated using the equation c = 1.75 + (m - 1/8) * 8 * 0.30, where c represents the total cost and m represents the total miles driven. Solving this equation for m when the total cost is $7.75 would yield the number of miles driven.

The subject of this question is the creation of an equation to calculate the cost of a taxi ride. According to the question, a taxi charges $1.75 for the first 1/8 mile and $0.30 for each additional 1/8 mile. First, we need to convert miles to 1/8 miles, since the pricing is based on this fraction. We know that each full mile is equal to 8 fractions of 1/8 mile. Therefore, to convert miles to 1/8 miles, we multiply the number of miles by 8.

Given this pricing structure, the costs associated with additional miles driven beyond the first 1/8 mile (which are already accounted for by the initial $1.75), can be represented by (m-1/8)*8*0.30. Here, (m-1/8) represents the additional miles traveled beyond the first 1/8 mile, and multiplying this by 8 converts these miles into 1/8 miles.

The total cost, c, can thus be represented by the equation c = 1.75 + (m - 1/8) * 8 * 0.30. If a ride cost $7.75, we can substitute this cost into the equation and solve for m to find the number of miles driven. This would give us the equation: 7.75 = 1.75 + (m - 1/8) * 8 * 0.30.

Answer:

Final answer:

The equation of a line with a slope of 1 that passes through the point (2,5) in slope-intercept form is y = x + 3.

Explanation:

To write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), you need to know the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b). Since the slope is given as 1 and the line passes through the point (2,5), we can use the point-slope formula to find the y-intercept.

The point-slope formula is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is the point the line passes through. Plugging in the values we have:

y - 5 = 1(x - 2) → y - 5 = x - 2 → y = x + 3

So, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = x + 3.

Answer:

The given equation is y=-x+3.

The equation for the table is y=-x-3.

The slopes are the same (both are -1) but the y-intercepts are different (the given equation has y-intercept 3 while the table has y-intercept -3). The two lines are parallel.

Also, if you plug a point from the table into the equation, the point renders the equation false.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use your equation and plug in your points from the table.

So let's see if (-4,1) is a point on the graph of the line of y=-x+3.

1=-(-4)+3

1=4+3

1=7 is not true so the point isn't on the graph of the line y=-x+3.

Let's see if we can find the appropriate equation for the points in the table.

I'm going to first see if there is a constant slope.

In the first two points, the y's are going down by 2 while the second are going up by two.

So the slope of line going through the first two points is -2/2=-1.

So looking at the middle points...the y's are going down by 3 while the x's are going up by 3. So the slope is still retaining -1 since -3/3=-1.

Finally, lets see if the slope still remains the same for the last two points. The y's are going down by 2 while x's are going up by 2. So the set of points do represent a line since the points follow a constant slope per pair of points.

Slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We know m is -1 so our line is of the form

y=-x+b.

To find b I will use a point from the table such as (-4,1).

1=-(-4)+b

1=4+b

Subtract 4 on both sides:

1-4=b

-3=b

So the equation for the line in the table is

y=-x-3.

So the two are both lines with the same slope but different y-intercept. The lines are therefore parallel.

Answer:

The given equation is y=-x+3.

The equation for the table is y=-x-3.

The slopes are the same (both are -1) but the y-intercepts are different (the given equation has y-intercept 3 while the table has y-intercept -3). The two lines are parallel.

Also, if you plug a point from the table into the equation, the point renders the equation false.

You can use your equation and plug in your points from the table.

So let's see if (-4,1) is a point on the graph of the line of y=-x+3.

1=-(-4)+3

1=4+3

1=7 is not true so the point isn't on the graph of the line y=-x+3.

Let's see if we can find the appropriate equation for the points in the table.

Slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We know m is -1 so our line is of the form

y=-x+b.

To find b I will use a point from the table such as (-4,1).

1=-(-4)+b

1=4+b

Subtract 4 on both sides:

1-4=b

-3=b

So the equation for the line in the table is

y=-x-3.

So the two are both lines with the same slope but different y-intercept. The lines are therefore parallel.

The slope of the given line is:

                        [tex]\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]

We know that if a line is represented in the slope intercept form i.e.

             [tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

then m represents the slope of the line and c represents the y-intercept of the line.

Here we are given a equation of a line as follows:

                [tex]y=\dfrac{4}{5}x-3[/tex]

i.e. on comparing the equation with  the slope-intercept form of the line we have the slope  of the line is:

             [tex]m=\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]

Final answer:

The slope of the equation y=4/5x-3 is 4/5, which represents the consistent rise over run for the line.

Explanation:

The slope of the line is represented by the equation [tex]y = \frac{4}{5}x - 3 is \frac{4}{5}.[/tex] In the standard form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, and the coefficient of x represents the slope of the line.

Therefore, by comparing the given equation to the standard form, the number 4/5 in front of x is the slope of the line. The slope indicates a rise of 4 units on the vertical axis for every increase of 5 units on the horizontal axis. The slope of a line remains constant along the entire length of the line.

Answer:

A. [tex]R=1,500+6x,\ x\le 800[/tex]

B. 584

Step-by-step explanation:

A band is performing at an auditorium for a fee of $1500.

In addition to this fee, the band receives 30% of each $20 ticket sold. Let x be the number of tickets sold, then these x tickets cost $20x. Calculate 30% of 20x:

[tex]20x\cdot 0.3=6x[/tex]

A. The total cost is

[tex]R=1,500+6x[/tex]

The maximum capacity of the auditorium is 800 people, so x≤800.

B. The band needs $5,000 for new equipment so

[tex]1,500x+6x\ge 5,000\\ \\6x\ge 3,500\\ \\x\ge \dfrac{3500}{6}\\ \\x\ge 583.333...[/tex]

So, it is enough 584 tickets to be sold.

The band's revenue equation is R = 1500 + 0.30 * 20 * x. To earn $5000 for new equipment, the band needs to sell at least 584 tickets, considering their fixed fee and the additional revenue from ticket sales.

Calculating Revenue for a Band's Performance

The band's total revenue (R) when x tickets are sold can be calculated using the equation: R = 1500 + 0.30 *20* x. This equation includes their fixed fee of $1500 plus the variable amount obtained from ticket sales, which is 30% of the ticket price ($20). For every ticket sold, the band adds $6 (30% of $20) to their revenue.

For the band to afford new equipment costing $5000, we need to determine how many tickets need to be sold. The equation becomes:

R = 1500 + 0.30 * 20 * x

$5000 = 1500 + 6 * x

$5000 - 1500 = 6 * x

$3500 = 6x

x = $3500 / 6

x = 583.33

Since the band cannot sell a fraction of a ticket, they would need to sell at least 584 tickets to meet their goal of $5000.

Answer:

1.  0.8 cm

2.  1.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

The scale for 2nd map is 1 cm to 50 km, that means "1 cm on map" is "50 km in real life".

We already know distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati is 40 km, which is less than 50, so we know the distance on map would be less than 1 cm.

So we set up ratio and figure out (let x be distance on map from Cleveland to Cincinnati):

[tex]\frac{1}{50}=\frac{x}{40}\\50x=40\\x=\frac{40}{50}\\x=0.8[/tex]

Hene, 0.8 centimeters would be the distance in 2nd map

2.

A scale of 1:50 means 1 cm equal 50 cm

So, 0.8m would be

0.8 * 100 = 80 cm

Hence, 80 cm would be represented by 80/50 on the map, that is:

[tex]\frac{80}{50}=1.6[/tex]

That is 1.6 centimeters
