Suppose a line passes through (a, -11) and (7,13), and is parallel to the line
y =2x + 8, What is the value of a? Write the equation of the line

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a=19

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the equation is - 2 as it's parallel to the given line. Using two point slope form, (13-(-11))/(7-a)=-2. 24=-2(7-a), - 12=7-a, a=19

Answer 2

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 2x + 8 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2

Parallel lines have equal slopes

Calculate the slope between the 2 given points and equate to 2

Using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (a, - 11) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (7, 13)

m = [tex]\frac{13-(-11)}{7-a}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{13+11}{7-a}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{24}{7-a}[/tex] , then

[tex]\frac{24}{7-a}[/tex] = 2 ( multiply both sides by 7 - a )

2(7 - a) = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )

7 - a = 12 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

- a = 5 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

a = - 5

--------------------------------------------------

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (7, 13) into the partial equation

13 = 14 + c ⇒ c = 13 - 14 = - 1

y = 2x - 1 ← equation of parallel line

A helicopter hovers 500 feet
above a small island. The
figure shows that the angle of
depression from the helicopter
to point P is 48º. How far off
the coast, to the nearest foot, is
the island?
d ft
(Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

d = 450 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

First, we can find the angle in the triangle at the point of the helicopter, the angle opposite [tex]d[/tex]. Subtract 48° from 90°:

90-48=42

Now, given that this is a right triangle and we have an angle and the side adjacent the angle, we can solve for [tex]d[/tex] by using the tangent ratio:

[tex]tan\theta=\displaystyle \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Replace θ with 42°, "opposite" with [tex]d[/tex], and "adjacent" with 500 ft:

[tex]tan(42)=\displaystyle \frac{d}{500}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 500 to isolate [tex]d[/tex]:

[tex]500*tan(42)=d\\450=d[/tex]

Therefore, d = 450 ft when rounded to the nearest whole number.

I hope this helps!

find the probability of picking a red marble and a green marble when 2 marbles are picked (without replacement)from a bag containing 6 red and 6 green marbles.}

Answers

p = 6/11.

So we have a bag that contains 6 red marbles and 6 green marbles.

Then the total number of marbles that are in that bag is:

6 + 6  = 12

There are 12 marbles in the bag, and we assume that all marbles have the same probability of being randomly drawn.

Now we draw two marbles, we want to find the probability that one is red and the other is green.

The first marble that we draw does not matter, as we just want the second marble to be of the other color.

So, suppose we draw a green one in the first attempt.

Then in the second draw, we need to get a red one.

The probability of drawing a red one will be equal to the quotient between the red marbles in the bag (6) and the total number of marbles in the bag (12 - 1 = 11, because one green marble was drawn already)

Then the probability is:

p = 6/11.

Notice that would be the exact same case if the first marble was red.

Then we can conclude that the probability of getting two marbles of different colors is:

p = 6/11.

Americans eat 7 billion hot dogs between Memorial Day and Labor Day. If all these hot dogs were laid end to end they
would circle the earth 21.5 times. If the circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,860 miles, and one mile is
5,280 feet, find the length (in inches) of each hot dog. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth)

Answers

Answer:

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hot dogs eaten = 7 000 000 000

Circumference of the earth = 24 860 miles

21.5 times the circumference of the Earth = 21.5 x 24 860 miles

                                                = 534490 miles

But,

1 mile = 5280 feet

So that,

534490 miles = X

X = 5280 x 534490

   = 287707200 feet

Also,

1 feet = 12 inches

Then,

287707200 feet = Y

Y = 12 x 287707200

   = 3452486400 inches

Thus,

the length of each hot dog = [tex]\frac{3452486400}{7000000000}[/tex]

                     = 0.4932

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (–12, –8) and (–17, –16)?

Answers

Answer:

firstly find the gradient given by the equation

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

in this case x1 is -12,x2 is -17, y1 is -8 and y2 is-16

m=-16+8/-17+12

=-8/-5 or1.6

then use the equation

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+8=1.6(x+12)

y+8=1.6x+19.2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following equation:

3p + 2p + 8 - 3 = 15

Combine like terms. In essence, if two number have the same variable, then one can perform operations between their coefficients. If two number have no variables, then these two terms are also like terms. After combing like terms, simplify the expression.

3p + 2p + 8 - 3 = 15

5p + 8 - 3 = 15

5p + 5 = 15

Inverse operations,

5p + 5 = 15

5p = 10

One of the factors of x² + y² + 2xy - z² is ?​

Answers

Answer:

x + y + z.

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + y² + 2xy - z²

This is the difference between 2 squares so the factors are:

(x + y + z) and (a + y - z).

Answer: The factors are (x+y+z) and (x+y-z)

In other words, it factors to (x+y+z)*(x+y-z)

Notes:

In the third step, I used the rule (A+B)^2 = A^2+2AB+B^2. For this, A = x and B = y.In the last step, I used the difference of squares factoring rule A^2-B^2 = (A+B)(A-B). In this case, A = x+y and B = z.
