Which is an equation of the line that has a slope of 1/2 and passes through the point (3, -1)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y + 1 = (1/2)(x - 3) - point-slope form

OR

y = (1/2)x - 5/2 - slope-intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a slope and point, use point-slope form to write the equation for the line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

(x1, y1) is the point given and m is the slope.

y - (-1) = (1/2)(x - 3)

y + 1 = (1/2)(x - 3)

If you need to rewrite in slope intercept form, you can do so by distributing the 1/2 to the x - 3 and subtracting 1 from both sides:

y + 1 = (1/2)x - 3/2

y = (1/2)x - 5/2

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf y= \frac {1}{2}x - \frac {5}{2}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line can be found using the point-slope formula.

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is the point the line passes through. For this line, the slope is 1/2 and the point is (3, -1). Therefore,

[tex]m= \frac {1}{2} \\x_1= 3 \\y_1= -1[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]y--1= \frac {1}{2}(x-3)[/tex]

[tex]y+1= \frac {1}{2}(x-3)[/tex]

The equation can be left like this, or put into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b).

First, distribute the 1/2. Multiply each term inside the parentheses by 1/2.

[tex]y+1= \frac {1}{2}x - \frac {3}{2}[/tex]

Next, subtract 1 from both sides of the equation.

[tex]y+1-1= \frac {1}{2}x - \frac {3}{2}-1[/tex]

[tex]y= \frac {1}{2}x - \frac {5}{2}[/tex]

"The sum of 4 and a number, divided by 2 is less than -6."​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{4+n}{2} < -6[/tex], n < -16

Step-by-step explanation:

To write this into an inequality you need to recognize keywords. The first keyword is "sum" this means the two numbers must be added; so the first part of the inequality is 4+n. Then, it says the sum is "divided by" 2; this means both numbers must be put over two like [tex]\frac{4+n}{2}[/tex]. Finally, this is "less than" negative. Therefore, this must be an inequality with a sign opening towards -6. So the final answer is [tex]\frac{4+n}{2} < -6[/tex].

To solve the inequality isolate the variable. Multiply both sides by 2, so the new inequality is [tex]4+n<-12[/tex]. Next, subtract 4 from both sides. The answer is n < -16.

A storage box in the garage is 3 feet tall, 4 feet long and has a volume of 9 cubic feet. How many square feet is the area of the base of the box? ​

Answers

Answer:

3 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the width of the storage box using the given volume

V = L * W * H

9 = 4 * W * 3

9 = 12 * W

9/12 = W

W = 3/4 or .75

then with that to find the are of the base multiply the length and the width

a = l * w

a = 4 * 3/4

a = 3

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2x−4=2(x−2)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x−4=2(x−2)

2x+−4=(2)(x)+(2)(−2)(Distribute)

2x+−4=2x+−4

2x−4=2x−4

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

2x−4−2x=2x−4−2x

−4=−4

Step 3: Add 4 to both sides.

−4+4=−4+4

Prove that the figure is a parallelogram. If so, classify the parallelogram. Be specific and justify your answer.

What is the perimeter and area? ​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is a parallelogram the opposite sides will a have the same slope.

Using the diagram  we see from the coordinates of A and B:

Slope of AB = (5 - -1)/(-1 - -5)

= 6/4

= 3/2.

In the same way

slope of CD = (2 - -4) / (1 - -3)

= 3/2.

So AB and  CD can be shown to be parallel.

Similarly the lines BC and AD are parallel.

So the figure is a parallelogram

Finding the perimeter (counting the units between the points):

Perimeter = 2AB + 2BC

By Pythagoras:

AB =   sqrt (6^2 + 4^2) = sqrt 52

BC = sqrt (3^2 + 2^2) = sqrt 13

So Perimeter = 2sqrt52 + 2sqrt13

= 4sqrt13 + 2 sqrt13

= 6sqrt13

or 21.63 unit^2 to 2 decimal places.

Area = sqrt52 * perpendicular distance between the lines AB and CD.

The titration procedure you have just performed is similar to what is carried out by water-quality workers throughout the world. They use a kit to perform titration on location instead of in a laboratory. In real-life situations, workers collect water samples in a lake or stream. In lakes and streams calcium carbonate (CaCO3) causes alkalinity. Calcium carbonate acts as a buffer, a substance that serves to resist small changes in acidity or alkalinity in a solution. When acid rain enters lake water, it can be neutralized by the bases present and thus the lake does not become too acidic. Since the key ion is the hydroxide ion, the nature of the location doesnt matter in this case. All over the world, right now, pollution workers are measuring calcium carbonate in lakes and streams.If a worker studied two lakes and Lake X had a greater ppm (concentration in parts per million) of calcium carbonate than Lake Z, and both lakes are the exact same size, which of the two lakes would be able to withstand a greater amount of rain that is acidic?
