The Equation of a Line
The slope-intercept form of a line can be written as:
y = mx + b
Where m is the slope of the graph of the line and b is the y-intercept.
In the specific case where the line passes through the origin (0,0), we can find the value of b by substituting x=0 and y=0:
0 = m(0) + b
Solving for b:
b = 0.
Thus, the equation of the line reduces to:
y = mx
We only need to find the value of the slope.
That is where we need the second data. Our line is perpendicular to the line of equation 4x + 3y = 6.
Solving for y:
[tex]y=-\frac{4}{3}x+2[/tex]The slope of the second line is -4/3.
We must recall that if two lines of slopes m1 and m2 are perpendicular, then:
[tex]m_1\cdot m_2=-1[/tex]Substituting the value of m1 and solving for m2:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -\frac{4}{3}\cdot m_2=-1 \\ m_2=\frac{3}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]The slope of our line is 3/4 and the required equation is:
[tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x[/tex]From this last equation, we need to find the general form of the line.
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4:
4y = 3x
Subtract 3x on both sides:
4y - 3x = 0
Reorder:
-3x + 4y = 0
Suppose that a regression line for some data transformed with logarithmspredicts that when x equals 4, log(y) will equal 2.671. What does theregression line predict y will equal when x equals 4?
Explanation:
The information that we have is that when the value of x is 4
[tex]x=4[/tex]The logarithm of y is 2.671
[tex]log(y)=2.671[/tex]The question is:
What does the regression line predict y will equal when x =4?
That means we need to solve for y in
[tex]log(y)=2.671[/tex]To find the predicted y-value.
To solve for y, we make 10 the base of the two sides of the equation as shown in the following expression:
[tex]10^{log(y)}=10^{2.671}[/tex]Due to the properties of logarithms, on the left side, we will be left only with 'y'
[tex]y=10^{2.671}[/tex]And finally, solving the operations on the right-hand side, the result is:
[tex]y=468.813[/tex]Answer:
[tex]y=468.813[/tex]In the diagram below, if the measure of < C = 45 °, and side AB = 6.8, then side BC = _____.
Solution
Since
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan45=\frac{6.8}{BC} \\ \\ \Rightarrow BC=\frac{6.8}{\tan45}=6.8\text{ since}\tan45=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]The correct option is A.
what is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 18 x - 3 y equals -45
The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.
Let's solve for "y" from the equation of the line given in the exercise, in order to express it in Slope-Intercept form:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 18x-3y=-45 \\ -3y=-18x-45 \\ y=\frac{-18x-45}{-3} \\ y=6x+15 \end{gathered}[/tex]You can identify that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=6 \\ b=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]By definition, the slopes of parallel lines are equal. Therefore, the slope of the line parallel to line given in the exercise, is:
[tex]m=6[/tex]4(3c+3)-3c+1=3(3c+5)-2
The given equation is,
[tex]4(3c+3)-3c+1=3(3c+5)-2[/tex]The above equation can be simplified as follow,

Issac says that T' will be located at (4,20)Isabella says that T' will be located at (4,12(who is correct and why?
In the given triangle :
The coordinate of T is ( 2, 10 )
Triangle TUV will be dilated by a scale factor of 2
Thus, multiply the coordinates of TUV by 2
T' = 2 x T
T' = 2 x ( 2, 10 )
T' = ( 2x2, 2x10)
T' = ( 4, 20 )
So, T' will be located at ( 4, 20 )

What is a rectangular prism?A rectangular prism is a six faced solid hexahedron.
The given dimension of the rectangular prism are:
Length = 6 cm
Height = 3 cm
Width = 2 cm
The side length of the cube = 3cm
The surface area of the rectangular prism is therefore:
[tex]A_p[/tex] = 6 × 3 × 2 + 6 × 2 × 2 + 3 × 2 × 2 = 72
The surface area of the rectangular prism is 72 cm²
The surface area of the cube: [tex]A_c[/tex] = 6 × 3² = 54
The surface area of the cube, [tex]A_c[/tex] = 54 cm²
The amount by which area of the rectangular prism is greater than the area of the cube is therefore: [tex]A_p[/tex] - [tex]A_c[/tex] = 72 cm² - 54 cm² = 18 cm²

We will have the following:
First, we determine the monthly rate:

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=P\frac{(1+r_m)^n}{(1+r_m)^n-1} \\ \\ \Rightarrow A=60000\frac{(1+(7/1200))^{^{240}}}{(1+(7/1200))^{240}-1}\Rightarrow A\approx465.18 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the monthly payment will be approximately $465.18.
The total amount paid will be:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1.36x}{1.36}=\frac{17}{1.36} \\ x=\frac{25}{2}=12.5 \\ \therefore x=12.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, 17 is 12.5% of 136.

Compute the sums below. (Assume that the terms in the first sum are consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.) 9 + 4 + (-1) + ... + (-536)
SOLUTION
The terms below make an A.P. Now we are told to find the sum of the AP.
Sum of an AP is given by
[tex]S\text{ = }\frac{n}{2}\lbrack2a\text{ + (n-1)d\rbrack}[/tex]Where S = sum of the AP, a = first term = 9, d = -5, n= ?
So we have to find n first before we can find the sum. The nth term which is the last term = -536. So we will use it to find the number of terms "n"
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{From T}_{n\text{ }}=\text{ a +(n-1)d where T}_{n\text{ }}=\text{ -536} \\ -536\text{ = 9+(n-1)-5} \\ -536\text{ = 9-5n+5} \\ -536\text{ = 14-5n} \\ -5n\text{ = -536-14} \\ -5n\text{ = -550} \\ n\text{ = 110} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now let's find the sum
[tex]\begin{gathered} S\text{ = }\frac{n}{2}\lbrack2a\text{ + (n-1)d\rbrack} \\ S\text{ = }\frac{110}{2}\lbrack2\times9\text{ + (110-1)-5\rbrack} \\ S\text{ = 55\lbrack{}18+(119)-5\rbrack} \\ S\text{ = 55\lbrack{}18 - 595\rbrack} \\ S\text{ = 55}\times-577 \\ S\text{ = -31735} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the sum = -31735

Given:
Cut a 10-foot (ft.) long piece of wood into two pieces so that one piece is 2 ft longer than the other.
Required:
Which of the following equations depicts the given situation?
Explanation:
Let 10 feet long piece of wood cut into two pieces of length x(smaller piece) and
x+2 larger piece.
So, the equation will be
x + x + 2 =10
2x + 2=10
Answer:
Option C is correct.
