Check whether (19/9, 15/3) is
a solution of the equation 3a + b = 8 or
not where (a,b) is co-ordinate point.​

Answers

Answer:

No, it is not a solution to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

If [tex]( \frac{19}{9} , \frac{15}{3} )[/tex] is a solution of the equation, the left-hand side (LHS) of the equation would equal to the right-hand side (RHS) of the equation.

3a +b= 8

When a= [tex] \frac{19}{9} [/tex], b= [tex] \frac{15}{3} [/tex],

LHS

= [tex]3( \frac{19}{9} ) + \frac{15}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{19}{3} + \frac{15}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{34}{3} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{34}{3} ≠8[/tex]

Since the left-hand side is not equal to the right-hand side of the equation, [tex]( \frac{19}{9} , \frac{15}{3} )[/tex] is not a solution of the equation.

Given equation is 3a+b = 8

Given point = (19/9,15/3)

Put a = 19/9 and b = 15/3 in LHS of the given equation then

⇛ 3(19/9)+(15/3)

⇛(19/3)+(15/3)

⇛ (19+15)/3

⇛ 34/3 ≠ 0

LHS ≠ RHS

Given point not satisfies the given equation

Therefore, it is not the solution of the given point.

Given that two terms of an arithmetic sequence are u5 = -3.7 and u15 = -52.3, find the value of the 19th term. ​

Answers

Answer:

  a19 = -71.74

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term of an arithmetic sequence with first term a1 and common difference d is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

The given 5th and 15th terms tell us ...

  -3.7 = a1 +d(5 -1)

  -52.3 = a1 +d(15 -1)

Subtracting the first of these equations from the second, we find ...

  10d = -48.6

  d = -4.86 . . . . . . divide by 10

The 19th term will be ...

  a19 = a1 +d(19 -1)

Subtracting the 15th term from this, we find ...

  a19 -a15 = 4d

  a19 = 4d +a15 = 4(-4.86) +(-52.3)

  a19 = -71.74

Joan purchased a refrigerator for $1,200. She made a down payment of $65 and paid
$121 a month for 11 months. Find the total installment price of the refrigerator.

Answers

Pretty sure you set up a proportion somehow, keep months and $ separate… for example, $ over months, then $ over x… not for sure…

The total installment price is $1331.

What is an installment?

Installment means adding the total principal of the loan and the total interest on the principal together and then dividing the sum by the number of installment payments.

For the given situation,

The purchase price of the refrigerator = $1200

Down payment = $65

Monthly installment = $121

Installment period = 11 months

Total installment price = [tex](121)(11)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\$1331[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the total installment price is $1331.

I need Unit 3 parallel and perpendicular lines Homework 5 slope of lines it’s due today!

Answers

14. Slope (m) of PQ = -4

Slope (m) of RS = 1/4

The lines are perpendicular.

15. mPQ = -3

mRS = 3

They are neither perpendicular nor parallel lines.

16. mPQ = 0

mRS = 0

The lines are parallel.

17. x = -6

18. x = -2

What are the Slopes of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines?

If two lines have the same slope (m), then both lines are parallel to one another. On the other hand, if the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals to each other, then both lines are regarded as perpendicular lines because the product of their slopes is equal to -1.

Slope (m) = change in y / change in x

14. Slope (m) of PQ = (-3 - 17) / (1 -(-4))

Slope (m) of PQ = -20/5 = -4

Slope (m) of RS = (4 - 3) / (-5 -(-9))

Slope (m) of RS = 1/4

(1/4)(-4) = -1, therefore, the lines are perpendicular.

15. Slope (m) of PQ = (-1 - 14) / (2 -(-3))

Slope (m) of PQ = -15/5 = -3

Slope (m) of RS = (-10 - 8) / (-2 - 4)

Slope (m) of RS = -18/-6 = 3

They are neither perpendicular nor parallel lines.

16. Slope (m) of PQ = (-1 - (-1)) / (-3 - 2)

Slope (m) of PQ = -0/-5 = 0

Slope (m) of RS = (9 - 9) / (-7 -(-11))

Slope (m) of RS = 0/4 = 0

The lines are parallel.

17. If CD║EF, their slope will be equal. Therefore:

Slope of CD = slope of EF

(-4 - 16)/(2 - x) = (4 - 14)/(-2 -(-6))

-20/(2 - x) = -10/4

-20/(2 - x) = -5/2

Cross multiply

-20(2) = -5(2 - x)

-40 = -10 + 5x

-40 + 10 = 5x

-30 = 5x

-30/5 = x

-6 = x

x = -6

So that AOB makes a right triangle with sides 3-4-5

Answer:

a = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate AB using the distance formula and equate to 5

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = A (0, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B (3, a )

d = [tex]\sqrt{(3-0)^2+(a-4)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{3^2+(a-4)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{9+(a-4)^2}[/tex] , then

[tex]\sqrt{9+(a-4)^2}[/tex] = 5 ( square both sides )

9 + (a - 4)² = 5² = 25 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

(a - 4)² = 16 ( take square root of both sides )

a - 4 = 4 ( add 4 to both sides )

a = 8

Juliet needs to rewrite 3 (x 2) = 6 y in slope-intercept form so she can easily graph it. Which step would be correct to start the process? She could combine the x and 2 to get 3 (2 x) = 6 y. She could divide both sides by 3 to get x 2 = 2 y. She could distribute the 3 to get 3 x 2 = 6 y. She could subtract the 6y to get Negative 6 y = 3 (x 2).

Answers

The step that would be correct to start the process is she could distribute the 3 to get 3x+2=6y

Note that the standard equation of a line in slope-intercept form is expressed as y = mx + b

m is the slopeb is the y-intercept

Given the function 3(x+2)=6y, for Juliet to write in slope-intercept form, the best approach is to first divide both equations by 6 as shown:

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

Swap sides

[tex]y=\frac{x+2}{6}\\y=\frac{1}{6}x +\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

She could as well distribute the 3 over x + 2 to have:

3(x + 2) = 6y

3x + 3(2) = 6y

3x + 6 = 6y

Hence based on the option, the step that would be correct to start the process is she could distribute the 3 to get 3x+2=6y
