The answer to this question is B

the equation of line L is y=5x+1

Answers

Consider the complete question is "The equation of the line [tex]L_1[/tex] is y=5x+1 and the equation of line [tex]L_2[/tex] is 2y-10x+3=0. How can you show that these two lines are parallel?"

Given:

Equation of [tex]L_1[/tex] is [tex]y=5x+1[/tex].

Equation of [tex]L_2[/tex] is [tex]2y-10x+3=0[/tex].

To show:

The these line as parallel.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]y=5x+1[/tex]        ...(i)

[tex]2y-10x+3=0[/tex]      ...(ii)

Equation (ii) can be written as

[tex]2y=10x-3[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{10x-3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{10x}{2}-\dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y=5x-\dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]           ...(iii)

Slope intercept form of a line is

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]          ...(iv)

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

On comparing (i) with (iv), we get slope of line [tex]L_1[/tex].

[tex]m_1=5[/tex]

On comparing (iii) with (iv), we get slope of line [tex]L_2[/tex].

[tex]m_2=5[/tex]

Since, [tex]m_1=m_2[/tex], therefore, lines [tex]L_1[/tex] and [tex]L_2[/tex] and parallel because slope of two parallel lines are always equal.

Hence proved.

2x+12y-192

Answers

Answer:

-1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the slope we need the equation in the form y=mx+c, and m is the slope.

2x+12y=192

12y = -2x + 192

y = -2/12 x + 16

-2/12 is the slope but this can be simplified to -1/6

Answers

Answer:

Option A

The system of inequalities

x + y ≤ 200

4x + 3y ≤ 750

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the

Number of Adults = x

Number of campers = y

A summer camp cookout is planned for the campers and their families.

There is room for 200 people.

x + y ≤ 200

Each adult costs $4, and and each camper costs $3. There is a maximum budget of $750.

Maximum means the total cost is equal to or less than $750

$4 × x + $3 × y ≤ $750

4x + 3y ≤ 750

The system of inequalities

x + y ≤ 200

4x + 3y ≤ 750

Option A is correct
