Find the equation for the line that passes through the point (2, -3), and that is parallel to the line with the equation x - 3y = 3

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is the factor of x, when the equating looks like

y = ...

so,

x - 3y = 3

x = 3y + 3

3y = x - 3

y = 1/3 x - 1

so, the original slope is 1/3.

a parallel line has the same slope.

having a specific point we can use the point-slope form as equation :

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

with m being the slope, and (x1, y1) being a point on the line.

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

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

simplified that is

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

y = 1/3 x - 2/3 - 3 = 1/3 x - 2/3 - 9/3 = 1/3 x - 11/3 =

= 1/3 × (x - 11)

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x - \frac{11}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the line x-3y=3.

We want to write the equation of the line that is parallel to this line, and that passes through (2, -3).

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Therefore, let's find the slope of x-3y=3.

The line is currently written in standard form, which is ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients.

In order to find the slope of this line, we can convert it into slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the value of y at the y intercept.

To do that, we need to isolate y on one side; this is the same as solving the equation for y.

x - 3y = 3

Start by subtracting x from both sides

-3y = -x + 3

Now divide both sides by -3

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

The slope of the line is 1/3, as 1/3 is the coefficient in front of x.

It is also the slope of our new line.

Since the question doesn't specify which format for the equation of the line, we can use any form. However, let's put the equation of the new line into slope-intercept form.

So, substitute 1/3 as m in y=mx+b.

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

Now we need to find b.

As the equation passes through the point (2, -3), we can use its values to help solve for b.

Substitute 2 as x and -3 as y.

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

Multiply.

[tex]-3 = \frac{2}{3} + b[/tex]

Subtract 2/3 from both sides (we can write this as an improper fraction).

[tex]-\frac{11}{3} = b[/tex]

Substitute -11/3 as b in the equation.

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x - \frac{11}{3}[/tex]

Suppose you are a new employee. You notice that each payment option describes a sequence and decide to use rules to help determine which option to take.
Determine the iterative rule for each sequence. Show your work.

Your friend trusts your tables in Problem 1, but wonders if you wrote the iterative rules correctly. Show two calculations to convince your friend that both your rules work.

my table is below (it is correct, I checked with my math teacher, it is ten percent added to the previous week for all you doubters)

Answers

The iterative rule for each sequence in the table will be to use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line y=mx+b.

How to depict the information?

In this situation, x is the week, and y is the amount paid. Basically, you need to find the slope, represented by m, which is the amount the amount paid increases by each week, and the y-intercept, b, which is the "amount paid" at week 0.

The x-coordinate is the week, and the y coordinate is the amount paid. Because the weeks are incrementing by 1, x2-x1=1.

After that, to complete the rule, you need to find the y-intercept. If the amount paid is 200 on week 1, and the amount paid increases by 50 each week.

Another way to think about it is by plugging your points into the incomplete rule. Let b represent the y-intercept. Plug in the values for week 1 and solve for b.

The calculations to convince your friend that both your rules work are:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x1,y1)=(1,200)

(x2,y2)=(2,250)

m=(250-200)/(2-1)

=50/1 =50

y=50x+b

200=50(1)+b

200=50+b

b=200-50

Often times you can use similar triangles in the real world. Sarah is attempting to find the height of a tree by using a mirror. By the laws of physics she knows that the angle of incidence is congruent to the angle of reflection (these are marked in red on the diagram). Explain why the two triangles are similar and if she knows her height and the distance from the mirror to her feet and also the distance from the mirror to the tree how could she calculate the height of the tree?

Answers

The two triangles are similar by the AA Similarity theorem.

The height of the tree can be calculated by figuring out the ratio between the distance between the mirror to her feet and the distance from the mirror to the tree

How to use the concept of similar Triangles?

From Law of Reflection, we know that the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal to each other.

Now, triangles can be proved similar by the AA, SAS, or SSS theorems. However, in this question, the triangles as seen in the attached image can be proved similar by the AA similarity theorem.

This is because both triangles have one congruent angle in common.

Sarah and the tree are standing straight and perpendicular to the ground and as such, the angles formed by Sarah and the tree are right angles.

The above tells us that the two triangles have two angles in common, making them similar triangles by the AA (Angle Angle) similarity theorem.

Since the triangles are similar, it means that the ratios of the sides of the triangles will be the same. Thus,  if Sarah knows the distance from the mirror to her feet and the distance from the mirror to the tree, she can create the ratio between the two triangles.

Please make sure you actually answer the question and not type something that isn't regarding the question. Select the correct text in the passage.Which detail most refines the idea that Sandra Cisneros embraces that she can tell more than just her story?(8) When I wrote Mango Street, in the beginning it was as a memoir with the intent of writing something that was just mine.that no one could tell me was wrong. That's how it began.(9) By the time I finished it, I was working in a school in a Latino community in Chicago-a very poor, alternative high school. Istarted writing stories of my students' lives and weaving it into this neighborhood from my past.(10) During that period, when I had my face in the dust and didn't know what to do in this 50-student school with no moneyand minimum wage-chalk I had to bring to class, girls and boys whose lives were so difficult, lives that no head of statecould ever imagine-I was really frustrated as a high school teacher as to how to save their lives. The only thing I could dowas to write about them and try to find some consolation before sleeping. These stories were written from that veryhelpless state. I think when we're most face-in-the-dust impotent, and we put ourselves at service to others, that's when wereally are channeled to light. I think that's why the book is a success. I wasn't thinking of the reader, or that the book is goingto be published. None of that. I think the less you can think about the reader, and the more you work on behalf of others. Ireally believe that it puts you in a state of grace. Read the memoir carefully then answer the question.Nights and DragonsFrom the memoir of author Abigail Prynne1I sit at my desk listening to thunder growl outside my window. Flashes of light burst through the darkness, and wind races past my window. The thrilling combination of sight and sound conjures up visions of dragons roaring proudly, breathing fire, and soaring across the midnight sky. Dragons first fascinated me when I was a little girl. They have followed me ever since. The magnificent creatures appeared in storybooks I read in the library, paintings I saw in museums, movies I watched in the theater, and the dreams I had in my sleep. By the time I was thirteen, one question consumed me. I wanted to know if dragons ever existed, so I set out on a quest for facts.2As I started my research, I discovered many skeptics. Scientists presented evidence to show why dragons could notand did notexist. They explained that it would be impossible for dragons to fly because they would be too big. They laughed at the idea of dragons breathing fire. They pointed out that no other animal has ever done this. They said that if dragons had lived, someone would have found remains somewhere in the world. No bones about it, there were plenty of logical explanations. It would have been easy for me to accept that the only place dragons ever existed was in the imaginations of those who believed.3I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed.4With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research. I found that some experts disagreed with popular arguments against dragons. They suggested that a dragon could have four stomachs like a cow. If it created stomach gases like birds, it might create enough to lift itself off the ground. This would give it the ability to fly. If it forced out air when diving toward the earth, it might release gases which could ignite into flame. When the animal died, the stomachs would release strong acids that would dissolve its dead body over time. Biologists backed up these ideas with sketches and models based on known animals. Not everyone agreed with these ideas, but many of the things we accept about dinosaurs and other extinct species started the same way.5I doubt we will ever truly know whether dragons existed. There may always be two sides to the fiery debate. Some will say the stories come from active imaginations. Some will believe with all their hearts that the legendary creatures roamed our ancient world. I don't know for certain which side to believe, but the sound and fury of a night like this makes me smile. It rekindles my childhood dreams and keeps the exciting possibility alive.In paragraph 5, the author discusses two sides to the dragon debate. Which statement best summarizes the ideas in the paragraph? The author implicitly states that she believes that dragons once existed. The author explicitly states that she believes that dragons once existed. The author implicitly states that she believes that dragons did not exist.
