Which line is parallel to a line that has a slope of 3 and a y-intercept at (0, 0)?

anyanavicka [17]

we know that

If two lines are parallel , then their slopes are the same

we will proceed to calculate the slope of each line to determine the solution.

The formula to calculate the slope m between two points of the line is equal to

$m=\frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)}$

<u>case N 1) </u>line AB

Let

$A(-4,3)\\B(4,3)$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{(3-3)}{(4+4)}$

$m=\frac{(0)}{(8)}$

$m=0$

$0\neq 3$

therefore

<u>The line AB is not the solution</u>

<u>vase N 2)</u> line FG

Let

$F(-3,-1)\\G(3,-3)$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{(-3+1)}{(3+3)}$

$m=\frac{(-2)}{(6)}$

$m=-1/3$

$-1/3\neq 3$

therefore

<u>The line EG is not the solution</u>

case N 3) line CD

Let

$C(-3,0)\\D(3,2)$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{(2-0)}{(3+3)}$

$m=\frac{(2)}{(6)}$

$m=1/3$

$1/3\neq 3$

therefore

<u>The line CD is not the solution</u>

case N 4) line HJ

Let

$H(-1,-4)\\J(1,2)$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{(2+4)}{(1+1)}$

$m=\frac{(6)}{(2)}$

$m=3$

$3=3$

therefore

<u>The line HJ is the solution</u>

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

line HJ

A restaurant needs to buy three hundred sixty-seven new plates. if each box has three plates in it, how many boxes will they nee

saw5 [17]

In order to figure this question out, you will need to divide 367 into 3. 367/3 is 122.333... You can round it, so your answer will be 123 boxes.

28-2(64)

28 -128 = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

28-2(4^2*4)

28 - 2 (4*4*4)

28-2(64)

28 -128 = 100
