4 + x + 2 = 5
6 + x = 5
x = 5 - 6 = -1
x = -1

4. Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>What we need to know:</u>

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)
Parallel lines always have the same slope

<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-10$

In the given equation, $\frac{5}{2}$ is in the place of m, making it the slope. Because parallel lines have the same slope, the line we're currently solving for therefore has a slope of $\frac{5}{2}$ . Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

$y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$

Plug in the given point (-6,-29) and solve for b

$-29=\frac{5}{2}(-6)+b$

Simplify -6 and 2

$-29=\frac{5}{1}(-3)+b\\-29=(5)}(-3)+b\\-29=-15+b$

Add 15 to both sides to isolate b

$-29+15=-15+b+15\\-14=b$

Therefore, the y-intercept is -14. Plug this back into $y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$ :

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-14$

I hope this helps!

4. A horizontal ellipse, centered at the origin has a major axis of 10 units and minor axis of 8 units. Write the

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

$\frac{x^2}{25} +\frac{y^2}{16} =1$

Step-by-step explanation:

For ellipses, the length of the major axis is represents as:

Major axis = $2a$

where $a$ is called the semi-major axis.

In this case since the major axis is equal to 10 units:

$10=2a$

solving for the semi-major axis $a$ :

$a=10/2\\a=5$

and also the minor axis of an ellipse is represented as:

Minor axis = $2b$

where $b$ is called the semi-minor axis.

Since the minor axis has a length of 8 units:

$8=2b$

solving for b:

$b=8/2\\b=4$

Now we can use the equation for an ellipse centered at the origin (0,0):

$\frac{x^2}{a^2} +\frac{y^2}{b^2} =1$

and substituting the values for $a$ and $b$ :

$\frac{x^2}{5^2} +\frac{y^2}{4^2} =1$

and finall we simplify the expression to get the equation of the ellipse:

$\frac{x^2}{25} +\frac{y^2}{16} =1$
