Answer:

X = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

x2-36=5x

take away 2x from both sides

-36=3x

divide both sides by 3

X = -12

Answer:

x=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

x2-36=5x

add 36 to both sides

x2=5x+36

subtract 5x from both sides

x(-3)=36

divide both sides by -3

x=-12

substitute to prove right

(-12)2-36=5(-12)

-24-36=-60

-60=-60

Match each pair of points to the equation of the line that is parallel to the line passing through the points.

Paraphin [41]

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then, their slopes are equal.

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

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

we will proceed to calculate the slope in each case, to determine the solution of the problem

Case A) Point $B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$

Find the slope BC

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{-5-2}{7-5}$

$m=\frac{-7}{2}$

$m=-3.5$

The equation $y=-3.5x-15$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$

therefore

the answer Part A) is

$B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$ ------> $y=-3.5x-15$

Case B) Point $D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$

Find the slope DE

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{9-6}{5-11}$

$m=\frac{3}{-6}$

$m=-0.5$

The equation $y=-0.5x-3$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$

therefore

the answer Part B) is

$D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$ ------> $y=-0.5x-3$

Case C) Point $F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)$

Find the slope FG

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{-8-12}{3+7}$

$m=\frac{-20}{10}$

$m=-2$

Any linear equation with slope $m=-2$ will be parallel to the line passing through the points $F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)$

Case D) Point $H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$

Find the slope HI

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{9-4}{8-4}$

$m=\frac{5}{4}$

$m=1.25$

The equation $y=1.25x+4$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$

therefore

the answer Part D) is

$H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$ ------> $y=1.25x+4$

Case E) Point $J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)$

Find the slope JK

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{8-2}{-9-7}$

$m=\frac{6}{-16}$

$m=-0.375$

Any linear equation with slope $m=-0.375$ will be parallel to the line passing through the points $J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)$

Case F) Point $L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$

Find the slope LM

Substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{-12+7}{4-5}$

$m=\frac{-5}{-1}$

$m=5$

The equation $y=5x+19$ is parallel to the line passing through the points $L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$

therefore

the answer Part F) is

$L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$ ------> $y=5x+19$

What percent of 2b is: 0.04b; 0.2b; 0.56b; 1.8b; 2.5b; 3b; By what percent are they each larger or smaller than 2b

Leviafan [203]

.04b is 2% of 2b because .04 multiplied by 100 is 4 then you divide by 2 which gets you 2.
.04/2=x/100
cross multiply and divide
it is 98% smaller than 2b.

.2b is 10% of 2b because .2 multiplied by 100 is 20 then you divide by 2 and get 10.
.2/2=x/100
it is 90% smaller than 2b.

.56b is 28% of 2b because .56 multiplied by 100 is 56 then divide by 2 and you get 28.
.56/2=x/100
it is 72% smaller than 2b.

1.8b is 90% of 2b because 1.8 multiplied by 100 is 180 then divide it by 2. you get 90.
1.8/2=x/100
it is 10% smaller than 2b.

2.5b is 125% of 2b because 2.5 multiplied by 100 Is 250 and 250 divided by 2 is 125.
2.5/2=x/100
it is 25% larger than 2b

3b is 150% of 2b because 3 multiplied by 100 is 300 and 300 divided by 2 is 150.
3/2=x/100
it is 50% larger than 2b
