as you already know, the equation y=-7/4x-2, is already in slope-intercept form and thus its slope is the coefficient of the "x", namely -7/4.

parallel lines have the same exact slope, so a parallel line to this one will also have a slope of -7/4, and it passes through 4,2,

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad \qquad \qquad  slope =  m\implies -\cfrac{7}{4} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-2=-\cfrac{7}{4}(x-4) \\\\\\ y-2=-\cfrac{7}{4}x+7\implies y=-\cfrac{7}{4}x+9

yaroslaw [1]

I was able to find the image associated with this question, in which the coordinates of point Z are given as (-2,-1).

We know that the coordinates of a point are multiplied by the scale factor to give the new coordinates. Since these coordinates result after the dilation, we divide them by the scale factor to obtain the original coordinates as such:

-2/0.25 , -1/0.25

(-8 , -4)

kaheart [24]

Answer:

We use negative values for the money Arleen spends.

a) We determine the change to the value on her gift card:

4(-35)+(-9)= -140+(-9)=-149

b) We determine the amount on money she has left on the gift card after renting the tiller and buying the rake:

200+(-149)=51

Since she has got $51 on her gift card and a wheelbarrow is $50 she is able to buy it:

51>50

RESULT

a) -$149 less b) yes

Simplify the trigonometric expression.<br> sin4(α) − cos4(α) + cos2(α)
natulia [17]

Answer:

sin²(α)

Step-by-step explanation:

sin⁴(α) − cos⁴(α) + cos²(α)

sin⁴(α) − cos²(α) (cos²(α) − 1)

sin⁴(α) − cos²(α) (-sin²(α))

sin⁴(α) + sin²(α) cos²(α)

sin²(α) (sin²(α) + cos²(α))

sin²(α) (1)

sin²(α)
