Graphs/736908: find the equation of the line that contains the point (3,-6) and has the same slope as the line 4x-y=5 1 solutions
Answer 450050 by MathLover1(6614) on 2013-04-12 08:54:47 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
to find the equation of the line that contains the point (  ,  ) and has the   as the line  , first find
 ....solve for
 .......this is  form  ;so, slope is
now find the equation of the line that contains the point (  ,  ) and has the slope
| Solved by pluggable solver: FIND a line by slope and one point |
What we know about the line whose equation we are trying to find out:
- it goes through point (3, -6)
- it has a slope of 4
First, let's draw a diagram of the coordinate system with point (3, -6) plotted with a little blue dot:

Write this down: the formula for the equation, given point and intercept a, is
(see a paragraph below explaining why this formula is correct)
Given that a=4, and , we have the equation of the line:

Explanation: Why did we use formula ? Explanation goes here. We are trying to find equation y=ax+b. The value of slope (a) is already given to us. We need to find b. If a point ( , ) lies on the line, it means that it satisfies the equation of the line. So, our equation holds for ( , ): Here, we know a, , and , and do not know b. It is easy to find out: . So, then, the equation of the line is: .
Here's the graph:

Surface-area/736461: How many tiles are needed to cover the floor of a room whose dimensions are 10 feet by 6 feet if the size of each tile is 6 inches by 6 inches?
please show the solution. thanks! 1 solutions
Answer 449840 by MathLover1(6614) on 2013-04-11 10:14:33 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!to cover the floor of a room whose dimensions are  by  if the size of each tile is  by  you first calculate the area of a room and the area of a tile
let the area of a room be  and  the area of a tile
and
to get number of tiles you need to divide  by
since the units are different, first you will need to convert  to  or  to
let's convert  to
 , so the size of each tile is  by  which is  by
then
now we can divide  by
 ...you will need  tiles
or covert  to  :

Sequences-and-series/736363: Is 12,40,68,96 sequence geometric or arthmetic? If possible what is the common ratio or difference
1 solutions
Answer 449809 by MathLover1(6614) on 2013-04-11 00:17:18 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!For  sequences, the common difference is  , and the first term  is often referred to simply as "  ". Since you get the next term by adding the common difference, the value of  is just  . The third term is  . The fourth term is  . Following this pattern, the  term an will have the form
 .
