Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,-1) and is parallel and perpendicular to the line 2x+7y=14

Parallel: y=-2/7x-2 1/7 Perpendicular: y=7/2x+13

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+7y=14

Subtract 2x from both sides.

7y=-2x+14

Divide both sides by 7 to isolate y.

y=-2/7x+2

Parallel:

Plug in x and y with same slope as the original.

-1=-2/7(-4)+b

Solve for b:

-1=8/7+b

-2 1/7=b

y=-2/7x-2 1/7

Perpendicular:

Plug in x and y with the negative inverse of the original slope.

-1=7/2(-4)+b

Solve for b.

-1=-28/2+b

-1=-14+b

13=b

y=7/2x+13

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)

in simplified version   it would be x ≤-4

step-by-step explanation:

multiply each term in x ≤-4 by -1
