Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y=-7/4x-2 through the point (4,-2)

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

m = - 7/4

Point (4, -2)

y - - 2= -7/4(x-4)

y + 2 = - 7/4x + 7

y = - 7/4x +7-2

y = - 7/4 x + 5

The equation of the line that is parallel to the given line is option (D) [tex]y=-\frac{7}{4}x+5[/tex] is the correct answer.

The equation of a line means an equation in x and y whose solution set is a line in the (x,y) plane. The standard form of equation of a line is ax + by + c = 0. Here a, b, are the coefficients, x, y are the variables, and c is the constant term.

For the given situation,

The line is [tex]y=-\frac{7}{4} x-2[/tex] ------ (1)

The general equation of line in slope intercept form is

[tex]y = mx + c[/tex] ------ (2)

On comparing the equation 1 and 2, we get the slope as

⇒ [tex]m=-\frac{7}{4}[/tex] and

When two lines are parallel, then the slope of the parallel line is equal to the slope of the given line.

So, the slope of the parallel line is [tex]m = -\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Thus the equation of the parallel line passing through the point (x1,y1) is (4,-2) as,

⇒ [tex]y-y1=m(x-x1)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y-(-2)=-\frac{7}{4} (x-4)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y+2=-\frac{7}{4} (x-4)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y=-\frac{7}{4}x+\frac{7}{4} (4)-2[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y=-\frac{7}{4}x+7-2[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y=-\frac{7}{4}x+5[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line is option (D) [tex]y=-\frac{7}{4}x+5[/tex] is the correct answer.

How do I solve this

After a grueling year of work, you (Padcha) decide you need absolute peace and quiet for about a month (February). You visit San Pedro de Atacama in the Atacama dessert of Chile, one of the most pristine and beautiful spots on earth. Every morning you have an espresso with a Swiss veterinarian, Dieter, that has retired there and maintains a small hotel and cafe. After week 2 of peace and quiet you become restless for a more meaningful existence.
In a conversation Dieter you learn that he also raises Llama's, Alpacas, and Vicuñas (all members of the Camel Family) for their wool. The conversation follow--
Dieter: "Padcha, I have this problem related to the nutrition of my animals. I know the nutritional content of the feeds I have available (see the Daily Nutritional Requirements for Animals table). I also know the cost of a kilogram of each feed (see table). I would love to have a way of selecting a mix of Corn, Tankage, and Alfalfa that minimizes my daily cost of providing good nutrition for my animals."
Padcha: "Dieter, I think I might be able to help. In LP optimization, there is a problem that is called the nutrition problem. Of course, it is not only about nutrition, it's also about allocating available resources, in an optimal way (minimal cost), to satisfy requirements. You can image, that there are a lot of problems like that in business. A typical constraint, say for carbohydrates, would read-- the number of kilos of Corn times 90, plus the number of kilos of Tankage times 20, plus the number of kilos of Alfalfa times 40 must equal a minimum 200 units of carbohydrates. The constraint shows how we use the resources/decision variables (kilos of Corn, etc.) to satisfy nutritional needs.
Daily Nutritional Requirements for Animals
Kg. Corn KG. Tankage Kg. Alfalfa Min. Daily Reqs.
Carbohydrates 90 20 40 200
Protein 30 80 60 180
Vitamins 10 20 60 150
$Cost of feed/Kg. 35 30 25
a) What is the LP for the nutrition problem?
b) Solve the problem using Solver. What is the value of the optimal solution? What is the number of kilos of Corn, Tankage, and Alfalfa? (Place the Answer Report below)
c) What if the requirements were raised by 1 unit for carbohydrates (from 200 to 201). Without re-solving the problem, what is the new optimal solution value and the units of carbohydrates? (Provide the logic for your answer.)
d) What is the allowable range of values for the coefficient of the Tankage in the objective function, for which a change of the optimal decision variables will not occur?
