Answer:

y = 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The line here is parallel

Slope remains the same
Y-intercept is now -6

Equation of line

y = mx + c [where m = slope and c = y-intercept]
y = 3x - 6

Parallel lines have slopes that are equal to one another.

Slope intercept form is:

y = mx + b (where m = slope and b = y-intercept)

the equation of the 1st line

y = 3x + 4 so it’s slope (m) = 3

the problem tells us the y-intercept of the second line is -6.

so we plug the two knowns into slope intercept form to get the equation of the second line:

y = 3x - 6

I hope this helps and is the BRAINLIEST!

Great luck with your studies :)

Answer:

2:5

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of a dimension on Figure B to the corresponding dimension on Figure A is ...

4:10 = 8.6:21.5 = 10:25 = 2:5 or 1:2.5

___

In such problems, it isn't clear if the desired answer is the ratio of two integers or if it is 1 : (something). We have expressed it both ways, so you can use the answer that matches your requirement.

Eugene walked all the way to school at 3 mph then realized she forgot her math book (how could she?!), so she ran back at 7 mph.

Fynjy0 [20]

$\text{Answer: }1\frac{23}{40}\ miles\text{ far she live from school.}$

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Speed at which Eugene walked all the way to school = 3 mph

After realizing that she forgot her math book, she ran back

Speed at which Eugene walked back to her house = 7 mph

Let the distance between her house and her school be x

According to question,

$\frac{x}{3}+\frac{x}{7}=\frac{45}{60}\\\\\frac{7x+3x}{21}=\frac{3}{4}\\\\\frac{10x}{21}=\frac{3}{4}\\\\x=\frac{3\times 63}{4\times 10}=\frac{63}{40}=1\frac{23}{40}\ miles.$

Hence,

$1\frac{23}{40}\ miles\text{ far she live from school.}$

After the outbreak of a mysterious disease the average wait time at a hospital increased by 70% before the outbreak the average

qaws [65]

Answer:

1.7m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 'm' was the waiting time before the outbreak

After the outbreak, waiting time increased by 70%.

This implies that :

70% of m increase

m + 70% of m

m + 70/100 of m

m + ( 70÷100 ) × m

m + 0.7m

= 1.7m
