Answer:

y = \frac{3}{2} x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x - 2y = - 6 into this form

Subtract 3x from both sides

- 2y = - 3x - 6 ( divide all terms by - 2 )

y = \frac{3}{2} x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{3}{2}

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = \frac{3}{2} x + c ← partial equation of parallel line

To find c substitute (4, 2) into the partial equation

2 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 6 = - 4

y = \frac{3}{2} x - 4 ← equation of parallel line

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

lets pick 2 points on the line....(6,5) and (10,3)

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(6,5)....x1 = 6 and y1 = 5

(10,3)....x2 = 10 and y2 = 3

now we sub

slope = (3 - 5) / (10 - 6) = -2/4 = -1/2

now we use y = mx + b

slope(m) = -1/2

u can use either of ur points...I will use (6,5)...x = 6 and y = 5

now we sub and find b, the y int

5 = -1/2(6) + b

5 = -3 + b

5 + 3 = b

8 = b

so ur equation is : y = -1/2x + 8 <===

ANSWER

x = 1.6

EXPLANATION

The given equation is:

- 0.5x - 2 = 2x - 1 - 6

Group similar terms to obtain:

- 0.5x - 2x =  - 5 - 1 + 2

Simplify similar terms,

- 2.5x =  - 4

Divide both sides by -2.5

x =  \frac{ - 4}{ - 2.5}

x = 1.6

Draw a model to represent 42/7
ch4aika [34]

Here is a model I have made (I'm not a great artist). There are 42 circles in total, placed in 7 columns. Each column has 6 circles. This model represents 42/7 by splitting 42 into 7 parts, which are the columns, and showing that each column has 6 circles, which is the answer to 42/7.
