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

Nady [450]

Answer:

She can put a maximum of 10 boxes in the cart.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that each cart that Debbie uses to move the boxes supports a maximum of 200 pounds, and that each box that she places in the cart weighs 20 pounds, to determine the maximum number of boxes that can fit in the cart, the following calculation must be performed :

200/20 = X

20/2 = X

10 = X

Thus, she can put a maximum of 10 boxes in the cart.
