The given equation of a line is:

7y-14=-3(5-x)

It is required to find the equation of a line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point (-5,5).

Recall that the equation of a line in point-slope form is given as:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where m is the slope of the line, and the line passes through the point (x₁,y₁).

Rewrite the given equation in the point-slope form:

\begin{gathered} 7y-14=-3(5-x) \\ Distribute\text{ -1 into the parentheses in the right-hand side:} \\ \Rightarrow7y-14=3(-5+x) \\ \text{Rewrite the expression in the parentheses using the co}mmutative\text{ property of addition:} \\ \Rightarrow7y-14=3(x-5) \\ \text{Divide both sides of the equation by 7:} \\ \Rightarrow y-2=\frac{3}{7}(x-5) \end{gathered}

Compare this equation with the standard point-slope form written above, it can be seen that the slope of the line is 3/7.

Recall that the slopes of parallel lines are the same or equal<em>.</em>

It follows that the slope of the required parallel line is also 3/7.

Substitute m=3/7 and the point (x₁,y₁)=(-5,5) into the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

y-5=\frac{3}{7}(x-(-5))

Rewrite the equation in the slope-intercept form and simplify as required:

\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow y-5=\frac{3}{7}(x+5) \\ \Rightarrow y-5=\frac{3}{7}x+\frac{15}{7} \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{3}{7}x+\frac{15}{7}+5 \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{3}{7}x+\frac{50}{7} \end{gathered}

The required equation of the line is y=3/7 x + 50/7.

Given the equation and solution , find the missing coefficient.
Serggg [28]
-6x + 7 = 8x + A

let x = -4
-6(-4) + 7 = 8(-4) + A
24 + 7      = -32 + A
31 + 32    = -32 + 32 + A
63            = 0 + A
A = 63

lukranit [14]
24×1 1/4 is 30
Jake reads 24 per day
24×5=121
168-121=47
Julio reads 30 per day
30×5=150
180-150=30
Jake will have 17 more pages left to read than Julio.

Given: f(x) = x - 7 and h(x) = 2x + 3<br> Write the rule for f(h(x)).
sdas [7]
<h3>Answer:  f( h(x) ) = 2x - 4</h3>

Work Shown:

f(x) = x - 7

f( h(x) ) = h(x) - 7

f( h(x) ) = 2x+3 - 7

f( h(x) ) = 2x - 4

Explanation:

In the second step, I replaced every x with h(x). In the next step, I replaced the h(x) on the right hand side with 2x+3. From there I combined like terms.
