Answer:

y = 2x + 8

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 )

Given

6x - 3y = 15 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

- 3y = - 6x + 15 ( divide all terms by - 3 )

y = 2x - 5 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

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

4 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = 4 + 4 = 8

y = 2x + 8 ← equation of parallel line

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that goes through the point (5, -3) and is parallel to y = 3x - 1.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

$y = 3x -18$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have this point given (5,-3) and we want to create an slope intercept formula given by:

$y = mx +b$

And this equation needs to be parallel to y= 3x-1 so then the slope needs to be equal m =3 and then we can use the point given to find the intercept b like this:

$-3 = 3*5 +b$

$b = 3-15=-18$

And the formula for the slope would be given by:

$y = 3x -18$

When a number is decreased by 4%, the result is 93. What is the original number

romanna [79]

Answer:

<u>The original number is 96.875</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the original number using the Direct Rule of Three, this way:

Percentage Number

100 x

96 93

***********************************************

96x = 93 * 100

96x = 9,300

x = 9,300/96

x = 96.875

<u>The original number is 96.875</u>

Right and solve an equation to answer the question 91 is 130% of what number W

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The number is 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Is means equals and of means multiply

91 = 130% *W

Changing to a decimal form

91 = 1.3W

Divide each side by 1.3

91/1.3 = 1.3 W/1.3

70 = W
