A line that is parallel to another line will have the same slope, in our case, the slope of 3. Therefore, we can just change the y-intercept to create any line parallel to y=3x+5 (just remember to keep the slope the same). For example, y=3x+5, y=3x-9, and y=3x+6.2 are all equations that are parallel to y=3x+5.

What is the equasion then i can tell u the answer
Answer:
Exact form: -7/10
Decimal form: -0.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by by factors that don't contain the variable.
Answer:
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
- A line parallel to the x-axis has the same value of the <em>dependent variable (y)</em> for all the values of the <em>independent variable (x)</em>. Hence, the line would be an <u>horizontal line that passes through the y-axis and never meets the x-axis</u>. Since this line satisfies the condition of passing through the coordenates (x,y), (-6,4), then the equation is equal to the value of the coordinate y.
Therefore, the equation of a line that satisfies these two conditions is <em>y = 4</em>.
By using the Distributive Property, you would multiply 3 into the parenthesis (3 · x and 3 · -4)
3(x - 4) = 24
3x - 12 = 24
Then, you would solve like any normal one-step equation.
3x - 12 = 24
+12 +12
__________
3x 36
__ = __
3 3
x = 12, which is your final solution.
