Y = 5x + 2...slope here is 5.
A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 5
(1,-3)...x = 1 and y = -3
now sub and find b, the y int
-3 = 5(1) + b
-3 = 5 + b
-3 - 5 = b
-8 = b

so ur equation is : y = 5x - 8 <==

How do you graph the function g(x)

Verizon [17]

Lightly draw a vertical line at -3 (x= -3 is the divider) on the left side graph x + 1, on the right side graph 1/2x + 2.
because these equations don't match up at the -3 coordinate, you have to draw an open (not colored in) circle at the beginning at the 1/2x-2 equation

Two friends are reading the same book. Amy can read 3 pages per minute, and she has already read 9 pages. Sam, who has a reading

Daniel [21]

Amy: (3 pages/min)(x min) + 9 pages
Sam: (2 pages/min)(x min) + 47 pages

Equate these: 3x+9 = 2x + 47

Then x = 38. The two friends will have covered the same number of pages after 38 minutes. How many pages would that be? 3(38)+9 = 123 pages.
