Answer:
8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
93.5 divided by 11 equals 8.5
you just have to reverse the problem
Step-by-step explanation:
"Solutions to the equation" just means that they are points on the line. To find out if these two points land on this line, plug each one in, like this:
1.5 = (1/4)(1) + (5/4)
1.5 = (1/4) + (5/4)
1.5 = (6/4)
1.5 = 1.5
Since the expression is true, this point is on the line.
Do the same process for the second point (remember a point is formatted (x,y)) and see if it is also a point on the line.
To find the x-intercept, simply plug in 0 for y and see what you get. It should look like (x,0).
y = 0.6x - 3.2
The general form of the desired equation is
y = mx + b
where
m = slope of the line
b = y intercept of the line
If two lines are parallel, their slopes will be the same, Since the slope of the
given line "y = 0.6x +3" is 0.6, that will also be the slope of the desired line.
So our equation becomes:
y = 0.6x + b
Now we can substitute the x and y value of the desired point we want the new line to pass through and find b. So
y = 0.6x + b
-5 = 0.6(-3) + b
-5 = -1.8 + b
-3.2 = b
So the desired equation is now
y = 0.6x - 3.2
