parallel = same slope
y=1/5x-4
slope= 1/5x
solve using for b using y=mx+b
-4=(1/5)(5)+b
-4=4+b
(subtract -4 from both sides)
-8=b
put your equation together:
y=1/5x-8
-1(x) or -x. In your case, -1(-7).
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 angles are Alternate exterior angles and are congruent, so
2x - 3 = x + 4 ( subtract x from both sides )
x - 3 = 4 ( add 3 to both sides )
x = 7
For the lines to be parallel, then x = 7
You can use y = {-1, x ≤ 0 and y = {x - 1, x > 0 as two functions for your piecewise function. The first function will be a horizontal line. The second function will be a straight line with a slope of 1 and y-intecept of -1. Messaged you the graph.
