Since parallel lines have the same slope, we can see that the slope of the line y = 2/3x + 1 is equal m = 2/3, so for our equation we also have m = 2/3.

Now, using the point (0, -4), we have:

$\begin{gathered} y=\frac{2}{3}x+b \\ (0,-4)\colon \\ -4=\frac{2}{3}\cdot0+b \\ b+0=-4 \\ b=-4 \end{gathered}$

So our equation is:

$y=\frac{2}{3}x-4$

y = 2/3x - 4

What is 7/10+20/100?

Firdavs [7]

9/10. make the bottom numbers the same to add fractions. you can do that by multiplying 7/10 by 10/10.

70/100 + 20/100 = 90/100

90/100 = 9/10

you can also reduce 20/100 to 2/10.

7/10 + 2/10 = 9/10
