if im not mistaken the answer is 17.60. this is because 1/3 of 24 is 8, and 12x2 (the two kids) equals 24, and 60% off of 24 is 9.6. 8+9.6 is 17.6(0) :)

Find the equation of the line that passes through (4,4) and is parallel to y=2x+4. Leave your answer in the form

Bess [88]

Answer:

y=2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is parallel to another line, the only thing that's different in the equation is the y-intercept. Therefore we can solve for the y-intercept using the point (4,4)...

Note that the slope-intercept equation is y=mx+b where b is the y-intercept and m is the slope. x and y are the x and y coordinate pairs.

y=2x+b

4=2(4)+b

4=8+b

b=-4

Therefore the equation of the line that is parallel to y=2x+4 and passes through (4,4) is...

y=2x-4
