what is an equation of the line that is parallel to y equals negative 4x - 5 and passes through the point -2, 6

Mathematics

Bond [772]3 years ago
3 0

y = - 4x - 2

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 4x - 5 is in this form

with slope m = - 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 6 ) into the partial equation

6 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 8 = - 2

y = - 4x - 2 ← equation of parallel line

mina [271]

Answer:

-10 points

Step-by-step explanation:

A game show awards 30 points for each correct answer and deducts 50 points for each in correct answer. A contestant answers 2 questions incorrectly and 3 questions correctly. What is his final score?

Let us say Initial number of points = 0

Hence,

He answers 2 incorrectly = 0 - 50 - 50

= -100

He answers 3 correctly =-100 + 30 + 30 + 30

His final score = -100 + 30 + 30 + 30

= -10 points
