You haven't shared the given line, so all I can do here is to invent a line and then show you how to write the equation of a new line which is parallel to mine and which has an x-intercept of 4.
My invented line: y = (2/3)x + 3
The new line MUST have the same slope: m = 2/3.
Then y = mx + b becomes y = (2/3)x + b. Find the x-intercept by setting y = 0 and solving for x: (2/3)x = 0 - b. Now replace x with 4 and find b:
-b = (2/3)(4) = 8/3. Then b = -8/3, and the new line is
y = (2/3)x - 8/3.
Remark
A cube has six sides, all of them equal. The formula for 1 side is s^2. The formula for all six = 6s^2.
Step One
Find the surface area of the larger cube.
Area = 6 *s^2
s = 15
Area = 6 *15^2
Area = 6 * 225
Area = 1350
Step Two
Find the area of the smaller cube
Area = 6s^2
Area = 6 * 12^2
Area = 6 * 144
Area = 864
Step Three
Find the difference
Area1 - Area2 = difference
1350 - 864 = 486
The difference is area = 486 units^2 <<<<< Answer
There is a slightly shorter way. Take out the common factor of 6
Difference = 6 * (15^2 - 12^2)
Difference = 6 * (225 - 144)
Difference = 6 * (81)
Difference = 486
Just divide the 83,280 by 12, when you do that you get 6940. So 6940 is how much she makes per month then you take that 6940 and divide it by 4 to get what she makes per week, when you do that you get 1735.
So, Susan Johnson would earn 6940$ per month if she would be paid per month and if she was paid per week she would earn 1735$ per week.
The area of the scale drawing would be 1080 square centimeters or (1080 cm^2). I got this answer through first finding the area of the classroom in feet (which is A= lw = [18][20] = 360 ft^2) and then I proceeded to converting it to centimeters via given scale factor (3 cm = 1 foot) and had the answer of 1080 centimeters squared.
