Slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0)
(there is probably another way to do this, but I will be doing it this way)
Isolate the "y" in the equation
3x + 4y = 12 Subtract 3x on both sides
4y = 12 - 3x Divide 4 on both sides
or
The slope is -3/4
For lines to be parallel, they have to have the SAME slope. The given line's slope is -3/4, so the slope of the parallel line is also 
The answer would be D) x = 11.
Add 5 to both sides (5x = 50 + 5)
Simplify 50 + 5 to 55 (5x = 55)
Divide both sides by 5 (x = 55/5)
Simplify 55/5 to 11 (x = 11)
Answer:
less than
Step-by-step explanation:
6/9 is less than 9/12
6/9=.6666666666666666666666666
9/12=.75
