2/3 + 3/4 = 8/12 + 9/12 = 17/12 = 1 5/12
1 + 5/12 = 12/12 + 5/12 = 17/12 = 1 5/12
2/3 + 3/4 = 1 + 5/12
X = -2 and -5
You can set both equal to 0 to find the answers.
X=15
Hope this helps I had the same problem. That’s what I got.
Point t slope form:
y + y value = m (x + x value) where m is the gradient
Parallel line must have the same gradient as the two lines never meet, so the gradient must be 4. This eliminates option B and D.
Remember that point-slope form is still an equation, so the values of both sides must be equal. So let's substitute the given coordinates.
Option A:
y-6=4(x+2)
-6-6 (-12) does not equal to 4(-2+2) (0)
Option C:
y+6=4(-2+2)
-6+6 (0) = 4(-2+2) (0)
Therefore, option C is your answer.
