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.

- Point slope form is y - b = m(x - a), where m is the slope and (a, b) is a point on the line.
- Parallel lines have the same slope

The given equation is in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. m in y = 4x - 14 is 4; our equation in point-slope form will have 4 as m.
We have the slope (4), so now we have to add the "point on the line" which is given: P(-2, -6). That's all the information needed to write an equation in point-slope form that's parallel to y = 4x - 14; all that's left is to substitute and simplify.

y - b = m(x - a)
y - (-6) = 4(x - (-2))
y + 6 = 4(x + 2)

Answer:
C. y + 6 = 4(x + 2)

Answer:

80 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

all triangles have the angles of 180 degrees, so by that logic, 180-70-30=80.

Plz help me with my geometry asap 50 pts and brainliest NO SCAMMING OR I WILL REPORT
bearhunter [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You already got the first step, where D is the midpoint of AC and AB is congruent to BC, since it's given.

2. AD will be congruent to DC, via the definition of a midpoint (a midpoint is the middle point of a line segment, and it splits the segment into two congruent parts)

3. BD is equal to BD, via reflexive property. ( It's a shared side between the two triangles)

4. that means that ΔADB ≅ΔCDB via SSS rule.

5. ∠ABD ≅∠CDB by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent)

Hope this helps! :)

I need this answer too please help
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

When 2 chords of a circle intersect then the product of the parts of one is equal to the product of the parts of the other, that is

2x = 3 × 4, that is

2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 6
