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)

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

2 16/25 or 2.64 pints.

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the 6.6 into a fraction for calculation purposes. you get 33/5. since 3/5 is blue paint and the question wants white paint, calculate 33/5 × 2/5. You should get 66/25 as the answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

radius of the circle=12 cm / 2=6 cm

Area of the square=side²=(12 cm)²=144 cm²

Area of the circle=πr²=(3.142)(6 cm)²≈(3.142)*36 cm²≈113.112 cm²

Area of the four  sides between the square and the circle=

=Area of the square - area of the circle=144 cm²-113.112 cm²=30.888 cm²

shaded area =30.888 cm²/4=7.722 cm²

Answer =7.722 cm²
