What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation 3x+4y=12?

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

y=3-\frac{3}{4}x  or   y=-\frac{3}{4} x+3   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 -\frac{3}{4}

A rectangular prism has volume 4,800 cubic yards, length 20 yards, and height 40 yards. Find its width, in yards.​
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 6 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the length and the height to get 800. You know now that 800 times the width will be your volume, 4800. To find the width, divide the volume by 800, which is the length times the height. Check your work by doing 40 times 20 times 6. You get 4800, which is your volume, which means your correct!
