Hmmm so, parallel lines have the same slope, so a line that's parallel to <span>y=1/3x-5, will also have the same slope as that one, what would that be anyway? </span> , well, low and behold, since that equation is in slope-intercept form already, we can see is just 1/3. <span> so, what is the equation of a line whose slope is 1/3 and runs through 3, -7?
The point-slope form of this line would be y + 7 = 1/3(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
To start, we need to first note that the new slope will be 1/3. This is because parallel lines have the same slope. Then we can plug that and the point into point-slope form.
the question said that the number of box of nails are purchased depending on how many houses they planned to build. so for knowing the boxes of nails they need to purchase they need to subtract the boxes which were left and the boxes we need now
