What is the equation for a line parallel to the line shown in the graph, that passes through the point (-3, 9)?

Answer: option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

c represents the y intercept

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Slope = (8 - 5)/(4 - 0) = 3/4

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 3, 9) is 3/4

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = 3/4, x = - 3 and y = 9 into y = mx + c. It becomes

9 = 3/4 × - 3 + c

9 = - 9/4 + c

c = 9 + 9/4

c = 45/4

The equation becomes

y = 3x/4 + 45/4

Solve this system of equations. y = 5x +20 and y = -2x -8
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

y = 0

x = -4

( x, y ) = ( -4 , 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x + 20

y = -2x - 8

Substitute

5x + 20 = -2x - 8

Add 8 on both sides

5x + 20 + 8 = -2x - 8 + 8

5x + 28 = -2x

Subtract 5x on both sides

5x - 5x + 28 = -2x - 5x

28 = -7x

Divide by -7 on both sides

28/-7 = -7x/-7

-4 = x

Now that you have x, you can substitute it in one of the equations that was given to find the value of y.

y = 5x + 20

y = 5(-4) + 20

y = -20 + 20

y = 0

Or....

y = -2x - 8

y = -2(-4) - 8

y = 8 - 8

y = 0

They will both be 0 no matter what

Point form = ( -4, 0 )

Hope this helped
