--------------------------------------------------
Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + 4                                      
Slope = -1/3                                       
Slope of the parallel line = -1/3          


--------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + c                                  

--------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + c                                   
at point (6, 5)
5 = -1/3 (6) + c                                 
5 = - 2 + c                                         
c = 5 + 2                                         
c = 7

--------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into y = -1/3x + c
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + 7 

--------------------------------------------------
Answer: y = -1/3 x + 7 (Answer B)

The length of the longer leg of a right triangle is
Harman [31]
A and b are legs
a^2+b^2=c^2
lets say
a>b

so
a=13+3b
c=14+3b

a^2+b^2=c^2
(13+3b)^2+b^2=(14+3b)^2
9b^2+78b+169+b^2=9b^2+84b+196
10b^2+78b+169=9b^2+84b+196
minus 9b^2 both sides
b^2+78b+169=84b+196
minus 84b both sides
b^2-6b+169=196
minus 196 both sides
b^2-6b-27=0
factor
(b+3)(b-9)=0
set to zero
b+3=0
b=-3, false, dimentions cannot be negative

b-9=0
b=9

shorter leg is 9

a=13+3b
a=13+3(9)
a=13+27
a=40

c=14+3b
c=14+27
c=41

side legnths are
9in, 40in, 41in
