For the answer to the question above,
The slope of the line of the line is calculated through the equation,
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) 

Using the first two points in the given,
 m = (-7 - 9) / (-12 - 8) = 4/5

The line parallel to this has also a slope of 4/5. Through the point-slope form, the equation of the second line is,
 y - -15 = (4/5)(x - -5)

Simplifying gives the answer of,
y = (4/5)x -11

Eliminating the fraction, 
5y = 4x - 55

I hope my answer helped you.

9 + x - 3 = 4x - 3 <br><br> Find x, please explain asap
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

To simplify this equation, don't worry about the -3, since there is one on both sides. Therefore, they cancel out.

So, 9 + x = 4x

When you plug 3 in for x, it becomes:

9 + 3 = 4 x 3

12 = 12

This equation is true, therefore, x is your answer!

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation if necessary round to the nearest hundredth
densk [106]
-5y^2 + 2y + 2 = 0

y = -2 ± ✓4 - 4*-5*2. /. -10

y = -2 ± ✓44. / -10

y = -1 ± ✓11. / -5

(-1+✓11)/-5. and (-1-✓11)/-5

Okay so to represent juice we are going to use X, and to represent water we are going to use Y.

We also know that the first two starting equations are:

6x + y = 135

4x + 2y = 110

We can re-arrange the first equation so that it equals y (for now), so it is going to end up looking like this:

y = -6x +135

Now you can take that equation and plug into either one of the starting two equations.  I chose the second equation.  We just substitute what y equals in for y in the equation, so we have:

4x + 2(135 - 6x) =  110

Now solve

4x + 270 -12x = 110

-8x + 270 = 110

Subtract 270 from both sides

-8x = -160

Now divide by -8 on both sides

x = 20

We can now confirm that juice costs $20

Now lets plug that into the equation where we solved for y, to get the actual value of y.

y = 135 - 6(20)

y = 135 - 120

y = 15

The price of water costs $15

From this we can conclude that the cost of juice is $20 and the price of water is $15
