The first step would be to combine like terms which is 3p and p so your equation would look like:

4p - 7 = 13

In the second step you would add 7 to both sides which would give you:

4p = 20

The third and last step would be to divide both sides with 4 which would give you your answer:

p = 5

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that is parallel given the equation and point.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

$y = \frac{4x}{5}+\frac{42}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for two lines to be parallel, they must have the same slope. So, we know that the slope of the other line is 4/5.

We're given an ordered pair, so we can solve for $b$ in the (slope-intercept form) equation $y = mx + b$

$2 = \frac{4}{5}(-8) + b\\2 = \frac{-32}{5}+b\\b = 2 + \frac{32}{5}\\ b = \frac{42}{5}$

$y = \frac{4x}{5}+\frac{42}{5}$

The vertices of ABC are A (-5, 5), B (-2,5), C(-2,3).

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

It will be in the attachment below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Translating a vertex 3 units down and 4 units to the left means that the x coordinate is 4 less than before and the y is 3 less. So, subtract 4 from -5 to get -9; from -2 (twice) to get -6 (twice), and subtract 3 from 5 (twice) to get 2 (twice); from 3 to get 0. So, the new coordinates are (-9, 2), (-6, 2), and (-6, 0). The original shape is in red, and the translated shape is blue.
