<h3><u>The y-intercept is -14.</u></h3><h3><u>The x-intercept is -1.56</u></h3>

y = - 9x - 14

We already know the y-intercept of the line is going to be -14. We can tell this because the equation is written in slope-intercept form.

To find the x-intercept, we need to set the value of y equal to 0.

0 = -9x - 14

Add 14 to both sides.

14 = -9x

Divide both sides by -9.

x = 14/-9 = -1.56

Which equation is equivalent to 3x – 4y = 8?

lawyer [7]

The answer is <span>D) Y = 3/4x-2
</span>
3x - 4y = 8
Express it in the term of y.

Subtract 3x from both sides:
3x - 4y - 3x = 8 - 3x
- 4y = 8 - 3x

Divide both sides by -4
-4y/-4 = (8 - 3x)-4
y = 8/-4 - 3x/-4
y = -2 - (-3/4x)
y = -2 + 3/4x
y = 3/4x - 2

What is the equation of a line passing through the point (4,-1) and parallel to the line whose equation is 2y-x=8

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

2y -x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the same x- and y-coefficients. You just have to change the constant on the right. Put the point values into the left expression to see the new constant.

2y -x = 2(-1)-(4) = -6

The parallel line is ...

2y -x = -6
