Y = 3x + 1
Parallel lines have the same slope so the slope would be 3. Take the given equation and add the 3x to the other side. Using the given point. -2 (y point) = 3(-1(x point)) + b. Solve for b by adding the 3 over. b = 1 which is your y intercept.

Yes. When solving a problem like this, multiply the base numbers normally, and add the exponents together.

A right triangle has one leg with unknown length, the other leg with length of 5 m, and the hypotenuse with length 13 times sqrt 5 m.
We can use the Pythagorean formula to find the other leg of the right triangle.
a²+b²=c²
Where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.
According to the given problem,
one leg: a= 5m and hypotenuse: c=13√5 m.
So, we can plug in these values in the above equation to get the value of unknown side:b. Hence,
5²+b²=(13√5)²
25 + b² = 13²*(√5)²
25 + b² = 169* 5
25+ b² = 845
25 + b² - 25 = 845 - 25
b² = 820
b =√ 820
b = √(4*205)
b = √4 *√205
b = 2√205
b= 2* 14.32
b = 28.64
So, b= 28.6 (Rounded to one decimal place)
Hence, the exact length of the unknown leg is 2√205m or 28.6 m (approximately).
