Answer:
y = -5x Y8
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Your function is
y = 9 − 5x = -5x+ 9
slope = -5
The parallel line
The line must have slope = -5 and include (0, 8), so
8 = -5×(0) + b
8 = 0 + b
b = 8
The equation for the parallel line is
y = -5x + 8
In the diagram below, the red line is the graph of y = 9 -5x.
The parallel blue line is the graph of y = -5x + 8.
Equation to find number's value:
Number's value: n = 35
Explanation:
Let n be the unknown number for this problem.
One fifth of a number is the same as .
Three times the number is the same as 3n.
Twice the number plus 42 is the same as 2n + 42.
So, using the information we've gathered so far, we can create the equation that will provide us with n's value.
Equation:
We can use this equation to find n's value.
You can subtract 2n from both sides to get the equation , which is the same thing as the equation we were using.
Now add n and together to get
.
After you do this, your equation should look like .
Now divide both sides by to get n's value.
n = 35
