I believe the answer you are looking for is -20.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
<u>What we need to know:</u>
- Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form:
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis) - Parallel lines always have the same slope and different y-intercepts
<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

Rearrange this equation into slope-intercept form (this will help us find the slope)
Subtract x from both sides

Divide both sides by -2

Now, we can identify clearly that the slope of the given line is
since it's in the place of m. Because parallel lines always have the same slopes, the line we're currently solving for would therefore have a slope of
as well. Plug this into
:

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

Plug in the given point (-6,-8)

Add 3 to both sides to isolate b

Therefore, the y-intercept is -5. Plug this back into
:

I hope this helps!
I don't know how many paragraphs your professor needs you to develop, but if your essay consists on just 3 paragraphs (introduction, body and conclusion) your thesis is OK.
Now, if your essay needs to have, lets say 4 or 5 paragraphs (introduction, body 1, body 2, body 3, and conclusion) I'd recommend you to add two more details to your essay. For example,
Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness that deeply affects not only the patient's daily life, but also his family and friends.
paragraph 1 is to develop how schizophrenia affects the patient daily life only. Paragraph 2 is to develop how schizophrenia affects the patient's family and paragraph 3 to develop how it affects his or her family.
Don't forget to put examples, professors love when you put examples.
Good luck, and if you need help, you can ask me.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Sarah has $55
Her expenses are 3 shirts priced at $m each.
Total cost of 3 shirts at $m each would be the multiplication of each:
3 * m = 3m
The amount of money Sarah has left would be the total she had MINUS what she spent on 3 shirts. That would be:
Remaining Money = 55 - 3m
Your answer is 13,000
because the 9 is closer to the next digit than to 0
