A line parallel to your equation has the same slope, so it should be in the form:
y = (-3/2)x + b
To figure what "b" has to be, plug in the point (4,0) and solve:
0 = (-3/2)*4 + b
0 = -6 + b
6 = b
So the equation of the line is:
y = (-3/2)x + 6
Answer: D. (-6,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x + 8
2x + y = -10
v
2x + x +8 = -10
x = -6
y = -6 + 8 ( plug in x (-6) )
y = 2
( x, y) = ( -6, 2)
Answer: 24 cups.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "x" the amount of cups of peaches that Fred will need to make 60 cups of fruit salad.
According to the information given in the exercise, you know that the ratio of cups of peaches to cups of cherries is the one shown below:

Which can also be written as a fraction:

Then, if he uses 2 cups of peaches and 3 cups of cherries, he will get 5 cups of fruit salad.
Knowing the above, you can set up the following proportion:

Now you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:
