Slope-intercept form:  y = mx + b

(m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 --> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis)

For lines to be parallel, they need to have the same slope.

y - 3x = 2      Add 3x on both sides to change the equation to slope-intercept form

y - 3x + 3x = 2 + 3x

y = 3x + 2   The slope is 3, so the parallel line's slope is also 3.

Now that you know the slope, substitute/plug it into the equation

y = mx + b

y = 3x + b    To find "b", plug in the point (6, 1) into the equation, then isolate/get the variable "b" by itself

1 = 3(6) + b  

1 = 18 + b     Subtract 18 on both sides to get "b" by itself

1 - 18 = 18 - 18 + b

-17 = b

y = 3x - 17    Your answer is the 1st option

Answer:

y=3x-17

Step-by-step explanation:

You first get y by its and you do this by adding 3x to both sides of the equal sign. You should then get y=3x+2 and then to find the parallel line, the x should stay the same as the first equation so that takes out the -3x. Then you continue to draw the line down until you get a y-intercept which turns out to be 17. You also know that the y-intercept is going to be negative so that takes out the two 19's.

Write the equation in standard form of a line that is parallel to the graph of 2x + y = 5 and whose y - intercept is (0,4).
babunello [35]

The line that is parallel to this line will have the same slope of this line, as the two will never intersect. They will run side by side. The line y = 2x - 5 is written in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b. The value of m represents the slope, and in this equation m = 2. Therefore, the line we are looking for will have a slope of 2 also.

That line should also be in slope-intercept form. We now know the value of m, but we also know the value of x and y. The ordered pair (8, 10) is a point on the line, and every ordered pair is in the form (x, y). Therefore, x = 8 and y = 10. We can plug those values into y = mx + b, along with m = 2. That gives us:

10 = 2(8) + b We need to solve for b.

10 = 16 + b

b = -6

What is the missing justification in the proof?
nataly862011 [7]
The missing justification in the proof is
<span>B) Substitution property of equality

The expression for sin</span>² x and cos² x is substituted to the other side of the equation. Since sin x = a/c, then sin² x = a²/c². Similarly, since cos x = b/c, then cos² x = b²/c². Adding to two results to the third statement.
