Answer: y - 4 = -2(x - 5)</h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
Point slope form is
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point the line goes through.
Parallel lines have equal slopes but different y intercepts. The given equation y = -2x-3 has a slope of -2, meaning that m = -2 is also the slope of the mystery parallel line.
-2 will go in the second box that's just to the left of the parenthesis.
The coordinates of (5, 4) will go in the other remaining boxes to finish off the equation.
We go from this
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
to this
y - 4 = -2(x - 5)
The ratio here is 16:436.
The easiest way to solve this is finding how many miles Jim can drive using just 1 gallon. We can do this by dividing both sides of the ratio by 16.
16÷16 is 1
436÷16 is 27.25
so our new ratio is 1 gallon:27.25 miles.
next we simply multiply both sides by 14.
1x14=14
27.25x14=381.5 miles :)
