Write an equation of a line parallel to the line

Mathematics
1 answer:
Airida [17]4 years ago
4 0

Answer: y = -2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The condition for parallelism is that m1 = m2 ie, the gradient of the two lines must be equal.

from the equation given,

y =  -2x  + 8, m1 = -2, therefore m2 = -2. Since the two line passes through the coordinate of (-1, -3 ) , we substitute  for x and y in the equation of a line

y = mx + c to get the value of  , the y - intersect.

-3 = -2 x -1 + c

-3 = 2 + c

solve for c

c = -3 - 2

c = -5.

now , to have the equation of the line , we put c = -7 into the equation

y = mx + c

y = -2x  - 5

Therefore the equation of the line parallel to the line

y = -2x + 8 is

y = -2x - 7

xenn [34]

Answer:

x = 9 or x = 0 or x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

3 x^3 - 21 x^2 - 54 x = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with four terms:

3 x (x - 9) (x + 2) = 0

Divide both sides by 3:

x (x - 9) (x + 2) = 0

Split into three equations:

x - 9 = 0 or x = 0 or x + 2 = 0

Add 9 to both sides:

x = 9 or x = 0 or x + 2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides:

Answer:  x = 9 or x = 0 or x = -2

The equation y= 12x-9 has its y-intercept at the point
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

-9

Its in the format y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the intercept. Also since x is 0 at the y intercept, you could substitute 0 for x and see the intercept
