Hi there! The answer is y = -3x - 21

Let's set up the equation of the line step by step! First we need to know that we need to set up an equation in slope-intercept form. We get the following:

y = ax + b.
a represents the slope of the line.
b represents the intercept with the y-axis.

Since our new line is parallel to y = -3x + 1, both lines have the same slope. Therefore the slope of our line, which is represented by a, is -3.

y = -3x + b.
We also know that this line goes through the point (-5, -6) and therefore we can plug in these coordinates into our formula.

-6 = -3 × -5 + b
Simplify

-6 = 15 + b
Subtract 15

-21 = b
Switch sides

b = -21
Hence, y = -3x - 21

~ Hope this helps you!

Answer:

22,950

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 51,550 and 28,600. 0 - 0 = 0 then 5-0=5 5-6 you can not do so you barrow from the 1. 1 becomes 0 and 5 becomes 15. 15-6=9. 0-8 you can not do so you need to borrow from the 5. 5 becomes 4 and 0 becomes 10. 10-8=2. Finally, 4-2=2. Put is all together and you have 22,950.

Can someone please help mee.<br><br> use transformations to solve the equation.<br><br> 3 2/3x = 22
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

1. Note that

3\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{3\cdot 3+2}{3}=\dfrac{9+2}{3}=\dfrac{11}{3}.

2. Then the equation 3\dfrac{2}{3}x=22 can be rewritten

\dfrac{11}{3}x=22.

3. Solve it:

x=22:\dfrac{11}{3},\\ \\x=22\cdot \dfrac{3}{11}=2\cdot 3=6.

Answer: x=6
