Answer:
Ez
Step-by-step explanation:
Change each number to an improper fraction.
Simplify if possible.
Multiply the numerators and then the denominators.
Put answer in lowest terms.
Check to be sure the answer makes sense.
y = 0.6x - 3.2
The general form of the desired equation is
y = mx + b
where
m = slope of the line
b = y intercept of the line
If two lines are parallel, their slopes will be the same, Since the slope of the
given line "y = 0.6x +3" is 0.6, that will also be the slope of the desired line.
So our equation becomes:
y = 0.6x + b
Now we can substitute the x and y value of the desired point we want the new line to pass through and find b. So
y = 0.6x + b
-5 = 0.6(-3) + b
-5 = -1.8 + b
-3.2 = b
So the desired equation is now
y = 0.6x - 3.2
Answer:
x=7.78
Step-by-step explanation:
142=10x+8x+2
Move all numbers with the same variables to each side to separate them.
142-2=10x+8x
140=18x
Divide by 18.
x= 140/18
x=7.78
