Answer:
2x - y - 7 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the slope of parallel line are same.
So, we can easily use formula,
y - y₁ = m ( x ₋ x₁)
where, (x₁, y₁) = (8, 9)
and m is a slope of line passing through (x₁, y₁).
and since the slope of parallel lines are same, so here we use slope of parallel line for calculation.
and, Slope = m =
here, (xₐ, yₐ) = (2, 7)
and,
⇒ m =
⇒ m = 2
Putting all values above formula. We get,
y - 9 = 2 ( x ₋ 8)
⇒ y - 9 = 2x - 16
⇒ 2x - y - 7 = 0
which is required equation.
Convert the fraction 3/4 to decimal form to get 3/4 = 0.75
To factor out 3/4, we divide each term by 3/4 or 0.75
It might be easier to divide by 0.75 to avoid two division symbols
So (3/4)z+6 = 0.75z+6
Divide each term (0.75z and 6) by 0.75 which is what we want to factor out
0.75z/0.75 = z
6/0.75 = 8
Therefore,
0.75z+6 = 0.75*(z+8)
Note how we can distribute the 0.75 back through to each term inside (z and 8) and we'll end up with 0.75z+6 again.
The answer in fraction form is
which is 3/4 outside the parenthesis multiplied by the group (z+8)
