The answer is 5/4 in

The initial length:
1 ft = 12 in
8 ft = 8 * 12 in
      = 96 in

The final length:
7 ft 10 3/4 in = 7 ft + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 7 * 12 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 84 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 94 in + 3/4 in

The cut if the initial length - final length:
96 in - 94 in - 3/4 in = 2 in - 3/4 in = 8/4 in - 3/4 in = 5/4 in

Find the slope-intercept form of an equation for the line that passes through (–1, 2) and is parallel to y = 2x – 3.
sammy [17]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut point with the y axis.

By definition, if two straight lines are parallel then their slopes are equal. Thus, the slope of the line sought will be m = 2.

y = 2x + b

We substitute the given point to find b:

2 = 2 (-1) + b\\2 = -2 + b\\2 + 2 = b\\b = 4

Finally the line is:

y = 2x + 4

Answer:

y = 2x + 4

madreJ [45]
Paralell is smae slope so it is
2x+3y=c
find c

given
(9,-3)
x=9
y=-3
evaluate to find the constant, c

2(9)+3(-3)=c
18-9=c
9=c

the equation is 2x+3y=9
