Step-by-step explanation:
We just have to remember the line equation <u>y=mx+b</u>
, then place the given equation into this form (y= -3x-6).
Remember that (m) is your slope. So, to find a parallel line, they must have an equal slope. Check the other equations and see which one had a slope of -3. The answer C also has a slope of -3. So those lines would be parallel.
Use what we know to make equations in order to solve for each governor's salary.
A=governor of state A
B=governor of state B
A+b=283,910. (Their salaries combined)
A=B+50,440 (A earns 50,440 more than B)
Sub A into the original formula to solve for B
B+50,440+b=283,910
2B=283,910-50,440
2B=233,470
B=116,730
Sub B into the formula that's equal to A
A=B+50,440
A=116,735+50,440
A=167,175
I hope this helps!
Answer: 220
Step-by-step explanation: Use distributive propetry and PEMDAS to solve.
The length is 8 and the width is 4
P = L + L + W + W
P = 8 + 8 + 4 + 4
P = 16 + 4 + 4
P = 16 + 8
P = 24
