The given equation is y + 2 = 4(x - 1)

The equation of the parallel line in the slope-intercept form is y = 4x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have

  • Same slopes
  • Different y-intercepts

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept

∵ The equation of the given line is y + 2 = 4(x - 1)

- Change its form to slope-intercept form to find its slope

∵ y + 2 = 4(x) - 4(1)

∴ y + 2 = 4x - 4

- Subtract 2 from both sides

∴ y = 4x - 6

- Compare it with the slope-intercept form to find m

∵ the slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

∴ m = 4

∵ The parallel lines have same slopes

∴ The slope of the parallel line is 4

- Substitute it in the form of the equation

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = 4x + b

- To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the

   coordinates of a point on the line

∵ The parallel line passes through point (1 , -3)

∴ x = 1 and y = -3

∵ -3 = 4(1) + b

∴ -3 = 4 + b

- Subtract 4 from both sides

∴ -7 = b

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = 4x + (-7)

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = 4x - 7

The equation of the parallel line in the slope-intercept form is y = 4x - 7

PLEASE HELP ;)<br> Who did it right?<br><br> Find the slope of the line perpendicular to 2x+3y=8
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Marissa.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find perpendicular slope you basically take the slope of the given line and reverse whatever sign it had previously. (If it was negative, it would become positive. If it was positive it would become negative.)

By doing -A/B it make the previous slope negative.

Brandon only flipped the fraction which would just result in the slope being slightly steeper, or in this case, less steep than the previous line, rather than making it perpendicular.

Hope this helps! Stay safe and if you have any questions feel free to ask!

Dave uses 5 gallons of gas to drive 140 miles on the highway. If he travels at the same rate, how many miles can he drive on 7 g
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

168 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If he uses 5 gallons to drive 140 miles, that means that he can drive 24 miles for every gallon (140/5=24)

7 times 24 is 168 so he can drive 168 miles on 7 gallons of gas
