Answer:

The equation of this line would be y = 3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this equation we must first find the slope of the original line. The original slope (the coefficient of x) is 3, which means the new slope will also be 3 because parallel lines have the same slope. Now, we can use this slope along with the point in point-slope form to find the equation of the line.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 7 = 3(x + 2)

y + 7 = 3x + 6

y = 3x - 1

1. When you measure the length of an object to the eighth of an inch and again to the fourth of an inch, which measurement is mo

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The eighth of an inch scale measures more precisely.

Step-by-step explanation:

An eighth of an inch means that one inch is divided into 8 equal lengths on the scale i.e. the minimum length that can be measured is $\frac{1}{8} =0.125$ inch.

Again a fourth of an inch means that one inch is divided into 4 equal lengths on the scale i.e. the minimum length that can be measured is $\frac{1}{4} =0.25$ inch.
