Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

eq. of line parallel to AB is y=2x+a

if it passes through (3,-2) then

-2=2×3+a

a=-2-6=-8

y=2x-8

Answer:

y = 2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

The equation of the given line, AB is

y = 2x + 4

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = 2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (3, -2) is 2

To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = 2, x = 3 and y = -2 into y = mx + c. It becomes

- 2 = 2×3 + c = 6 + c

c = - 2 - 6 = - 8

The equation becomes

y = 2x - 8

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-1, 4) and is parallel
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y + 2x = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

The original line is 2x + y = 1

We must first write the equation in the general form above

That's

y = - 2x + 1

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = - 2

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = - 2

So the equation of the line using point

( - 1 , 4) and slope - 2 is

<h3>y - 4 =  - 2(x + 1) \\ y - 4 =  - 2x - 2 \\ y + 2x =  - 2 + 4</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>y + 2x = 2</h3>

Hope this helps you

When a number x is divided by 24 the remainder is 23 and when it is divided by 36 the remainder is 35. Find the least number tha
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

7 is the answer. If a number can be divided by 36 then it can also be divided by 12 which is 3*12 therefor the remainder will be 19-12 which is 7. When 19 is divided by 36, the remainder is 19 and so 19 must be a number. When 19 is divided by 12 the remainder is 7.
