Answer:
y = 5/3x -7/3
Step-by-step explanation:
parallel lines will have the same slope
m = 5/3, point (2, 1)
use point-slope form to find the new equation for the parallel line
y - 1 = 5/3(x - 2)
y = 5/3x - 10/3 + 1
y = 5/3x -7/3
Answer: 36/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y + 6 = (-8/5)(x - 1) in point-slope form
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving from the 1st point to the first, we see that x (the 'run') increases by 5 from -4 to 1, and y (the 'rise') decreases by 8. Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise / run = -8/5
Now we have two points on the line, plus the slope. Let's write out the point-slope formula for the equation of a straight line:
y - k = m(x - h), where (h, k) is a point on the line and m is the slope of the line.
Here, using the point (1, -6), we obtain:
y + 6 = (-8/5)(x - 1) in point-slope form
Answer:
substitute 8 into x =(8-2)2
(6)2=12
