Answer:

y= 2/3x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for linear graph is y=mx + c. Let's convert the equation of the parallel line to be same as the formula:

2x-3y= 12

-3y= 12 -2x

y= 2/3x-4

Parallel lines won't ever be met because a couple of parallel lines will have the same slope(m). We know how much m is (m=2/3), then we just need to find c. We can do it by adding the value of the coordinate that the line pass (-6, -5). The calculation will be:

y=mx + c

-5= (2/3) (-6) + c

c= -5 +4

c= -1

The equation will be:

y=mx + c

y= 2/3x-1

The box plots show the data distributions for the number of customers who used a coupon each hour for two days of a store sale.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can observe from the box plot the medians of both days.

The line in the middle of the box plot represents the median.

The median for Day 1 is: 6

The median for Day 2 is: 8

We have to find the difference between medians of both box plots so the difference is:

8 - 6 = 2

The difference between the medians is 2 ..

What is the standard form of the linear function that passes

babunello [35]

standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

$(\stackrel{x_1}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-2}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2}-\underset{x_1}{4}}}\implies \cfrac{-3}{-2}\implies \cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{3}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{4})$

$\stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{2}}{2(y-1)=2\left( \cfrac{3}{2}(x-4) \right)}\implies 2y-2 = 3(x-4)\implies 2y-2=3x-12 \\\\\\ -3x+2y-2=-12\implies -3x+2y=-10\implies \stackrel{\times -1\textit{ to both sides}}{3x-2y=10}$
