Answer:
y + 2 = (x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
y - 4 = (x - 3) ← is in point- slope form
with slope m =
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus equation of parallel line
with m = and (a, b) = Q(1, - 2) is
y - (- 2) = (x - 1) , that is
y + 2 = (x - 1)
The solution of the equation is
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify an equation of x
∵ The equation is
- Multiply all terms of the equation by 4 to cancel the denominator
of the 2nd term in the left hand side
∵ The equation is
∴ 8x + (1 - x) = 12
∴ 8x + 1 - x = 12
- Add like terms
∴ (8x - x) + 1 = 12
∴ 7x + 1 = 12
- Subtract 1 from both sides
∴ 7x = 11
- Divide both sides by 7
∴
The solution of the equation is
