Answer:

y = - 3x - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x + y = 6 into this form

Subtract 3x from both sides

y = - 3x + 6 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 6, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = 18 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 18 = - 19

y = - 3x - 19 ← is the equation of the parallel line

your formula will ALWAYS be Y=MX+B

3x + Y = 6

subtract 3x from each side

Y = -3x + 6

you’ll use rise over run, 1/3 will be your ratio.

The perimeter of a trapezoid is 39a – 7. Three sides have the following lengths: 9a, 5a + 1, and 17a – 6. What is the length of
Airida [17]
We know the perimeter is the total sum of all sides of the shape, we can use this to form an equation: the perimeter=1st side + 2nd side + 3rd side + 4th side 39a-7=9a+(5a+1)+(17a-6)+4th side.
Collect like terms to get 39a-7=31a-5+4th side
If we move everything but the 4th side over to the left we can solve 
C. 8a-2=4th side is the correct answer

jill's fish weighs 8 times as much as her parakeet. together, the pets weigh 63 ounce. how much does the fish weigh?
andriy [413]
<span><span>1.       </span>Jill’s fish weighs 8 times as much as her parakeet.
Together they weigh 63 ounce.
Find the weight of the fish.
=> Jill’s Fish = 8x
=> Parakeet = x
Equation:
=> 8x + x = 63
=> 9x = 63
=> 9x / 9 = 63 / 9
=> 7 ounce
Thus the weight of fish = 8(7)
=> 56 ounce
Which is 8 times as much as parakeet which is 7
=> 56 + 7 = 63 ounce</span>
