Answer:

The parallel line would be y = -x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the parallel line, we must first start with the slope. The slope of parallel lines must be equal. The first line has a slope of -1. Using this and the new point in slope intercept form, we can solve for the intercept.

y = mx + b

2 = -1(-8) + b

2 = 8 + b

-6 = b

Now we can model the equation using that slope and the intercept.

y = -x - 6

How much less than 3x^2−7x+9 is 2x^2+4x−8 ?<br> Thanks!!
maks197457 [2]
Simplify.
3x^2−7x+9 - 2x^2+4x−8

1. 3x^2-2x^2 = x
2. -7x + 4x = -3x
3. 9 - 8 = 1

Combine.
x -3x +1

Thus, 2x^2+4x−8 is x -3x +1 less than 3x^2−7x+9

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

69 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let year of birth = x

This year = 2020

Year of 25th birthday = x + 25

Year of 55th birthday = x + 55

Present age = 2020 - x

Hence,

x + 2020 - (x + 25 + x + 55) + (2020 - x) = 58

x + 2020 - (2x + 80) + (2020 - x) = 58

x + 2020 - 2x - 80 + 2020 - x = 58

-2x + 4040 - 80 = 58

-2x + 3960 = 58

-2x = 58 - 3960

-2x = - 3902

x = 1951

Birth year = 1951

,

Hence, age =

2020 - 1951 = 69 years
