Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal

The equation of the given line is

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+4

the slope is m=-\frac{1}{3}

so

the slope of the parallel line to the given line is also m=-\frac{1}{3}

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (6, 5)

we have

m=-\frac{1}{3}

point\ (6,5)

The equation of the line in point slope form is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y-5=-\frac{1}{3}(x-6)

Convert to slope intercept form

y=mx+b

isolate the variable y

y-5=-\frac{1}{3}x+2

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+2+5

y=-\frac{1}{3}x+7

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

x= 50

Step-by-step explanation:

7/x = 14/100

14x = 700

x = 50

the reason behind my calculations were to get the same ratios and because they gave us percentage and the actual number, we can set them; 14 percent 14/100, however, the 7/x is because we don't know the 100 percent of the coins which is what we look for. Therefore, you cross multiply and get x.

I hope this helped
