Well, for a line with a slope of 3/4, any other parallel line to it, will also have the same slope of 3/4

so if the line through (2, -1) is parallel to it, it has a slope of 3/4 as well

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ -1}})\quad 

\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{3}{4}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{plug in the values for }
\begin{cases}
y_1=-1\\
x_1=2\\
m=\frac{3}{4}
\end{cases}\\
\textit{and move everything}\\
\textit{to the left-hand-side}
\end{array}\\

\left. \qquad   \right. \uparrow\\
\textit{point-slope form}

Look at the graph shown:
NNADVOKAT [17]
We are going to base the answer off of the y=mx+b form where m represents slope and b represents the y-intercept.

First, we know that b must be -1 because the line hits the y-axis when y is -1
So this leaves us with either the first or second choice

Then we choose two points to find the slope. I am using (0,-1) and (1,2). If you count the boxes, the y-value increases by 3 as the x-value increases by 1. So the slope is 3/1 or 3.

So then we know the answer is y=3x-1

Hope this helps

If QS bisects PQT, SQT=(8x- 25),PQT=(9x+34), and SQR=112, find each measure.
Goryan [66]

The values of the angles are; x = 12°, m∠PQS = 71°, m∠PQT = 142° and m∠TQR = 41°

<h3>What are the measure of the each angle?</h3>

The required angles; x, m∠PQS, m∠PQT, and m∠TQR

The given parameters are bisects ∠PQT

m∠SQT = (8·x - 25)°

m∠PQT = (9·x + 34)°

m∠SQR = 112°

We have;

m∠PQT = m∠SQT + m∠PQS (Angle addition postulate)

m∠SQT ≅ m∠PQS (Angles formed by angle bisector are congruent)

m∠SQT = m∠PQS  by Definition of congruency

m∠PQT = 2 × m∠SQT

Therefore;

(9·x + 34)° = 2 × (8·x - 25)° = (16·x - 50)°

Collecting like terms gives:

(34 + 50)° = 16·x - 9·x = 7·x

7·x = 84°

x = 84°/7 = 12°

x = 12°

m∠SQT = (8·x - 25)°

Therefore;

m∠SQT = (8 × 12 - 25)° = 71°

m∠SQT = 71°

m∠PQT = 2 × m∠SQT

∴ m∠PQT = 2 × 71° = 142°

m∠PQT = 142°

m∠PQS = m∠SQT (Angles formed by the same bisector )

∴ m∠PQS = m∠SQT = 71°

m∠PQS = 71°

m∠SQR = m∠SQT + m∠TQR (Angle addition postulate)

m∠SQT = 71°

∴  m∠SQR = 112° = 71° + m∠TQR

m∠TQR = 112° - 71° = 41°

m∠TQR = 41°
