Answer:

y = 2/3x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel, that means their slopes are the same.

Rewrite 2x - 3y = 15 to y = 2/3x - 5

The slope is 2/3, so the answer should have a slope of 2/3 as well.

The equation is now y = 2/3x + b

To find b, substitute (-3,4)

y = 2/3x + b

4 = 2/3(-3) + b

4 = -2 + b

6 = b

So the equation is y = 2/3x + 6

Find the area of this circle please…Use 3 for pi

ZanzabumX [31]

Given:

The radius of circle is 11 inch

The value for pi is 3

The objective is to find the area of the circle.

The area of the circle is given by the formula:

$A=\pi\times r^2^{}$

Substituting ,r = 11

$\pi=3$

We get:

$\begin{gathered} A=\pi\times r^2 \\ =3\times(11)^2 \\ =3\times121 \\ =363 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the area of the circle is 363 square inches
