Answer:
y = -2x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation if the line be y = mx + c
since the line is parallel to y = -2x - 8, their gradients/slope must be the same (aka m = -2)
sub (-4, 3):
3 = -2(-4) + c
c = -5
therefore, the equation of the line is y = -2x - 5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9x - 1 / 2 + 9/2 x = 0.128886 (43)
2 / 5x - 1b = 4/3 - 1 - 1 = 2x (4)
= x1 + 24 - 3/4 + 8
9/3 - 1 x = /3
A = l × w. Substitute 72 into A and fill in the rest of the equation.
w = l - 1. Plug l - 1 into w
72 = l × (l - 1). Multiply l by (l - 1)
72 = l^2 - l. Subtract 72 from each side.
0 = l^2 - l - 72. Factor.
0 = (l + 8) (l - 9). Set each term equal to zero.
(l + 8) = 0. Subtract 8 from each side.
l = -8. Length cant be a negative number so let's try the other term.
(l - 9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.
l = 9. The length is 9.
Earlier we stated that the width is one less than the length, therefore, the width is 9 - 1 = 8.
The width is 8 units.
