Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a twice number, x, and twice another number, y, is -78.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, parallel lines have the same slope, so the slopes should be the same , and then you use the given point to find the y intercept
EX:
y=x+1
find equation of line the is parallel and passes through (1, 1)
Same slope, so y=x+b
then plug in the point
1=1+b
b=0
our line would be y=x
1. Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept. To answer this question, plug in the values they have given you.
y=mx+b
y=1/4x-5
2. To write an equation in slope-intercept form when given two points, use m=y2-y1/x2-x1
Remember: in an ordered pair, x comes first then y.
Plug the y- and x-values in. So, y2=6, y1=2 and x2=-2, x1=9
6-(-)2/-2-9= - 4/11.
The slope of your next equation would be m= - 4/11
