Answer:
y = 4x + 2
4 is the slope and 2 is what y will be at x = 0.
Question: Elizabeth has 1 7/10 as many plants as Rosalie has in her garden. If Elizabeth has 51 plants, how many plants does Rosalie have in her garden?
Answer: X=30
explanation:
1 7/10 can be rewritten as 1.7
x=amount of plants that Rosalie has
x=1.7/51
x=30

Pick a value for 'x' then solve for the 'y'
Ex: X=6 then 6-2y=2 then 4=2y then y=2y
So your answer will be 6,2.
Another answer to your question would be 4,1.
The present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the present age of Jane be "x"
Let the present age of her sister be "y"
<em><u>Jane is 5 times older than her sister</u></em>
present age of Jane = 5(present age of her sister)
x = 5y ---------- eqn 1
<em><u>In 3 years, Jane’s sister will be 1/4 her age</u></em>
Age of sister after 3 years = 3 + y
Age of jane after 3 years = 3 + x
Age of sister after 3 years = 1/4(age of jane after 3 years)

Substitute eqn 1 in above equation

Substitute y = 9 in eqn 1
x = 5(9)
x = 45
Thus present age of Jane is 45 years old and present age of her sister is 9 years old
The slop would be 1/6.
you put it into slope intercept form (y=mx+b). parallel lines always have the same slope.
