Passing through (-6,-1) and parallel to y=-2/3x +1

Hello!

To find the line parallel to the line y = -2/3x + 1 and passing through the point (-6, -1), we will need to know that if two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equivalent to each other.

Since we are given the slope, we need to find the y-intercept of the line. We can find the y-intercept by substituting the point (-6, -1) into a new equation with the slope of m = -2/3. Remember that slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.

y = -2/3x + b (substitute the ordered pair)

-1 = -2/3(-6) + b

-1 = 4 + b (subtract 4 from both sides)

-5 = b

Therefore, the equation of the line passing through the point (-6, -1) and parallel to y = -2/3x + 1 is y = -2/3x - 5.

Which transformations will produce similar but not congruent figures
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The third one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because all the other ones does a transformation that doesn't change the size of the figure. The third one is dilated, which means that the original figure is being made smaller or bigger. So the final result will be different from the original figure.

-2(4х + 4) — 3х – 2 = 34<br> Find x
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the -2 into the parentheses and your equation becomes -8x - 8 - 3x - 2 = 34

Then combine the -8x and -3x as well as the -8 and -2 to have -11x - 10 = 34

Add 10 to both sides and get -11x = 44

Divide both sides by -11 for x=-4

Consider an election with 681 votes a) If there are 5 candidates, what is the smallest number of first-place votes a candidate c
joja [24]

Answer:

137 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

considering an election with 681 votes and 5 candidates up for the election

dividing the votes among'st 5 candidates

= 681 / 5 = 136.2  hence the least number of first-place votes needed by a candidate using the plurality method  would be = 137 votes

136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 = 681 ( dividing the votes equally )

136 + 136 + 136 + 136+136 = 680

hence the remaining vote = 681 - 680 = 1

least first-place vote = 136 + 1 = 137 votes
