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.

The way to determine this is to know that 1 foot is 12 inches (so 2 is 24) 
Now the ration that would determine the scale factor of the room is 1:24 (1 inch for every 24 inches)
So the scale factor is 1:24
Now to determine the area we multiply the numbers we have by 2 and change the inches to feet (I hope that makes sense to you, it does to me, I'll show you)
10.25 * 2 = 20.5 ft.
8 * 2 = 16 ft.
now we know the dimensions of the room so we need to find the area.
A=B*H
20.5 * 16 = 328
so the area of the room is 328 ft.²
