Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  -  \frac{3}{5} x + 13</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

The original line is 3x + 5y = 11

We must first write the equation in the general equation above

So we have

5y = - 3x + 11

Divide both sides by 5

<h3>y =  -  \frac{ 3}{5} x +  \frac{11}{5}</h3>

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = - 3/5

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = - 3/5

So the equation of the line using point

(15, 4) and slope - 3/5 is

<h3>y - 4 =  -  \frac{3}{5} (x - 15) \\y - 4 =  -  \frac{3}{5} x + 9 \\ y =  -  \frac{3}{5} x + 9 + 4</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>y =  -  \frac{3}{5} x + 13</h3>

Hope this helps you

Answer:

here is the ANSWER-Connie : 1min = 200 words

Felicia : 1min = 260 words

Stew : 1 min = 265 words (8min = 2120 words, and 7min = 1855 words, so you minus 2120 - 1855 = 265 words)

You multiply 55.25 by 0.18. You get 9.945 and then you add it to 55.25. You should get 65.195. Round it to $65.20. That's your answer.

If (x – 4) + 6 = 2 - (4 - 2x), then x =<br> A. -4<br> B. -2<br> C. 2<br> D. 4
blondinia [14]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove the parentheses and turn the 4-2x and make it into 4+2x candle the equal term -4 and should be left with x+6=2+2x then move the variable to the left and change the sign so it would be x-2x=2-6 and collect like terms so it would be -x=2-6 and then calculate that and get -x= -4

(sorry its alot)
