2x-3y=6
3y=2x-6
y=2/3x-2
Slope = 2/3

Therefore B

Answer:

B. 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope

We need to find the slope of the given line

2x-3y =6

Solve for y

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-2x-3y =-2x+6

-3y = -2x+6

Divide each side by -3

-3y/-3 = -2x/-3+6/-3

y = 2/3 x -2

This is in slope intercept form(y =mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 2/3

14a - (2a +9)=2/3 (12a-18)

Dmitrij [34]

Answer: a=-0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

14a - (2a +9)=2/3 (12a-18)

14a - 2a -9=2/3 * 6(2a-3)

12a-9=2*6/3 (2a-3)

12a-9=2*2(2a-3)

12a-9=4(2a-3)

12a-9=8a-12

4a-9=-12

4a=-3

a=-3/4

a=-0.75

A card game has 50 cards. After dealing 7 cards to each player, Tupi has 15 cards left over. Solve the equation 50 7p = 15 to fi

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

50 - 7p = 15....subtract 50 from both sides

-7p = 15 - 50

-7p = - 35...divide both sides by -7

p = -35/-7

p = 5 <=== there are 5 players
