According to Cody's claim, when 1/6 is multiplied by a negative number, the results will always be less than 1/6. This is true because the result would be a negative number. A negative number is always lesser than a positive number. For example, if 1/6 is multiplied by -1, the result would be - 1/6. If 1/6 is multiplied by -10, the result would be - 1/60. 1/6 is multiplied by -20, the result would be - 1/-120. The results of - 1/6, - 1/60 and - 1/120 would always be on the left of the zero point on a number line while 1/6 will always be on the right side of zero on the number line. Numbers on the right side of zero are always greater than numbers on the left side of zero on the number line.
Y = -3x + 6....the slope here is -3. A parallel line will have the same slope.
y = mx + b slope(m) = -3 (-4,7)....x = -4 and y = 7 now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int 7 = -3(-4) + b 7 = 12 + b 7 - 12 = b -5 = b so ur parallel equation is : y = -3x - 5 <==
