Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents the slope of the line

c represents the y intercept

The equation of the given line is

2x + 4y = 20

4y = - 2x + 20

Dividing through by 4, it becomes

y = - x/2 + 5

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = - 1/2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 6, 3) is - 1/2

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = - 1/2, x = - 6 and y = 3 into y = mx + c. It becomes

3 = - 1/2 × - 6 + c

3 = 3 + c

c = 3 - 3 = 0

The equation becomes

y = - x/2

Solve a=2b-c for b<br><br> Can someone help me
Sauron [17]

Answer:

b=\frac{a}{2} +\frac{c}{2}

Explanation:

While solving literal equations could be quite overwelhming, simply solve it by using normal equation solving methods.

For example, if you were to solve 2x + 3 = 9

You would add 3 on both sides and divide both sides by 2 to determine x.

Do the same thing for literal equations, and if in doubts, plug in numbers to check your work.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, add c on both sides, we do this because we are aiming to eliminate the c from both sides.

a+c =2b

In order to find the value of b, divide both sides by 2, we do this because we want to get rid of the coefficient.

This should leave you with the answer of b=a/2 + c/2
