Answer:
y = 2x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have SIMILAR <em>RATE OF</em><em> </em><em>CHANGES</em><em> </em>[<em>SLOPES</em>], so 2 remains the same:
8 = 2[8] + b
↑
16
-8 = b
y = 2x - 8 >> Parallel Equation
I am joyous to assist you anytime.
Let x = times in the pool
Let y = times in the basketball courts
42=3x+5y
x+y=12
Therefore y = 12-x
Subsitute for y
42 = 3x + 5(12-x)
42 = 3x + 60 -5x
Subtract 60
-18 = -2x
9 = x
The person used the pool 9 times.
E) distributive property
Because you are distributing the 3 to 2/5x and 7/5y
