They are the same. Example: If something costs 100$ and you found a coupon to get a 15% discount you will save: 15$ and your cost will be 100$-15$=85$ Hope this helped! Have a great day!

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x is $\mathbf{y=-\frac{2}{3}x+3 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x

The equation in slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$ where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Finding Slope:

The both equations given are parallel. So, they have same slope.

Slope of given equation y= - 2/3x is m = -2/3

This equation is in slope-intercept form, comparing with general equation $y=mx+b$ where m is slope , we get the value of m= -2/3

So, slope of required line is: m = -2/3

Finding y-intercept

Using slope m = -2/3 and point (-3,5) we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\5=-\frac{2}{3}(-3)+b\\5=2+b\\ b=5-2\\b=3$

So, we get b = 3

Now, the equation of required line:

having slope m = -2/3 and y-intercept b =3

$y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x+3$

The equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x is $\mathbf{y=-\frac{2}{3}x+3 }$

89.5%

This is because you move the decimal place by two places to the right whenever converting to a percentage.
