Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Let the unknown number be x. Then;

According to the question;

3x+4= -8

3x = -12

x = -12/3

Therefore, x = -4

Check:

3*-4 +4 = -8

-12+4 = -8

-8= -8 (True).

Line AB passes through A(-3, 0) and B(-6, 5). What is the equation of the line that passes through the origin and is parallel to
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

3y+5x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on equations of parallel lines

Finding the gradient m of line AB

m=change in y coordinates/change in x-co-ordinates

Given points A(-3,0) and B (-6,5)

m=Δy/Δx  Δy=5-0=5      Δx=-6 - -3= -3  ⇒m= - 5/3

Equation

The line will have its gradient equal to - 5/3

m=-5/3  

point is the origin (0,0)

m=Δy/Δx

y-0/x-0 = -5/3

3(y-0)=-5(x-0)

3y-0= -5x+0

3y=-5x

3y+5x=0
