Answer:

y=1x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the general slope-intercept equation of a line, which is defined as:

(y-b)=m*(x-a), where:

(a,b) is a point belonging to the line, and, m is the line's slope.

The equation for the given line is:

y=x+11, which can be re-written as:

(y-11)=1(x-0)

This means that the slope of this line is m=1, and that a point belonging to the line is (0,11).

Since parallel lines are defined as lines with the same slope, then for the second line, we need to establish m=1.

Becuase the point (-6,2) is a point belonging to the second line, then we can express the general equation (y-b)=m*(x-a) as:

(y-2)=1(x-(-6)) which we can re-write as:

y=1(x-(-6))+2

y=1x+6+2

y=1x+8

In conclusion, the equation of a line that passes through the point (-6,2) and is parallel to the given line, can be described by the following equation in its slope-intercept form: y=1x+8.

Line parallel to y=x+11 so slopes are equal then
y= x+b
Passing through the point C (-6;2) then C belongs to this line
yc=xc+b
b= 6+2
b= 8
So y intercept is equal to 8

Eliminate 3x+2y=4<br> 8x-3y=-6
laila [671]
Steps:
1. Multiply the first line by 3 and the second by 2
3(3x + 2y= 4)
2(8x -3y=-6)
2. New lines are
9x + 6y= 12
16x + -6y=-12
3. Now add/subtract them
25x + 0= 0
25x=0
4. Divide by 25
X=0

5. To find y, substitute the 0 in the x in one of the equations
9x + 6y= 12
9(0) + 6y= 12
6y= 12
6. Divide by 6, your Y=2
7. X=0, Y=2

If nine times a certain number is subtracted from 7 the result is 52. Find the number.
mezya [45]

Answer:

Let the number to find be x

7 - 9x = 52

-9x = 52-7

- 9x = -45

Divide by - 9

x = 5

The number is 5

Hope this helps.

a 36 inch board is to be cut into three pieces so that the piece is twice as long as the first piece and the third piece is 3 ti
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

First piece = 6 inches

Second piece = 12 inches

Third piece = 18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the first piece = x

Length of the second piece = 2x

Length of the third piece = 3x

Total length is 36 inches:

x + 2x + 3x = 36

6x = 36

x = 6

Therefore, the lengths are:

First piece = 6 inches

Second piece = 12 inches

Third piece = 18 inches
