Answer:
I was at the store getting groceries I saw that there was a sell on bags of candy The original price was 4.00 dollars The sale is 1/2 off a bag of candy what is the new price. The answer is 2.00 dollars.
If Claudia jumped 10,000 ft. to sea level, then the answer would be -10,000. The reason is if she is going down then it would be negative.
The slope of the first equation has a slope of one and a y intercept of -4. The second equation has a y intercept of -2.3333 as seen when plugging in 0 for x, so the same y-intercept and same line are out of the question. This means either they have the same slope and thus are parallel or intersect at some point. A simple way to find out? Plug in 1 for x on the second. If it isn't -1.33333, which is a slope of positive 1 such as in the first equation, they WILL INTERSECT somewhere. When plugging in 1, we get
3y - 1 = -7
3y = -6
y = -2
(1, -2) is the next point after (0, -2.3333)
That means it is most certainly not the same slope, and thus they will intersect at some point. The two slopes are 1/1 and 1/3 if you weren't aware.
It is equivalent to:
-6 + (-8)
