Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
-22x=-4x+28
-18x=28
x=-28/18=-14/9
There's more ways than one to solve this, just as there's more ways than one to skin a cat.
Two paralle lines have the same slope, so the desired new line looks exactly like the given line 3x + 5y = 6, except that the constant, 6, is replaced by another value.
Write out 3x + 5y = c
Replace x with 0 and y with 3. Then 3(0) + 5(3) = c, and c = 15.
Thus, the equation of the new, parallel, line is 3x + 5y = 15.
Is there a graph for this problem?
2 2/3 = [(2*3)+2]/3 =8/3
(8/3)/5=8/(3*5)=8/15
