First find the slope of the given line like this:

If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope, so the equation we are looking for is in the form:

and we have to find b using the given point like this:
Substitute x = -2 and y=4 in the above equation like this and solve for a:
The equation of the line is then the following:
Answer:
○ -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking closely at this piecewise function, when the line on the left-hand side intersects at <em>-</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em> </em>is -1.
I hope this helps, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.
First you would subtract 30 from both sides
they divide each side by 5 to get -7
y =-7
Answee:
We have these two equations:
-2x +4y =-22
2x + 8y -26
We need to try to get the same number multiplying both x or y, I think we can make the 2 of the first equation negative, for that, we multiply all the equation by -1:
2x + 8y =-26 ---- -2x - 8y =26
Now we have this:
-2x +4y = -22
-2x -8y = 26
Now e substract both equations:
-2x - (-2x) +4y -(-8y) = -22-26
12y = -48
Y = -48/12 = -4
And we replace to get x
-2x + 4y = -22
-2x +4*(-4)=-22
-2x - 16 = -22
x= -6/-2 =3
