Find the slope of a line parallel to 2x-y=18

Mathematics

True [87]3 years ago

Answer:

The slope of line parallel to 2x-y = 18 will be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  

The equation of a line : 2x – y = 18

The standard form of an equation of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+c

So, we will have to convert the given equation in the standard form.

2x-y=18

-y=-2x+18

-y= -(2x-18)

y=2x-18

The coefficient of x in this form is the slope of the line.

So,

m_1=2

We know that slopes of two parallel lines are equal so if the given line has slope 2, all the lines parallel to this line have slope 2..

For this case, we have by definition, if two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal:

m_ {1} = m_ {2}

We have the following equation:2x-y = 18

We rewrite the equation of the form:

y = mx + b\\2x-18 = y\\y = 2x-18

Thus, a parallel line will have a slope m_ {2} = 2

Answer:

m_ {2} = 2

Goshia [24]

Answer:

4 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

first i subtracted 1.3 from 4 and got 2.7

Next i just multiplied 0.6 by random numbers ubtil i got something close to 2.7

i ended up with 2.4 when I multiplied 0.6 by 4

it still is .3 short

since it takes an hour for the candle to burn, then if you cut it in half, that means 30 minutes

therfore, 4.5 hours
