Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These lines are parallel since they both have the slope of 3.  Then it becomes a matter of seeing how far their y-intercepts are from one another.  That is the distance between them, and will be the distance between them for the entire length of each line since parallel lines remain the same distance apart forever.  The first line has a y-intercept of 6 and the second line has a y-intercept of -2.  From 6 to 0 is 6, then add another 2 units to get a grand total of 8 units apart.  Since distance is a measure of length and length will never be negative, we are not subtracting here.  We are simply counting the number of units between each y-intercept.  And it doesn't have to be the y-intercept.  Every point on the first line is 8 units above every point on the second line.

Answer:

y = 2(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because Gavin representing "x" loses 3 marbles, which is shown by the -3 in the parenthesis, is half of what Cindy has, or as the problem says "Cindy has double the marbles that Gavin has." These two together result in y=2(x-3)

Sliva [168]

Hi there!

A valley farmer has 26 employees and he pays each of them $410 per week.

After paying them for one week he has $162 dollars left. We need to find how much money he had at first.

So the first step is to multiply $410 on 26 since he gives 410 dollars to each employee, which he has 26.

$410 · 26 = $10,660

So he had $10,660 before he paid the workers, but he still had $162 left. To find out his overall total of money he had we need to add $10,660 and $162 which will be $10,822.

The farmer had $10,822

Hope this helped!~
