The equation y = x - 12 is only there to give you the slope. To write an equation of a line that is parallel to the given equation, the slopes have to be the same. (If the equation of a line is PERPENDICULAR to the given equation, the slope would be the opposite. For example, if the slope is positive 4, the new slope would be -1/4. If the slope is -2, the new slope is 1/2.)

You are using the equation y = mx + b

where m = slope, b = y-intercept

Since you know the slope of the given equation is just 1, you plug in 1 for m.

y = 1x + b or y = x + b

With the point P(10,3), you just plug it in to y = x + b to find "b" or the y-intercept.

3 = 10 + b

-7 = b

Your new equation is y = x - 7

a veterinarian needs to know animals weight in kilograms. if 20 pounds is about 9 kilograms and a dog weights 30 pounds, use a r
ahrayia [7]

For this case we have the following conversion:

20 pounds = 9 kilograms

To use the table what we must do is find another relationship that allows us to find the weight in kilograms for 30 pounds.

For example, half the weight in pounds is half the weight in kilograms.

Therefore, the given conversion is:

10 pounds = 4.5 kilograms

So, for 30 pounds, we multiply this last ratio obtained by three on both sides:

30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms

Then, the table is:

Pounds 10 20 30

kilograms 4.5 9 13.5

Answer:

Using the ratio table the dogs weight is:

30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms
