Answer:

Unfortunately I can't read your answer options properly. The copied text is just too messed up. But hopefully the step-by-step calculation will help you.

Lemme know if it worked for you and if you have further questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2y = -6

can be rewritten as

2y = 3x + 6

or simpler

y = 1.5x + 3

we know that it's parallel to this line, but we don't know how much lower or higher the new line will be, so let's set "+3" as an unknown variable.

y = 1.5x + b

(the letter b is now what we try to solve for)

now let's plug in the x-/y-Informations of the given point

2 = 1.5 * 4 + b

2 = 6 + b

-4 = b

so the new line is

y = 1.5x -4

(the given point lies on that line and it's parallel to the other line)

let's multiply everything by two to get closer to the original format

2y = 3x -8

it could also be expressed as

2y = -(-3x+8)

(in hope that this may help for choosing an answer option)

please clean up the text of questions before posting next time

(would really appreciate the brainliest)

Kylie has 14 polished stones. Her friend gives her 6 more stones. Write an expression to match the words
Elis [28]
An expression is like an equation, but without an equal sign.

Therefore, you could say...

14 stones + 6 stones

or just...

14 + 6
