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)

A football coach gives half his players a protein bar to eat before each game; the other players do not receive the protein bar.
timofeeve [1]
To make the sure the results did not happen by chance, the coach can ensure that the protein bars are the only difference between the two groups. For example, he can make sure that both groups are drinking the same amounts of water and getting in the same amount of practice; that way, he will be able to determine that one group is performing better due to the protein bars only. Also, the coach can repeat this experiment multiple times to make sure that the results weren't a random, one-time thing.
