Answer:

y = 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of a line, you need 2 things:

1) gradient/slope

2) 1 set of x and y coordinates

To find the slope:

If 2 lines are parallel, they have exactly the same gradient.

So, this line will have a slope of 2 as well (the slope of a line is the coefficient of x in the equation).

To find the equation of the line:

<u>Start with this generic equation:</u>

y - y1 = m (x-x1)

<u>We know that:</u>

(x1, y1) -> (-2, -1) and m= 2

<u>So, we can substitute for the equation:</u>

y- (-1) = 2 (x -(-2))

<u>Simplify, by expanding the brackets:</u>

y + 1= 2 (x+2)

y + 1 = 2x + 4

<u>Rearrange for y:</u>

y = 2x + 3

To double check:

1) The coefficient of x is the slope, we have 2x and the slop is 2, so that's correct

2) Sub in x= -2, and you should get y=-1

y = -4 + 3 = -1, so that's correct too

Hope that helped : )

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

<u>262,144</u> goes in the blank

Step-by-step explanation:

8^6 = 262,144

4^11 = 4,194,304

4,194,304 + 262,144 = 4,456,448

4,456,448 ÷ 17 = 262,144

yawa3891 [41]

Answer: He will have 3,200 in 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation: This is because 4% of $400 is 160, and if you multiply that by 5 you get 800, then you just subtract that from the total amount and you get your final answer.
