Answer:

y = -2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation if the line be y = mx + c

since the line is parallel to y = -2x - 8, their gradients/slope must be the same (aka m = -2)

sub (-4, 3):

3 = -2(-4) + c

c = -5

therefore, the equation of the line is y = -2x - 5

This is a question on coordinate geometry. If you wish to venture further into it/understand this topic better, you may want to follow my Instagram account (learntionary), where I post some of my own notes on certain topics and also some tips that may be useful to you :)

A boat costs $19,200 and decreases in value by 12%. How much will devote be worth after 5 years?
saveliy_v [14]

We can start by multiplying $19,200 by 12%. This is 2304. Subtract 19,200 from 2304 and you get 16,896. We could have also received this answer by multiplying by 88%. This would have given us 16,896. So we can use this equation: (((((19,200*88%)88%)88%)88%)88%)=$1011.08.


Hope this helped!
