Answer:
y = x/2 - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find the slope of the given equation: x - 2y = 8
Subtract x from both sides
x - 2y = 8
- x - x
-2y = 8 - x
Divide both sides by -2
-2y/-2 = (8 - x)/-2
y = -4 + x/2
The slope of this equation is 1/2
So the equation of our parallel equation is y = x/2 + b
We have to find b, so plug in the given coordinates
-6 = 2/2 + b
-6 = 1 + b
Subtract 1 from both sides
-6 = 1 + b
- 1 - 1
b = -7
Plug it back into the original equation
y = x/2 - 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
e^ lnx = x
e^ ln5 = 5
e^ ln 3x = 3x
I think you get the idea... e is an inverse operation to ln :o
Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x-4)=6x-6
2x-8=6x-6
2x-6x-8=-6
-4x-8=-6
-4x=-6+8
-4x=2
x=2/-4
simplify
x=-1/2
