We can rearrange 3x+y=9 to look more conventional by subtracting 3x from both sides and making it y= -3x+9.
Now we want to find a line that is parallel to this and goes through the point (0,-4). We know that -3 is the slope. With this in mind, if we want the other line to be parallel then it must have the same slope so that they never intersect. This gives us one of the numbers we need for the second line.
This means our second equation is looking like; y= -3x+b. This means we need to find b (the y-intercept) but we are also given a point it must go through and this is (0,-4). We simply plug this in into our new equation we need to solve and we get ; -4 = -3(0) + b . "since 0 is the x and -4 is the y" . From this we get that b= -4. This means the equation of a line parallel is:
y = -3x-4
Answer: 157.5
Step-by-step explanation: To get the volume of an object you must multiply the width x height ÷ it by 2 x length
Therefore 7 x 5 = 35 ÷ 2 = 17.5
17.5 x 9 = 157.5
That is not correct. I will help you. Begin by subtracting the 9x from both sides, like this: 9x - 9x + 2y = 6 - 9x. That simplifies to 2y = -9x + 6. Now divide both sides by 2 to get y all alone, like this:
. That reduces down to
. That is slope-intercept form. y = mx + b.
