(3/4) /(4/5) = x/1
cross multiply
4/5x = 3/4
x = 3/4 * 5/4
x = 15/16 tons of pebbles are needed to cover the entire garden
First, we find the slope of the given line.
<span>3x − 4y = 7
-4y = -3x + 7
y = (3/4)x - 7/4
The slope of the given line is 3/4.
The slope of the parallel line is also 3/4.
Now we need the equation of the line that has slope 3/4 and passes through point (-4, -2),
We use the point-slope form of the equation of a line.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - (-2) = (3/4)(x - (-4))
y + 2 = (3/4)(x + 4) <---- check option E. Is the fraction 3/4 not there?
y + 2 = (3/4)x + 3
y = (3/4)x + 1
4y = 3x + 4
3x - 4y = -4 <------ this is choice B.

Answer:
Slope= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Rise over run
2 to the right 2 down = 2/-2
Simplify to -1
If you would like to solve the system of linear equations, you can do this using the following steps:
2x - y = -1 ... y = 2x + 1
2x + y = -7 ... y = -7 - 2x
The correct result would be: y = 2x + 1, <span>2x + y = -7.</span>
Answer:
x = 36; y = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
x+6 = y
7x = 6y
7x = 6(x+6)
7x = 6x+36
-6x -6x
x = 36
_________
y = 36+6
y = 42
