parallel lines have the same slope
The slope-intercept form of a linear equatio is y=mx+b, where m stands for the "slope of the line" and b stands for the "y-intercept of the line"
They give you the equation y= -5/6x+3 Notice this is already on the slope-intercept form, so in this case the slope is -5/6 and the y-intercept is 3
You want an equation of the line that is parallel to the given line. The slopes must be the same, so m=-5/6
So far we have y=-5/6x + b
We don't have b yet but that can be found using the given point (6,-1) which tells you that "x is 6 when y is -1"
Replace that on the equation y=-5/6x + b and you get
-1 = (-5/6)(6) + b
-1 = -5 +b
4 = b
b = 4
We found b, or the y-intercept
Go back to the equation y = -5/6 x + b and replace this b with the b we just found
y = -5/6x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-57/25 or -2 7/25 or - 2.28
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the units, 756 meters divided by 6 m/s will give you the seconds that you need.
So for A) 756/6 = 126
For B, you take the answer from A, and subtract 18 seconds, which would make it 108. Then you take the distance, 756 and divide by 108, that will be the speed.
