Question

What would be the x intercept

Answer 1

Answer: (1, 0) or 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is parallel to y=2x-7 that means it has the same slope but a different y-intercept. Let's use b for the unknown value

6=2(4)+b

6=8+b

6-8=8+b-8

-2=b

Now we know the equation for the line is y=2x-2

Since we are looking for the x-intercept y will be 0 and we can sub that in to solve

$0=2x-2\\0+2=2x-2+2\\2=2x\\\frac{2}{2} =\frac{2x}{2} \\1=x$

The x-intercept is 1
