0 - 18 = -18
-18 + 9 = -9 ft
The slope of <em>y</em> = 2<em>x</em> - 5 is 2. Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the line through the given points <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> is also 2. This means
(8 - 4) / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2
Solve for <em>n</em> :
4 / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2
4/2 = 6 - <em>n</em>
2 = 6 - <em>n</em>
<em>n</em> = 6 - 2
<em>n</em> = 4
