Answer:
4x - 12 = 28
To isolate 4x, we add 12 to both sides:
4x - 12 + 12 = 28 + 12
so
4x = 40
Now we divide 4 from both sides:
x = 40 / 4
so x = 10
400 lbs = 0.2 tons
38,600 mg = 3.86 dekagrams

Y=mx+b
parallel lines will have the same slope.
using the points (-4,6) and the slope for the parallel line -3 we can find b (the y intercept) for the line.
6 = (-3)(-4) + b
6 = 12 + b
-12 + 6 = -12 + 12 +b
-6 = b
so the line that runs through points (-4,6) and parallel to y= -3x+4 is:
y = -3x -6
Slope= (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)
Slope=(3-(-4) ) /(-14-(-7) )
Slope= (3+4)/(-14+7)
Slope=7/-7
Slope= -1
Hello! I would love to help!
The answer is -10,-1
Basically, you have to fill -10 in for x and -1 in for y in each equation. If the equations are true, that is the right answer!
